But always still ended up with a nick or two along with some missed spots, and the razor burn sucked. So I searched through some more reviews to see what works best for sensitive skin and landed on the Henson AL13

I just bought a sampler pack of blades to try to see if I could find a better combo. The included Henson blades were good, I'd probably rate them a 8/10, but I just tried a Feather blade in the razer and that's easily a 10/10. That was by far the closest and smoothest shave I've ever had, now I see why some guys rave about DE razors. I've also started using an alum block after shaving which helps a lot on my very sensitive neck, but with the Henson blades there was a significant stinging sensation for the first few seconds after using the alum. After shaving with the Feather blades though I didn't feel a thing, just very smooth skin

Now my only worry is that I've still got so many other blades in the pack to go through, but if none of them can compare to the feather I'll probably just toss the lot and buy a 100 pack of those
