As title says, I'm looking into making shaving legs and armpits as cheap as possible whilst still giving a good shave. If people do what is the best blades to use with them?

I have a philips Lumea that I'm going to be using with it but I'm finding my menopausal hair is much thicker than before and blunting my normal Venus razor so quickly which is going to add up

I can't confirm but many have said that mens razors are better than womens. Probably cheaper too!

Thank everyone for your suggestions. I gave it a go with a featherlight one (so super sharp) done pretty well, wasn't too bad learning and only one little cut. Will defiantly keep it going and order some of the razors suggested as it's going to be so much cheaper. The safety razor cost £12. 100 pack of razors they last 6-8 shaves is £5-£6 and I'm just using my normal shower wash very lathered up. It does take slightly longer but I'm learning and tend to turn the shower off when shaving to save on water and gas so no extra cost apart from time.
