After the usual 1-2 minute hot towel prep:


vintage rebranded 1964 Macys silvertip flopmeister
"Kaily'/Feather
vintage Beter shave stick (thanks Good Doctor)
Neutrogena oil free moisture sensitive skin
Aramis 'Havana' (vintage juice)

Man oh man, what a great razor/blade combo. It's rare finding something that tames the Feather and it results in a total non resistance by the whiskers. They ain't gotta chance. No feeling of anything sharp on my face.

Since I have a bad cold the Beter made sense to use. All the scent is long gone and I can't smell anything anyhow, so good timing. Plus, the soap is quite nice, especually the post shave part. Used this maybe 6 times so far.

BBS results,

Martin
