Post: Thayers Rose, Aloe Vera Gel & (4711 Ice Cologne) Pecksniffs Men Professional
A nice shave today, inspired by @Bogeyman's thread in the Review section I used a Gillette Blue blade for the first time ever. I have wanted to use one for a long time but never got around to it, expecting a duff blade. It was a nice shave, not the most comfortable or smoothest blade I have used but given it's age it held up superbly. My curiosity has now been sated!
Valobra makes a wondeful lather, paired with the Americana and you're in lather heaven. The aloe vera gel is a great post shave, very cooling and calming. I receieved some 4711 Ice in the post today and couldn't resist a quick spritz before I put on Pecksniffs later, smells very similar to Nouveau Cologne with a wee bit of menthol.
