Monday, 11 July
Gem MM Clog Pruf
Gem SS/PFTE Blade (3)
Burma Shave Boar Brush
Proraso Cream
Barbasol Pacific Rush
I skipped shaving on Sunday but today’s shave more than made up for it. It was one of my best shaves ever and still felt nearly BBS some 12 hours later. The cheap Burma Shave brush is also working out well for me; it seems nearly as soft now as my badger brush.

Cheap Boar Brush

Witch Hazel
Old Spice

[Thursday morning I noticed some irritation around my problem area, right corner of the neck and I suspect it is Proraso since it's new to me. I could be the Witch Hazel, which is also new, but isn't it suppose to reduce irritation??]
Thursday, 14 July

Cheap Boar Brush

**no Witch Hazel

With the grain and across the grain until I figure out this beast
Much better shave but I'm taking a few days off. My face is feeling a little raw. I have a DE but I'm not sure I want to give up so quickly.
