SOTD - April 10 - April 17, 2023
In my case here's what's been working best these days living out of a suitcase.
First I splash my face with warm water. Then I squeeze a generous one-inch round blob of Harris shaving cream out of the tube and into my fingers. I wipe the cream evenly all over the area to be shaved. I might decide to splash a bit more water onto the creamed area and then begin to shave. When that's finished, rinsed and dry, I splash on the after-shave.
For today's record, Arlington's great!
