I was simply not patient enough. Although I rubbed for a good two to three minutes, I did not load enough soap onto my face and brush. I usually work with hard pucks like shave sticks, rubbing them directly onto the face and then lathering up. This time something went wrong along the way. Maybe I was just a little distracted or perhaps the coffee beans in the soap got the better of me. 😄
Look forward to your next SOTD 😊

A very nice set up today, i was going to retire this blade after the shave, however, it gave such a smooth shave in the Athena i will keep it an use the same combo soon.
Had another busy day painting and refitting doors, this "new" water based quick drying gloss is brilliant to use, no waiting for hours on end for oil based gloss to set before you can do anything else, i am ready for the carpet fitters to arrive in the morning.
Have a great evening All.
