GEM G-Bar Treet/Personna/GEM Williams soap Omega brush
One word describes the Treet blade on the third shave. Ugly. Got the first pass done, but switched to a new GEM blade to finish, and my face already feels bad. These are definitely two and out blades.

Mach 3 Schick type G injector Rite Aid blade Mama Bear's Spellbound Woods soap VDH brush
Tried something new this morning. Made the lather and set it in a sink of hot water before showering. Left my face and head wet after shower and applied lather to both my head and face. Grabbed my Mach 3, stop the eye rolling ,and shaved my head, which took less than 5 minutes. Added a a couple drops of water to the soap and applied a refresher coat on top of the first one to my face and shaved WTG using the Schick. Second coat and gave it an XTG, then a third ATG pass, which I never do.
No AS. I love the lingering smell of the Spellbound Woods.
Fabulous shave. The MB soap is wondeful, and I can't help but think the five minutes or so of it setting on my beard helped soften it up. Next time I'm going to try it with VDH.
