Most definitely not what I just had;
Gillette Fatboy @7
Gillette 7O'Clock Black
Yaqi Deep Purple synth
Phoenix & Beau Imperial Rum

All things I have used before with perfectly good results, but for whatever reason, today was horrible. I'm guessing it was a dud blade (was first shave with it).
Worst razor burn I've had in years, several nicks including a cut just below my bottom lip. Alum stick all over (owwiieeeee) and a healthy slathering of Natio Calming Aftershave Balm though my skin is most definitely NOT calm yet.
Today's shave gets a 1/10 because at least I'm clean shaven...I just look like Freddy Kruger.
