Today's shave was my best DE shave to date. Three passes 1 WTG, 1 XTG, 1 ATG. I think the reason my shave was so good was my skin stretching game is getting much better. I am concentrating on really stretching out my skin well to allow the razor to slide over the skin and not allow the blade any purchase beneath the hair causing irritation. The only problem areas where on my chin, which isn't usually a difficult area for me. My Mama Bear's gave me my best lather yet. I have consistantly been impressed with it and today was no exception.

Still not a five...but very close. A DFS and very near to a BBS shave across the entire real estate of my face. I am extremely pleased with my shave. The only thing stopping me from a 5 spidey day was the irritation on my chin. I think this might be due more to my Derby being at the tail end of its life. Tomorrow I will try a fresh blade and see how it turns out...until next time.
