Wednesday 20th June

Wickham 1912 Cashmere
RazoRock 400

Thursday 21st June

De Vergulde Hand
YaqI Chianti24mm Synthetic
Rockwell 6C plate 2
Voskhod (3)
Blue Stratos ASL

I've felt the need to dial down the Rockwell as the redness on my neck was flaring up a little, what getting some heat rash.
Seems to have done the trick. Although it takes more work to achieve a good shave.
 
Thur 22nd June

Omega 10005
Faena Sandalwood
Mongoose B3
Schick Proline [ 6 ]
Jaguar Prestige A/S Lotion

Managed to continue my spate of good Shaves without any problems. Found that my little used Faena produced such a rich and creamy lather that I doubt that any Razor /Blade combo would have failed to produce a good Shave.

Orange & Patchouli
Rocca & Polsilver
YaQi Mysterious

Great shave using the orange and patchouli cream for the first time. Smell was lovely if a little light for my personal tastes. Performance was great and the creamy lather retained a mighty amount of water. First time in a long time not using a Nacet and the compliant Polsilver SI did a great job being thrown around!

  • Safety Razor: Karve Shaving - Christopher Bradley - 3.5 inch / A-plate
  • Blade: Polsilver - Super Iridium
  • Shaving Brush: J&T - Number 22 - 24mm Timberwolf (Synthetic)
  • Shaving Soap: PannaCrema - Nuàvia Nera
 
No photo today - I didn't know whether the site was going to be up or not so I didn't bother taking one.

Brush: Frank Shaving 20mm Best Badger
Cream: Tri-Coastal Design Milagu Black
Razor: Gillette Super Blue (Chinese Tech), shimmed on RazoRock bamboo SS handle
Blade: Tiger Superior Stainless (5)

And this blade comfortably makes it to five shaves on a single edge. The cream isn't all that great, but I still love the scent, and it's very cooling which is pleasing on a day like today. And it's the weekend!

Happy shaving.
