Thanked: 22 Work Bench Shave
Pre: Orange Blossom Water
SS: Williams'
Razor: Dovo Inox.
After: Witchhazel + Orange Blossom Water
Delicious! The Dovo needed a touch up, so I dug out a natural combo BBW/Coticule and leveled + beveled it. Sooooo smooth. My razor felt good to my thumb and popped arm hair. But my beard was OBLITERATED! My WTG was so on point, it took out 99.9% of my XTG stubble! All in all, it was an ultra-close and ultra comfy shave.
Cheers!
