Congratulations!

The only solution I can come up with for the upper lip is do like I did....grow a mustache. Seriously, I've had one for years so I'm no help to you in that area, I never could shave there without getting cut. For the Adam's Apple try stretching the skin down to tighten and to the side to get that area partially away from Adam's Apple then stretch to other side the same way. Remember; take your time, its not a race, concentrate on what you are doing and practice, practice, practice..........

Good luck on your straight razor shaving journey and Happy Shaving!
