Result: 4.2/5.0 One weeper. BBS. It was a minty day. The Tom's of Maine works very well. I did find however that it is hardening up in the tube which I didn't expect. I'll have to use it more before it gets too hard. The cream gave nice lather, glide and cushion and has decent moisturizing. The one weeper was on a neck hollow. Always a tough place to shave. The super adjustable was on 4 and gave a mild shave. I could probably dial it up to 7-9 without too much trouble. With the long handle, it has a pretty good balance.
