Wednesday
Same shave as Monday (which was a bit too close) but much better results - probably due to technique and a bit more beard growth
EJ Badger brush
ToBS sandalwood soap in wooden bowl
Merkur 34C, Astra blade
Hot shower
Took a longer time lathering up today, tested the lather between thumb and finger (someone said that you should not be able to feel your fingerprints whilst sliding fingers)
Plenty of brushing up
1st pass WTG, 2nd pass XTG, 3rd pass XTG/ATG touch ups (neck, jawline)
Nivea sensitive aftershave balm
Result: Beautiful shave, couple of weepers on the neck, styptic pencil took care of them.
Felt really refreshed and relaxed and "cool" against the skin whilst walking in today.
TOP QUALITY SHAVE!
