Running late this morning following a night out... in days gone by I would have skipped the shave, but I've become used to being clean shaven in the morning, so had my first non-DE, non-Brush shave since I started with a DE.
Shower
Clinique M Shave Aloe Gel
Gillette Sensor Excel Disposable
L'oréal Balm
Rubbish!! The razor felt weird in my hand. No heft and too long... I struggled to feel in control of it. Also, I only ever used one lathering in the past - so my against the grain pass was always virtually dry. At least today I took the time to stick more gel on in between passes, but it was still a really rough shave and I dread to think how quickly I would get through a canister of (£11) shave gel lathering in between passes.
The final result is fine, but my face feels much more tender than it does with a 'proper' shave. All in all, a useful experiment but I'm glad to know that the improvement isn't purely in my mind!!
