Care one witch hazel
Brut aftershave
Warm shower prep with Dial antibacterial soap
Crazy morning. I had time to grab a two pass shave with two blades. My first blade was a dud and just refused to cut. Second blade finished the job but I didn't keep it. It's about time to finish these. Witch hazel tightened things up and Brut finished the job.
