Smoothest Shave Ever

Today I did something different in my prep. Instead of washing my face with soap I rubbed my brush onto a puck of MWF and rubbed it onto my face. I let it sit there a minute while I prepared a uberlather of MWF + Gillette menthol (from Argentina) + glycerin. Next came a hot towel and and washed my face off. I could feel what MWF did to my face: incredibly smooth. Next I applied the lather and shaved. The razor just glided over my face. (Of course, the Personna Medical Prep blade I used helped, too.)

Those happen here and there. Eventually, they will be more frequent!

Jim, excellent job!

Learning to leave the lather on for 3-4 minutes before starting shaving was the single biggest factor in improving my shaves this year.

+1 for me too.
When I don't want to fight to keep my shower mirror clean enough to see in, I lather up as my last step in the shower, and then shave after toweling off.

keep up the good work
