Hog before and After Shave 8

After 8 shaves, the GEM is now going pretty well. I didn’t have any irritation today even with a third pass atg. The brush is getting easier to splay, but damn if it isn’t a hungry and thirsty beast. I added a bit more soap to load today. When I started lathering up, I got that yogurt consistency. I added water splashing it on my face and dipping the brush in the mug. Finally ended up with a good lather. First two passes went by without issue, so added a third to my face, but not the neck. I got very close to bbs. The aftershave splash was not stingy, and applied the balm for a bit of moisturizing.

Overall, best shave so far this month. I hope they all go this well.
