My first shave with the H2 (OC) plate was barely distinguishable from yesterday’s shave with the H1 (SB) plate -- maybe
a little more efficient without being too aggressive. Again BBS in 2 passes, WTG & ATG.

Love the game changer 84

SOTN Wednesday

prep - shower with Caprina Fresh Goat’s Milk with Shea Butter bar soap
razor - RR SLOC / RR Barber Pole handle
blade - Shaverboy Super Stainless (13)
brush - Fendrihan Classic Pure Grey Badger
soap - Edwin Jagger Limes & Pomegranate cream
post - warm water rinse, DSA “Pure & Natural” alum, cold water rinse
aftershave - Italian Barber's Amici splash
music - streaming "Radio Ndeke Luka FM 100.8" from Bangui, Central African Republic

Since I'm going through the alphabet, it's yet another cream with "Lime" at the beginning of the name (2nd of 4). Also from a 5 ml free sample, same as yesterday's soap.
The name makes it sound tasty, but the lather is really quite bland. It didn't even taste like soap. 
The scent was nice enough, but not overpowering by any means.
It performed quite nicely, but I doubt I'll buy a tube of it at full price in the future.

As far as the Amici goes, i'm glad I bought two bottles.

SOTD: Waited 'til the mail came so I could have this shave today - and worth the wait! Brett's ZT3 is like a pillow (thanks for your patience, Brett!) - and the blackbird titanium is much smoother (to me) than the SS. Hope everyone is doing well!

Significantly smoother? Oh, oh. I may have to try it, then.
