Monday shave after 3 days of not even getting close to a razor of any kind:

Hot shower
Kent's Luxurious Shave Soap
Kent BK2 grey Badger
1st Pass with a GEM Junior & a Ted Pella blade
The following 2 Passes were then done with a 5/8+ Joe Chandler 1/4 hollow
Patyka Organic Face Toner (with Witch Hazel & Spearmint)

Wishing everyone an excellent start into a new week!
 
11/16 LarryAndro Special (WTG)
Merkur HD with Feather blade (day 3) (ATG)
Vulfix Sicilian Lime Shaving Cream/GFT's Limes Shaving Soap superlather
Mama Bear's Lime EO Winter Aftershave Balm

I'm SO slow with the straight! I did the second pass with the DE to hurry things up and ended up nicking myself a couple times. No nicks from the straight though. Other than the nicks from the DE, DFS. :001_smile

After the incredible success of this shave yesterday I didn't really even need to shave today. So just to be safe I did a simple buffing/touch up pass before heading off to work. I used an A1 Diplomat, Feather, ToBS Rose SC and my hands. I've NEVER had a shave last this long.
