Razor: Gillette Slim Adjustable (first use, tried setting 3,5, and 4)
Blade: MenSmell Stainless Steel (2)
Brush: Kensurfs Limited Edition by DSCosmetic with Synthetic Tuxedo knot
Bowl: Daiso bowl
Pre: Proraso Green Cream
Cream: Proraso Blue Shaving Cream
Post: Proraso Green After-shave

Rating 9.5/10 - it was a slightly better than DFS day. The razor worked really well. I found it very nice, but a bit heavy. It also nicked me once, but that was at setting 5 where I had some blemishes earlier this week, it wasn't bad at all. My cheeks and lip area feel BBS, but my problem areas of the neck on either side of the chin are not quite BBS, but very close. I am so glad I was lucky enough to get this razor for a good price on ebay.

Swapped the Personna Med for a Gillette 7 o'clock yellow and got a great BBS shave which didn't feel as if it was going to be that smooth - who knew
First time with Bart's balm as I've read good things and it feels very nice - skin was slightly grabby straight after but I suspect I used too much as it is smooth now.
No irritation at all

Mikes Barbershop is exceptional! The lather may be thinner than other soaps I've been using lately, but it provides a good cushion & the post shave feel is outstanding!
