Mmmm. Faceturbation, Finally!!! My first BBS, SWMBO Approved. I was using a the Gilette SS, Red Persona Blades, Omega boar brush, C&E Sandalwood soap and a nivea aftershave balm. 1 WTG, 1 XTG, 1 ATG with some buffing(I think its called) over rough spots. Now if you kind gentlemen will excuse me, I'll be rubbing my face incessantly. Cheers!

It really is a fantastic feeling isn't it...

Too bad it only lasts a few short hours.

Congrats! It sure is a real treat ain't it?

Definitely a treat. SWMBO declared it BBS for me, then said she didn't get what the big deal was. Guess I was a little over excited. I think I hooted or something.

Perhaps you should change your moniker to Nite Owl.

Nice one mate!
Did you find you had any irratation due to you going for BBS?
I got my first BBS yesterday using a Merkur HD, Gillette Platinum Blade, Bodyshop Cream, Edwin Jagger Super Badger Brush and some Old Spice and Nive creme to top it all of.
Made 2 WTG passes, 1 XTG and 1 ATG (which gave me a little iritation on my neck.

Ahh that is excellent.
Keep up the good work, not sure about you but when I nail a shave I hold my chin a little higher all day long

Congrats!

Well lambo, I wasn't going for BBS, actually. I just wanted to try a new blade. I've been using Derby blades, picked up a pack of Red Personas from the Wal-Mart. Threw one in and WHAM! clean face. When I thought I was done, I ran my hand over my face and only felt a few spots with stubble. Decided to try that 'blade buffing' thing I saw Mantic do. No irritation or anything.
