Good morning friends. A fine three pass shave today with the Gillette Sensor 5 and Shave Secret. It may not be fancy but sure leaves your face feeling moisturized. Enjoy your day friends. ☺️

Question for you gem featherweight users. At the third use on carbons that blade really starts to put some heat into my skin Am i doing something wrong or can i fust expect 2 and a half shaves from these blades? Not sure where to ask this.

 

There is a SE and Injector thread. Might be good there. I get more shaves then that. How about with other SE razors? More shaves?

 

@Jayaruh is quiet about this I see.

 

That should read "Don't shave in a minute --- take five, Lather well with cold water, Use warm water for clean up."

 

In the first card, it says, "Correct stropping helps a good shave." You should try either palm stropping or belly stropping your carbon blades.
