!Today you will!< get to see me make use of my NOS Travel Tech for the first time today; just look at that adorable pouch! Made in Argentina in Q1 1967 (based on the N-1 stamp), you can tell it's >!be!!engraved with!< Gillette branding on the cap >!screams!< "quality potmetal". The tiny 2" handle was actually easier to use than I was expecting; possibly because this thing weighs next to nothing. The light weight made it super easy to do the WTG pass; however going ATG was a challenge. This razor is >!LOUD!<! It also bounces around on my face, especially against the grain. It was >!like driving on!< a farm road! As >!you'r!!face!< any favours. Needed to go >!for a third pass because two wasn't enough!< with this razor. With the three passes my skin felt decently smooth; though >!the mirror told me,!< that my skin probably wouldn't have appreciated either alum or an alcohol-based splash.

For the theme I used both the Cerberus soap and balm. I really like the scent, but it makes my nose tingle and run for as long as the scent is given off. This is why I've kept it stored away >!for half a year!<.

Thinking of "Happy Together" I couldn't help but picture Dr. Evil and Mini Me singing "Just the two of us". So naturally I had to also pair my largest brush with my tiniest razor.
