Dry Razor Blades
Today’s thrifty living tip is dry your razor blades in between shaves. Just dab the blades gently with a towel and put it in a dry place like the medicine cabinet for storage. The water will dull the razor blades.
Yes this does work and extends the life of your razor blades. My husband shaves at least 2-3 times a week plus I use his razor weekly. Since we started using this tip, I will say we have at least added at least another 30 days of use from the razor blades.
You can also add a dab of Vaseline to keep it from rusting further. It also adds another layer of lubricant to your razor blades making it glide better over your skin while shaving.

Hi, Bonnie! Are you still selling on ebay?
This is a great tip, because the blades can get rusty pretty quickly.
I have a horrible habit of just shaking mine out, so I’ll give this a try. 🙂
Thanks for the tip!
That’s a really great idea. I had never thought of water affecting the life of my blades. I know that I sometimes keep it wet and the moisture strip gets disgusting, which isn’t good either.
