A blade on its last legs, a cheap cream, a cheap giphy, a cheap me, but damn, what a start to the weekend.

Sprouts and carrots all the way

Not sure if I’d want to share the pilot’s cabin with you after your sprouts and carrots intake mate :rolleyes:

Brush DS Cosmetics 26mm Silvertip
Razor Ribbon 1000
Aftershave Aqua Velva Ice Blue
Nice enough soap for the aromatic scent and lather qualities...although it can cause a slight burning sensation. The brush was very plush. Aftershave is just perfect...
This razor's edge definitely improved after going through the La Lune. Crisply keen but softer and comfortable. 3passes for a bbs-ccs result...

Greetings,

(Face & Head Shave.)

A new shave set up to start the weekend... For the rest of December I'll be using my Parker & other Indian made razors..Starting off with the efficient Parker 89R.

It's been a while since I last revisited the Gillette Winner Platinum. Another blade that ain't the sharpest but are super smooth and very forgiving, Pairing together with the efficient 89R wonderfully.

The mild, yet efficient Gillette Guard performed wonderfully mowing through my head/dome stubble with ease. The Gillette Guard is such a great comfortable razor for head shaving.

A close comfortable face & head shave with errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Nivea Men Fresh Moisturising Gel.

My face & precious swede are feeling smooth & smelling divine. ;)

Enjoy the start of the weekend, ladies & gentlemen. :cool:

First run out with a new brush that I have been breaking in. It's the Wild Hog and it's seems to be coming along nicely. I've a thing for Boar brushes at the moment and have another couple coming next week.

Another great shave with the vector, I'm dialling it in nicely now. I went for the full luxury 4 pass shave with no issues.

I was rather surprised by todays Shave, as normally I get a Top quality Shave with this Razor. I rather suspect that I have come across a dodgy blade, which is most unusual.
I did check it was loaded properly and I was quite happy with my technique, so to be safe will scrap this blade.
