I was supposed to meet somebody for breakfast this morning and got up late. I had to rush. I didn't have time for a shower, so my beard wasn't as pre-softened as usual. The blade in my razor was a Zorrik (Super Platinum) that already had 3 shaves on it. I quickly smeared some Suavecito on and face-lathered using a boar. I rushed through the first (wtg) pass in record time and then reapplied the shaving brush without even adding more cream, so all I had was the thinnest layer of soap on my face for the second and final (atg) pass, which broke my previous record of a few seconds earlier.
I then rinsed off my face and applied some 4711. There was no sting whatsoever, and I could immediately tell I'd just given myself one of the best shaves of my life. Was it the Zorrik on its 4th go-round? The (lack of) lather? I can't figure it out, but if this is what it takes, then I need to replicate this experience.
