Thread: First Real Shave

Well done and welcome to SRP!

To answer one of your questions - Yes, I find myself using half of the stuff in my cabinet if my shave isn't perfect. In fact, during my last shave I kinda spaced and so I had some irritation. Plus, the dry, cold weather hitting my dry skin didn't help. After the shave I did a hot water rinse, cold water rinse, Alum block, Lucky Tiger Aspen AS, Lubriderm FF, Dickinson's Witch Hazel, then more Lubriderm. By the end my face felt fine and it felt like I hadn't even shaved after about a half hour. Except for the BBS, of course.

If anyone's starting to think there's something wrong with me, I just have dry face skin, especially near my chin. I use Lubriderm FF on my arms, face and neck everyday to keep from looking ashy.
