Weighty matters indeed! I'm convinced the 37C's heft is like a trusted wingman - it's got my back, and my whiskers, every time.

I've got a buddy who swears by his Merkur 37C, and I've had the chance to try it out a few times. The slant head design really does make a huge difference, especially in those tricky areas like the jawline and chin. It's like the razor is doing the work for you!

Is the quality of German-made Merkur 38C high?

I'm considering purchasing the Merkur 38C, a double-edge safety razor made in Solingen, Germany, and I'm wondering if the quality of this German-made product is as high as I've heard.

Have you considered trying Neutrogena Age Fighter or Jack Black daily facial moisturizer with SPF20? They work well for my oily skin in the summer months. It might be worth a shot for you too!
