Razor: Parker 24C, shave #12
Blade: DuraBlade Sharp 7 a.m. Plus Super Platinum, #4 and binned
Post: Alum -> hyaluronic acid-> Captain's Choice North aftershave-> PdP balm

A two-pass, mostly DFS with a minuscule weeper and a small patch of CCS on my neck. Tried a new angle of attack in that area which made for more alum feedback there. Speaking of feedback, I thought the blade seemed like its performance fell off tonight. That's either because three is the right number of shaves with that blade or it could be due to the soap. This was an older NO soap and I've noticed with my older BarrBarr base that there is a distinct leap in performance between that and the newer NO base, which I have several of and really like. Regardless, I ended up adding some balm to compensate tonight.

I'm really enjoying the New Lupo.72 and I like it slightly more than my RR G.C .84 because with a standard blade it performs well, also it is Smooth and more a Carefree shave none threatening and very efficient IMO. The top cap is a little nicer dealing with blades both removing and installing and the top cap is also a strong design. The results are spectacular for a 2 pass with pickups for my medium beard type IMO.

Have some great shaves! Stay & think safe in these times!

Thanks for the reply. Good feedback and a good enabler too... Luckily IB is far away...
