Me too!Thanks Not-Jay- helpful! I tend to automatically do the same with DE blades, but wasn’t sure about GEMs.
Thanks!

I should give this combo one more chance. Tried it once and it was quite rough. But it might be because the blade doesn't worked well in this set. Don't have a log for the shave so will try several blades.I fitted the R41 with the Yaqi Beast cap to smoothen the shave. And away we went.

Notes:
This will make an interesting shave for sure. Nacet continues to perform to my liking. I am wondering if the rough shave would have occurred using this gear as well rather than the hyper aggressive ones I was using. Or that is some fluke and these blades just came to life irrespective of the razors.
The Outlaw Classic is definitely evolving into my GOAT razor even though technically the shave stats might favour other razors depending which stats I take into account. I was reworking some of my stats and the Outlaw together with the Ares V2 are currently the top dogs using my normalised weighted average. A lot of words to state the razor is effortless in its comfort and effectiveness.
The Game Changer was equally smooth and I had a fantastic shave today.
Quick face lather today. Nice slickness and protective cushion. The brush is amazing as well. My dad set the knot relatively low giving it more backbone than I see in other pictures with the SilkSmoke. I like the setting however.
Repeated my revisited XATG stroke and it worked like a charm. I also had the impression I had less stubble than yesterday morning. Could be part of the solution of this new pass motion. ATG for the final smoothness and closeness.
Just realised that last Monday was my third B&B anniversary. Love this place and its people!!
Enjoy your shave today!
Happy anniversary!
Thanks Eric!Likewise, Team 75 Bro.

The struggle is real. I may create a support group for this phenomenon.because the LOTH did not find it an acquired taste at all

Count me in. I really liked a number of fragrances that she did not like - at first: Polo Red, Amouage Search, Montblanc Meisterstück, YSL L’Homme and my own Bay rum. I was able to tweak the Bay rum formulation to her satisfaction, but the others required a bit of …finesse.The struggle is real. I may create a support group for this phenomenon.
