I'm letting the wheel choose my baseplate and sod’s law means that it keeps giving me the more aggressive plates so I went for a gentle 2 passer today aiming for a SAS and nothing more.
Also again with the menthol! There is something perversely enjoyable about the icy blast on a cold day though so I don’t mind at all. Proraso Green splash and Old Spice are tied for my favourite splashes.
I can’t bond with the AP Shave Co Synbad though. If anyone within affordable shipping distance of the UK would be interested in a trade for a Yaqi or similar synthetic (especially a tuxedo), I’d be interested.
