Well I tried this Baume.BE stuff everyone was raving about. I was planning on using it for my G7DC starting tomorrow, but after today will shelve it for my den clearance coming up in a week or two. I may have received a bad batch; it was yellow and stubbornly refused to produce a decent lather, and believe me I tried everything - little water, lots of water, face lathering, bowl lathering, three different brushes - to no effect. The lather produced was frankly meh, and not slick at all! Thank heavens for Argan oil which did add sufficient slickness. I completed the shave, but certainly will not use this stuff again!

Other than the sub par lathering experience, the rest of the shave went well. The Saito SK3 could easily become one of my favorite razors. It delivered the same level of velveteen shave it delivered on its first outing. I loaded my Schick Type L Paul Revere with a Schick Twinjector blade and cleaned my dome stubble right down to the skin line. I’ll admit that after my mug lather, I grabbed for my faithful Nancy Boy and had a great velveteen dome shave. The Paul Revere has usually been a relatively mild safety razor, but the Schick Twinjector seemed to increase its efficiency. The shave was refreshing, cooling and velveteen despite the dud lather start. All worked well. I feel refreshed and ready for the day!
