Microtouch TTO razor
Goodline stainless steel blade
Van der Hagen deluxe badger brush
Van der Hagen deluxe shaving soap
Dark Knight pour homme aftershave balm
Dark Knight pour homme eau de parfum
Hot shower prep with Dark Knight pour homme shower gel
I started a decent lather in the soap jar and finished it out on my face. It was a two pass and trouble spot near BBS. The Dark Knight balm was heavier than I expected but very soothing and protective.

Woody weirded out, man. I turned him on to a new Feather Pro Light. He didn’t know what to do with it, so I swapped it into the SR and we got it on. I fear the Woodman might need a wider unguarded blade for better exposure. Wet faceturbation between three intentional passes, and Pluma Negra took care of the rest. My first successful complete three pass shave with an unguarded, albeit ridiculously narrow, AC blade. Not the closest shave ever but no harm, no foul. 8/10
