I shaved with the Kamisori and got excellent results from the Witch hazel aftershave.
I'm using it first and then after a few minutes a drop or two of Hyaluronic acid.
This is giving me just enough moisture to make it through the few hours.
I'm going to continue this process till I actually require a bit more moisture, then the Aloe Vera Gel will be used in combination.

Took June off to satiate my Stirling Mutton tallow curiosity and got my full tub of coconut lime. Other than some new honing gear, didn’t go too nuts. Looking forward to posting here with you all again!

Fatip friday, still in.
Still impressed with the bic blade.
Still impressed with the bic blade.
Back to try again this month! As usual, full disclosure for last month... after I dropped out I ended up buying another two Haslinger pucks (sandalwood and sensitive) as they are the only two I don't have and a DR Harris Marlborough puck...then a TFS and 3 Mondial croaps (very good chance all of these won't be fulfilled as they are on an "order now and we will notify you when they are back in stock" from a website that often emails later on to say "sorry, we won't be getting any more in stock and have refunded you"...I cancelled the order for the Vielong brush as there was no sign of when it would be dispatched, but then I ordered an Epsilon instead.
Hoping this month will be better!
