Third shave

This time put a little more water and glycerin in the uber-lather, holds up much better, I love it. Decided not to being eliminating ingredients quite yet to try to figure out the dry skin issue.

Stropping went well, I find that with a hanging strop sometimes it's tough to keep the whole edge in contact with the leather, without pressure. I applied a VERY small amount of pressure, and I began to get that sound when you know it's getting good contact on the draw. I've begun to feel the difference too, but still making sure no bend in the strop.

Tired the neck....no way. Immediately began pulling, I quickly stopped. Not there yet.....finished with the ol' Shick.
