    A great shave again. The new SuperMax Blue blade knocked off my rough stubble easily in two passes, and the Gada Cool Mint cream felt so refreshing and chilly. The Anherb gel and Proraso Green aftershave were a terrific finish!

    30 day rule - Day 29
    MDC Lavender Face Lathered
    Ladas blade
    Slim Adjustable set to 8
    3 passes

    Another excellent shave. 30 days of concentrating on one method really does wonders for one's technique.

    No problem. I have been doing it that way for over a year and will not go back.

    Thanks for the nice comments. Yep, Proraso green is always a good chill, not too much, not to little.

    The SS is shaving nice so far!

    WEDNESDAY
    Today's shave was another wonderful pairing of the über-smooth shaving Otto Deutsch Hans and my favorite soap, Martin de Candre.
    A three-pass, near BBS result, finished with a cool splash of Stirling balm. Gonna be hot today (103°F)….
    Have a great Hump Day, all!
