Similar to Saturday's shave I washed my face before have with Kiehl's centella Skin-Claming Facial Cleanser (its for dry and sensitive skin, mine is dry). Seemed to do a good job and the shave felt really nice. Result with a very quick 3 pass shave, DFS and my skin feels great. I may have to buy a proper supply of the facial cleanser.

Saturday Evening
Feather Portable on Parker handle + Thai
Fido Finest
Kiss My Face Key Lime cream

Loving Fido's brush: lathers up a storm and not a single hair lost.
KMF -- superbly slick, though lacking the zing of Vulfix Sicillian Lime.
OS White Water -- very nice for the price.

NOTE: * OK, maybe it isn't a huge, opulent, grandiose sort of a dream, nor necessarily is it my only dream (though better than most sadly - night terrors *shudders* meh), but it was my dream to have a shave with a Minora razorblade in my Minora razor.- ... and it was a good and worthwhile dream due to the grand shave I had with it.
- I can even have this dream come true again, and again!
