20 February 2020 Everything clicked this morning. I think my technique is finally back to major league form after shedding my 5 month beard growth a few weeks ago. Funny how one forgets the angles, whisker patterns, etc. when only trimming cheeks and neck once in a while. Two pass, no touch-ups = BBS! Cream: Proraso white Brush: Omega 10065 synthetic Bowl: Dollar Tree salsa Razor: RazoRock German 37 slant Blade: Gillette 7 O'Clock (5) Aftershave: Proraso Green splash
