    • post: Kruidvat Aftershave balm sensitive

    Cold water shave because I don’t wanna die. With other razors I can use paste or my finishing stone to revive the edge but with this one I only seem to have success if I drop down to 8k. This aftershave balm tingles a bit but I have been noticing that my skin gets quite red from it. I thought it was some kind of disinfection ingredient or something but I am starting to think I might be a little allergic to it even though it says sensitive on it. Unrelated: it is a gym day and my gym is kind of a sauna with its broken air conditioner. So lately the objective has started to shift a bit from progressing to surviving the ordeal 🤣. Luckily I can face this battle with a decent shave at least.
