First day with the AdP, lathered quite well but noticed that once in my face it "vanished", not drying, but getting thinner, do not know if evaporating or being absorbed by face, good shave anyway, although some irritation in the neck, but that may well be the TOBS Lavender I used yesterday, I have the impression that cream is passed (quite liquified)....

Ah, I know what it is - you didn't swirl it enough in the bowl. Also, you might want to try a tad less water. Good luck and let us know how you get on!

I got it in mediocre condition so I removed the blade, restored it on my buffer and cleaned up the scales. Peened it back and voila. Originally Posted by bknesal
