Christmas shave: Prep: Hot shower, Nivea for Men Original Moisturizing Face Wash Brush: Omega 11575 Boar Lather: Godrej Lemon-Lime Mist cream Razor: Birth year/quarter Gillette Black Handle Super Speed Blade: Bic Chrome Platinum (2) Passes: WTG, XTG (3, 4) Post: Cold water rinse, Bloc Osma Alum, Dickinson's WH, Captain's Choice Cat o' Nine Tails AS splash Cologne: Gigember Estragone by Dr. Vranjes Weird week all around left me with a few days' stubble. I nearly changed plans on my 'next in the rotation' Godrej in favor of some of the goodies I received for Christmas, courtesy of @mhari_dubh and @soapbuddy, but decided to stick with the plan. Lather was adequate for two passes; I would have needed to add more to go for a 3rd. The Bic on day 2 was very comfortable in the Black Handle SS, and with a little buffing, I got DFS results. Merry Christmas to those who celebrate.
