    Very nice close shave this morning, BBS. Excellent skin care with the Molle, this seems to be the norm with the brushless creams.

    This injector continues to impress me. True it's the second shave, but today's was great! I found the proper angle and my shave turned into 3 passes of smooth shaving! The only problem is now I want to find other G models....Anyway this is by far my favorite injector! Small, clean cutting, right amount of aggressiveness, and it's a real looker! :)

    Prep: Cold water rinse
    Lather: RazoRock Cumba Cheech - ultra face lather
    Brush: Semogue 830
    Razor: Sledgehammer Slant
    Blade: Rapira (1); 3 passes
    Post: Cold water rinse
    Pre-shower shave goes wonderful yet again. This time with a familiar razor, albeit a new to me blade in the Rapira, and I get an enjoyably easy BBS. Now that I'm seeing how easy this is I think it's time to branch out to some different soaps to see just what is what for me.
