Erasmic bowl soap

Nivea ASB
Superdrug Forest Fresh AS

Three pass, face lathered.

An excellent Erasmic-fresh shave with a three day old blade. For fun I intend to try a Derby blade tomorrow...wish me luck!

The goody-good-goodness of the Forest Fresh AS cannot be overstated for £2.50; it's a steal.

Razor : Bluebeards Revenge Scimitar
Blade : Astra SP (1)
Cream : Proraso Green bowl lathered
Brush : EJ Chatsworth in best badger
ASB : Bluebeards Revenge
EDT : Versace

Smooth shave, not the closest but its what I needed after putting a good slice in my chin a few days ago. First time with the green Astra SP's, first impressions are OK. Maybe not quite sharp enough for my liking, had to go over the same area a few times but certainly not a bad blade. I can see why people recommend them to beginners, its hard to go that wrong with them really.

Not a bad effort from the silver star, I can imagine it being "tuggy" in anything but the slant, but worked well enough. Good shave..
