I didn't shave on Saturday and then on Sunday I did a no shower quick hot towel shave with Truefitt & Hill Unscented Cream and the Progress with an Israeli Personna. 4.5/5.0 Result.

Result: 4.6/5.0 Very nice shave today. For some reason my skin felt. Not sure how to put it. Thicker comes to mind. I'm not sure if it was the blade change in the ACD-N or what. Weird. Oh well. The Mayan Gold is one of my Mama Bear keepers. The scent does not last but I don't expect that in my soap or cream but it smells good while I'm using it.
