CarrieM's sandlewood was super thick and creamy! And the Gaines was really smooth, i took a big chunk out of my lip and didnt even feel it, the only clue i had was the resistance as it sliced.

Prep: hot shower
Lather: Palmolive cream in a vintage Colgate bowl
Brush: GIBBS 210
Razor: "R. Huhn, Berlin" 6/8 lab slicer + Weltmeister 224 3/8

Shaving with a lab slicer is scary, but they do shave rather well. I might keep it to clear up heavy beard. Narrow blades are nice too
