I found that wiping down Gillette cartridge blades with Isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol after use significantly improves their longevity, specifically how long they keep a sharp edge for.

Shake off the excess water, splash some rubbing alcohol on them and shake that off. I think that slows the oxidation on the blade. They seem to last many months this way.
