My skin is apparently very sensitive and is maybe a little on the dry side. It's also somewhat spot/acne prone sometimes. I've never had consistent results with any type of topical creams or face washes, and I wish I knew how much of it had to do with inflammation from shaving irritation.

I guess the question would be, are straight razors better for avoiding trouble areas compared to the disposables? I know with the disposables accuracy has never been one of their attributes, so shaving "around" a spot is impossible.
