  • Preshave: Cold Water "* Brush: Yaqi 24mm Synthetic ""Panda"" "
  • Razor: King C. Gillette DE Razor
  • Blade: Astra Superior Platinum (15)
  • Lather: Haslinger Algae
  • Post Shave: Williams Aqua Velva
  • Post Shave: Nivea After Shave Balm

I have no axe, and so, I shaved like the loser that I am with a DE. And I forgot to post yesterday's shave, but it was the same as today's.

Have a good day!

It's true that it's difficult under the nose, and using an axe with light pressure takes some practice.

it's difficult under the nose

I'm not sure I'd come away from the shave with a nose left to shave under.

takes some practice.

...and an iron resolve.
