| I skipped the jojoba oil with my preshave and that might have been a mistake. The Zingari lather seemed fine but was definitely missing some cushion and glide (the absent jojoba?). Blade struggled ATG on chin. |

| Added back the Jojoba oil to my preshave and it was definitely better. More blade feel and less cushion with the Canada Soap but still a good shave. |

| Very good quick 3-pass shave with a great soap. Didn't chase BBS as it's a one-day shave and it's now time to retire the blade. I wouldn't normally shave after only 1 day but the LOTH and I are going into Boston tonight for dinner and a play ("Leopoldstadt"). |
Enjoy the play!
