Sunday a.m....gray, gloomy day
Pre: any ol' handsoap
Cream: Aramis Lab Series (brushless) shave cream
Razor: Cobra Classic with Kai Mild (6)
Styptic: Clubman styptic powder
Shower: MWF and Basis soaps
Mystic Waters shampoo bar and vinegar rinse
Post: Clubman A/S
Clinique Post Shave Healer
Mystic Waters hair oil
RazoRock aloe deo spray
Clubman BATH talc , up and down
About 2 passes to get a good shave. I tap-danced around my chin to (unsuccessfully) avoid re-nicking a previous error.
The result was yet another nick and a not-so-smooth chin. Conversely, the Lab Series cream gave a really fine result
along the jaw line. Needed 2 applications, however, to get through both passes; I suppose they expect most men will
be satisfied with the results of a single pass.
