Lukewarm Shower, Friedmann and Lauterjung Electric, VDH Boar, Cella, Nivea Balm, Aqua Velva Classic, G'eau Pour Hommes

Definitely my best shave ever from an 'Electric' razor :) Two passes with iced water, very nice.

Yes, I stacked two blades. It really calmed the razor down and smoothed it out. I would compare it to shaving with an EJ DE now.
