Greetings,

Another early morning shave,

Carrying on with my soap sample week,..first use the LPL Fougere soap which is a french 100% vegan soap to be honest this vegan soap is absolutely amazing, i only used a small amount but had enough for the full shave without going back to the sample tub to add more, the post shave feel is fantastic, as was the slickness,protection & fragrance..Not 'full on' in your face, but a nice lingering scent...Both the OSP & LPL Fougere are on my soap wish list now, but not for a long while yet though..I've far to many soaps & creams to contend with & give to appreciate more before purchase anymore.

Another very comfortable 3 pass + pick ups near bbs shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of The Real Shaving Co. ~ Soothing Post Shave Balm.

My face is feeling super smooth and smelling devine.;)
;)


Enjoy your day, ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

Razor >Wilkinson Sword Classic
Blade> Wilkinson Sword
Brush> Wilkins Sword
Soap> Wilkinson Sword Black Bowl
Aftershave> Forest Fresh, Superdrug own brand

So, a near 100% Wilkinson Sword shave....and everything used in the shave can be bought on the High St for less than £15, so a good travel set up?

I was pleasantly surprised with the results - mild and smooth with 3 passes.
 
19/3


Cold water from tap
Proraso White pre shave cream
Musgo Real Lavender Shaving Cream
Clubman Pinaud Synthetic Brush

Parker Variant (set at 3)
Gillette Nacet (1)
Osma Alum Block
Boots Freshwood AS
Barts Balm Lavender ASB

Not a very comfortable shave today with a few troublesome weepers. Required the use of a styptic pencil and some with hazel gel. If I use this combination again may just dial the Parker down a touch.
