Keep trying just the cheeks and use the DE for the neck. I remember someone once told me they practiced defuzzing a peach to learn using a str8. Got practice and daily intake of fruit.

Did his legacy die with him or did he pass his recipes and business on to someone? This is always a concern with the wonderful little mom and pop operations we love so much. We lose a great person and their wonderful products unless they arrange to pass the recipes and techniques on. Will has you to mourn him at least.
Well sort of, but compared to your Independence Day its a very small thing.. Actually - up to a few years ago it was an ordinary working day.. Its a bit strange cause no one seem to be able to determine WHY we celebrate.. It could be the union with Norway, or it could be that Charles XII (Old king) died.. or... or... well you get the picture.. I have been working as usual today.. But Im having my day off tomorrow so I guess Im gonna find me a beer or two ::

The 7AM blade chatters too much and I wanted to concentrate on cleanup instead of risking a dig into my neck. I hand smoothed the soap with extra water to increase the glide factor and kept on hydrating and smoothing while I blade buffed the jawline and a couple of neck patches. The one area of Mama Bears soaps that I have to pay attention to is once I go over an area, I can't go over it again because the soap quickly dries the skin until I rinse and re-lather.
