And my theme for last night was 'Viz'
Biffa Bacon - Colonial General
Terry Fuckwitt - Schick Proline (Please note just the one blade this time just to evidence I am not a Fuckwitt all the time)
Luvvie Darling - Muhle synthetic in a delightful butterscotch finish
Eight Ace - OSP Chypre
Raffles the Gentleman thug - ADP Colonia Club
So last night was all about returning to trial a Schick Proline line in the General and curbing my enthusiasm of using two blades together which resulted in an unmitigated disaster. But I do add not preplanned and more through stupidity. Hence Viz which survives on a diet of stupidity. Life would be glum without it though.
I am not great at face lathering and so my mixing bowl came in the form of a Premier Inn cup. Perhaps face lathering might have been easier. Anyhow I did manage to whip up a very useful dollop of cream but to be honest it would be difficult not to with OSP. Their creams remain in my number one spot.
Luvvie Darling did a great job of splattering Eight Ace over my face as Luvvie always does.
Anyone have £1.49 they could loan me?
And on to the acid test. Yup, a single blade in the General really does deliver a far more pleasant shaving experience. The Schick is an excellent blade and very similar in feel and performance to the Kai Captain. It would be Splitting bristles to divide the two. Overall I do tend to get the impression there are no real bad SE blades as so far I have yet to meet any duffers and they all deliver wonderful results. No tugging, no rough shaves and no irritation. Except on those occasions one thinks multi blade razors are the way to go. Very happy here and happy because I eat lard.
The usual Cade aftershave balm gives that wonderful glowing sheen to my face while the ADP leaves its blissful scent wafting around my person. I was proud to get in to the elevator which is far more than I could say an hour earlier after a 13 hour shift on the river.
So a wonderful shave and so smooth I would be high on the list for San and Trace.
Don't be soft have a fight
