Feather AC SS with Kai Mild blade\Gillette Parat with Gillette 'Russian Blue' (2)
Semogue LE 2011 Boar 2
Arko (face lathered)
Witch hazel
Castle Forbes AS balm

Much better attempt with the Feather today. Just stuck to sideburns and cheeks and got one tiny nick. I just need to practice and develop the muscle memory.

The rest of the kit was as good as you'd expect and delivered a cracking BBS, ready to take my parents out for their wedding anniversary meal.
