Tabacstag
This shave was not as smooth as usual.  It might be that the Personna blade I started with is a dud, and dulled after only two uses.  I switched to a Voskhod for the last pass.  No weepers or significant burning, but just not as pleasant this time.  I did not use any pre shave oil, perhaps I have become accustomed to it just missed it today.  The HIS Lather Monster made excellent überlather from Tabac cream and soap, which the Fatboy used to demolish my stubble.  I finished up with Mint Zinger because it really does help calm my skin and I did not feel like an alcohol or menthol slap today.  Shea Moisture balm rounded out this shave right and my skin feels great.
