What soap/cream did you use today?

Had a very quick shower/shave this morning - had to be at the doc's office by 6:30 am for some tests and told no cologne or aftershave.  Really would have appreciated at least a balm once I stepped out into  that sub-zero wind chill!

Shave 19 ・ 92 g left ・ $0.84 / shave

Day 2 with the Vector SS razor (Lite plate) and a Kai Captain Titan Mild (Pink) blade. I’ve got the angle down pat. Riding the cap is the way to go for a smooth, comfortable shave. A lot of the credit needs to go to Mike’s Bay Rum. It makes such a sweet, slick lather. At the same time, it doesn’t goop up my skin with too much fat. If anything, it may be a bit drying. I like that. Leaves plenty of room for aftershave, or in my case, bay rum. My elixir of choice is Captain’s Choice Cat o’ Nine Tails. It’s potent, especially after a rough scraping. But today’s shave was so smooth I felt the sizzle for only a couple minutes.
