DORCO :: RAZOROCK :: MONDIAL :: GENTLEMENS REFINERY
In Oaxaca, Mexico for another week. The Dorco is an amazing shaver, and today was the best lather I've gotten from the Mondial. Lots of water and a frothy lather performed beautifully. Have a great week everyone.

That's a fantastic set of pictures - cheers - I.
Thanks very much.

Razor: Rockwell 6C (6)
Razor blade: Polsilver
Brush: shavemac unique
Cream: Trufitt & Hill Grafton
Post: Thayers witch hazel and Fine American Blend
Second outing of the 6C and you'll all be surprised to hear there were no issues....really. OK I'm still not a fan of the over hang of the blade and the head is a tad too bulky.
I changed the blade from the Gillette 7 o'clock yellow. Changed to the Polsilver as recommend by a couple members, thank you. What a difference a blade makes.
I also moved up to plate 6 and found this combination a lot move comfortable and efficient.
A quick mention on the T&H cream. I really love the stuff. When I'm not sure what to go for I usually pick it up. Great performance and great scent.
There you go, short and sweet, just like me.

Pre-shave: Wright's Cold Tar Soap (face wash after sauna)
Razor: Hone 15a
Blade: Gillette 7 o'clock Yellow (Day 4)
Brush: Omega synthetic Barbour pole
Soap: OSP Lemon
Post shave: Myrsol Lemon.
Getting better shaves by shaving every second day and after a stint I. The sauna and steam room. Also decided to stick with the Hone 15a, having also packed the ikon 101.
Still convinced that the hard water is making shaving more difficult than normal. Still getting the odd shaving rash, albeit less so.
Have been looking for a Myrsol (on Ibiza) not seen any yet! Quite surprised.
All the best,
Chris

Evening Shave.
Baxters of California Face Wash.
MWF.
Vulfix 404.
Merkur Progress (3).
Gillette Nacet (1).
Thayers Witch Hazel (cucumber).
Alcolado Glacial splash.
I bowl lathered the MWF today, and although the result was decent, I much preferred the face lather I achieved yesterday. First use of a Gillette Nacet (courtesy of the very generous @patw) and I was very impressed. Very smooth with absolutely zero irritation, and a lovely close shave. 3 passes with minimal pick ups. Very muggy in London this evening so a splash of the Alcolado Glacial to finish off.
