So the Feather Pro blades may just be too sharp for me and my latest shaving technique. Definitely got bit a couple times, but man oh man what a close, smooth, & irritation free shave. I'll eventually get some Kai Mild blades to try but for now I'll just have to pay more attention when using the Cobra. Sometimes it's nice just to whip a razor around your face and have a superb shave without thinking in a couple of passes. Guess I'll just have to get by doing just that with my Streamline and OCMM.

Sunday:

NXT Facial Wash
#6 Horsehair
Dovo Bismarck 5/8
Phyto Expert Regular SC
Phyto Expert Sensitive AS Balsam
Sir Canada Cedar AS
Chabrawichi 555 Cologne

I bought this NXT facial wash at a dollar store yesterday and it's very, very good. It has peppermint oil in it and leaves the skin feeling very clean, and it also gives a nice, mild cooling effect. www.whatsnxt.net is the website to check out for more information. The shave today was so relaxing and soothing as well as mega-BBS and enjoyable. The new version of Phyto Expert Regular cream which I received from my man Dmitry is magnificent - even if the scent is not that traditional, the lather, cooling effect, and skincare are wonderful. The Phyto Expert balsam is so soothing and protective of sensitive skin, and I love and cherish my Canada Cedar aftershave because it's been discontinued.

Have a great Sunday, boys!
