Lately I’ve been shaving every day and it seems to be working well. With a mild razor like this one and a good lathering , no fancy pre shave products are needed. For me I mean. I never imagined I could consistently shave everyday with no discomfort. Cool, I am very pleased with these results!
BTW: The scent of the Mr. Taylor’s cream is awesome.... I will always have it in my rotation.

Nice effect. Works well. Sometimes those sketching apps can be tricky to dial in (unless, of course, this is an actual sketch, in which case I apologize).
