I had an extra hour this morning with the end of DST. With the extra time I played with my shaving routine.

After my shower (and before coffee :scared:) I used the following:

Omega Silvertip
TOBS Avocado cream
Merkur Long Slant (39C?)
Iridium blade

Yes, you read that right, a slant razor before caffeine. I was on my toes but I'll credit the TOBS cream with protecting me. WTG, ATG and XTG passes were smooth sailing.

Since I seemed to have something good going on I followed up with some J hooking and blade buffing using a Gillette Tech and an Astra blade. As I type I am stubble free.

Witch hazel and some Nivea balm closed the show. Nice to know I can actually get these kind of results.

Congrats and welcome to B&B.
Great set up. (Yes, the 39c is the long slant). Slants are amazing, and I have heard lots of great things about TOBS avocado.
Happy shaving.
