SOTD 13th May 2022 - Modern May Challenge (8)
Pre-shave: Hot Water & Proraso Green
Lather: Proraso White
Brush: Benny's Synthetic
Razor: Gillette Guard
Post Shave: Old Spice & Scottish Fine Soap's Thistle and Black Pepper Balm
Something a little different today. I thought I'd give the Gillette Guard a go and see if it would be good for me as a travel razor. In short, it's quite good for what it is and the price. Provided a pretty close shave after three passes. At the time it felt smooth and comfortable, but 30 mins after the shave. I had quite a bit of redness on my cheeks and chin. I think this was partly down to my technique and partly down to the razor. All in all not bad! 3 pass DFS (WTG, XTG, ATG).
