Going to try something different this month: will use one of the razor systems for the week, only rotating brush and software.
This week will be Wilkinson Sword Empire set.
Today was Ever Ready boar with Whoo's the Man Victory soap, which I can only use occasionally or it causes irritation and burning. Used sparingly, I like it, slick with a warm spicy more.
C&E Nomad balm to close out the morning.
Good smooth shave, with the exception of opening a small Nick on above my lip I have myself yesterday with the straight.
