Razor: Gold Dollar 100 (with Sungari edge)
Soap: PAA Sci Fi Lime!
Brush: DSCosmetic
Post Shave: Neutrogena Hydroboost Nourishing Cream
Mediocre shave. That Sungari edge had the blade get caught on almost every hair. Very tuggy. To its credit, it did shave off the stubble, but not smoothly like a properly honed edge. I might play around with it a bit more while I save up for a better finisher.
