I'm really surprised with this blade and am liking it a lot. Go for day 5 on this blade? Sure, why not? Now go enjoy your day folks.
That Glacial Wintergreen trio is absolutely heavenly - frigid cold, perfect lather from the soap, the matching balm and witch hazel give wonderful moisturizing and plenty of additional freeze along with that lovely wintergreen scent. Another A-1 shave!
SOTN August 3rd Ikon X3 Slant GSB (2) DR John's Hydra Satin Tip The Purest Homemade tangerine AS Good morning friends.I had an awesome shave with the X3 last night. A night and day difference from my first shave with it. I started if by making a super slick, delicious smelling, lather with the hydra and put the razor to my face. Knowing that riding the cap didn't work I went the opposite direction and was close to riding the safety bar. Bingo! That was the trick, the razor cut close and efficient! 3 passes later man I'm smooth, welcome back baby! No feedback from the alum. And my homemade tangerine AS made for a divine paring with the hydra. 10 hours later and I'm still feeling smooth! Have a great day my friends!

Tobacco Thursday Excellent shave today with this WSP combo and the Futur. I applied the PSO to my wet face after washing and waited a bit while I loaded my damp HIS brush. It took less soap than I thought to make yogurt goodness. Three drama free passes with my Futur on five and I'm feeling great. The balm provided a nice cool on a hot day.
