Post: BBA Aftershave balm

Many thanks go to James AKA @Acer89 for the loan of the razor. He also sent me the soap sample and Neutrogena face wash.

The Musgo Real sample performed very well. Lathered up with no issues with plenty of slickness and protection. The scent is very mild and non offensive.

Onto the razor. I'd watched a couple of YouTube videos on the Wunderbar yesterday (living the dream ;))

The general consensors was to use a very light touch and I completely concur.
In my limited experience it felt similar to the R41. Although it was much smoother and kinder to your face. After using the R41 I felt as though I'd been skinned alive.
Thankfully this wasn't the case with the Wunderbar . The finished results were very, very close without any irritation.

I'd planned on using Pitralon to finish off with but decided to go for BBA Aftershave balm, just in case.

Thanks again to James for the loan of the razor and gifts.:D

Have a good week gents.
Cheers
Rob
