Friday 20th July

4th DE shave

Razor: Merkur 34c
Blade: Personna (new blade)
Pre: Shower including Nivea Face Wash Sensitive. Nuage shave oil.
Soap: Executive Shaving Natural cream
Brush: Executive Shaving Medium Jock synthetic
Post: Next Signature Nuit EDT (SWMBO loves it [emoji6]) then Nivea Post Shave Balm Sensitive

I got a new lather bowl from Home Bargains today, the tapas bowl (?) as suggested in other threads, and it's made a big difference. Heating it up and keeping it in warm water gave a nice warm lather. Plus I used the Nuage shave oil as suggested by @Kevy in his videos.

Just simply....wow.

3 passes - WTG, XTG then ATG with a final touch up and I'm BBS again.

No irritation this time. Learning the direction of my growth has helped massively. Also holding the razor like a dart and not pressing it against my skin makes it even more enjoyable.

Thanks again to everyone who has taken the time to help me and give advice.

I'm hooked.....line and sinker!

So much to do around the house package boxes getting ready to move in 3 weeks for my mother is going pretty quick, my mother is still mentally scared, stressed and very emotional about her home.

My father will be out of the Sydney Clinic mental hospital on Monday and will be moving into RSL LifeCare retirement villages, my mother will be living very close by in the same complex as my brother that way she'll feel safe.
