How do I store the razor?

What kind of shaving cream should I use?
Any shaving cream or gel designed for women's razors will work well. For sensitive skin, use a cream formulated for that purpose.
Is the razor suitable for sensitive skin?
While the razor provides a close shave, individuals with very sensitive skin may experience irritation. Consider using a sensitive skin shaving cream and test the razor on a small area first.
Troubleshooting
