Quicky in the morning before work Wednesday Hot shower +VGH bath soap. Muhle Superbadger Gillette No66 /Feather /2 passes. Tabac Soap Stick :drool XS Pour Homme by Paco Rabanne Anherb a/s lotion lots of it... Quercus by Penhaligon EDT. The Tabac peforms time over time leaves behind so many soaps in protection I reach for it when time is of essence and I dont have the time to watch out for technique only had 5min for the shave so need a dead sure lather Tabac Stick provides that. Had some Acne build up... the Feather dug itself nicely into it and took a chunk of skin off started to bleed some hence the over use of Anherb. I find myself more and more being drawn to shave twice a day dont like the stubbly feeling at all anymore and since I only do 2 passes im thinking I might get away of shaving twice a day it would only be 4 passes totall.

Thursday: Dovo Prima Klang Kent BK4 Trumpers Coral Skinfood (pre) MB Joe's Trade Wind ss alum Dominica Bay Rum QED ASC Great shave today. Now that I've discovered the Skinfood as a pre-shave-treatment I don't wanna miss it anymore. It helps my dry skin and also prevents the usual sligh redness on my neck from appearing. I also managed to do what Rene did yesterday: I beheaded a pimple. Nothing the alum couldn't fix, though
