Today's shave (and first SOTD pic ever! - finally got a new charger for my camera)
Old Spice Soap (unwanted gift passed on from my father)
Semogue 2015 Brush
EJ 89 razor w/ Astra Blade (first shave on this side of the blade)
Witch Hazel for AS splash (first time trying this one out - too early to tell if I like it or not).
The shave: I had to rush a little, but went alright. A few weepers from the fresh side of the blade, and a little burn on the chin (lather issues for first pass), but otherwise good.
And now, my terrible photo!!!

It was nice and smooth.
