Skin feels a bit sore from the Injector blade, and it doesn't feel that close...

Seven out of ten. Loved the violet cream as always but the modern Old Spice burned more than I'm used to although it quickly dissipated. Blade still magic without the slightest hint of degradation. I slapped a little of the OS on the back of my neck and bearing in mind this was a fairly early morning shave for me i.e. pre-nine, the missus could still detect the the scent at around half past nine in the evening when she asked as to what aftershave (for a man, it's all aftershave to her, with no distinction between AS, cologne, EdT or EdP whatsoever) I was wearing. I asked why and she said that she liked it was all. Seemed quite surprised when I told her.
Lazy today, with just a splash of Mr Taylor's behind the neck and two fingers to the rest of it. Aye and a fag between them same two fingers an' all!

Just a quick single pass ...
Hot Towel
NSS Unscented OO & Goat Milk
Pure Badger 23mm
Schick E - Personna Stainless [3]
Hot Rinse & Cold Rinse
Brut Aftershave
Face Lathered
One Pass - WTG
Just a quick single pass to neaten up yesterday's difficult shave, difficult in that I could not grip with my right hand so everything was left-handed. Today, still painful to grip, but I can just about do it - lathering was left-handed.
Great to be back with an NSS soap - the unscented olive oil recipe with added goat milk is just lovely. Slick, smooth and very nourishing.
Last shave with this loaner Schick E before it wings its way home tomorrow. I've enjoyed it!

Prep: Hot shower, L'Oreal Daily Purifying Facial Wash
Brush: New Forest Tubby 2
Soap: Irisch Moos Stick
Razor: Digress HD
Blade: Wizamet Polsilver #2
Post: Weleda Smooth Shave Toner, Weleda ASB

Result: Top scrape once more. I even managed to resist chalking on too much soap so I didn't end up with a lot of gunk on the blade!
Good day to you all.

One up, one down and one to polish in just a few minutes and I had a near BBS shave.
I accidentally loaded tons of soap on the brush this morning, this mixed hair not is a destroyer of soaps and it certainly went to town on the Cella, should really have a coffee first so that I feel a bit more awake. I think I had enough lather to shave my whole body...I did not shave my whole body!
