Another mental face freeze experiment tonight. I decided to try the Feather AC on just one day's growth again. The last time, it resulted in some burn. Hence the heavy mental presence.
It must have been crap technique the last time, because it went fine tonight. Not BBS around the chin; but more than presentable and smooth enough. Crucially, no burn. Well, not from the blade.
The Denali, on top of the Proraso, was pretty cold. By the third pass, I think I began to crystallise. A little bit of thawing after the Thayer's.
Then the Alcolado Glacial.
As
@Digimonkey and
@Barry Giddens (the architects of my diploma in freeze-ology) have pointed out, this stuff rips the heart out of Proraso M&E aftershave, tramples on it; pours scorn on it; reduces it to tears and ensures it suffers from an inferiority complex for the rest of its days. It burned at first...then it froze. I looked like a mosaic from Ravenna. I have now thawed.
I can't wait to use this in warmer climes. A touch of BBA to finish and I'm feeling good.
