I've just used a WS classic blade in the EJ 89. I'd showered and used conditioner on my stubble. I made up a lather of Boots cream. I did a three pass shave and afterwards used bloc alum.
The end result was better than the 5+ passes I've done with the Derby and Astra SS blade, but my skin feels raw. To my surprise the Alum didn't sting at all, I've put some balm on to try and calm my skin.
This is the first time I've made a lather with the cream, brush and bowl, so I spent a good few minutes working the cream.
What just happened? Is that the effect of a shaper blade, rubbish lather, etc. Any idea's
Cheers
