Third Time's the Charm?

  • Brush: Zenith B8 (XL aluminium handle, 28 mm × 57 mm boar)
  • Razor: Razorock Hawk V3 (standard plate)
  • Blade: Feather Professional
  • Lather: Chicago Grooming Co. AG 1889
  • Aftershave: Chicago Grooming Co. AG 1889
  • Fragrance: Creed Wind Flowers

I decided to give AG 1889 another chance after burning me the first to times, because I really enjoy this scent. I've started a moisturiser routine in the evening a while back, and I was wondering whether it would impact my sensitivity to the fragrance oils in AG 1889.

The answer is "a little". I didn't feel a tingling until the third pass.

Tingling aside, great shave with Wally's super intuitive Hawk and the Darkwing base.
