What soap/cream did you use today?

Mike’s Bay Rum (Mike’s Natural Soaps) bay & bergamot
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.

I find this interesting. I use alcohol based aftershaves exclusively. If there is no sting at all I pat myself on the back for my good technique. Usually this is the result if I limit myself to two passes + a light touch up pass. If I do four full passes usually my aftershave will sting, but only for a few seconds and I consider that a rough shave. If the stinging went on for minutes I would conclude that something was seriously wrong.

Is my experience that different from the rest of you guys?
