Thursday 22nd March

RazoRock 400
Gentlemen's Face CareClub Cream
Rockwell 6C plate 4
Astra SS (2)
Lime witch hazel
Lynx DarkTemptation AS

Not the best shave, mostly due to half my face being numb from being at the dentist.
The Astra SS blade has seen it's last use after two outings. It isn't as good as the SP, not as svelte and a little tuggy .
I managed a decent finish all the same though.
Roll on the weekend . . . . . .

 
SOTD 23 March 2018

Shave of the Day 18 March 2018 :)

Pre-shave - Warm shower, Tea tree face wash (Body Shop) wash followed by warm water splash.
Cream - Speick.
Brush - Omega hi-teck Synthetic.
Bowl - Hand lathering.
Razor - Muhle R41 Open comb.
Blade - Muhle De (day 2).
Post shave - Tabula Rossa, followed by Pitralon.

I was in the Muhle shop in Berlin on Wednesday and as a holiday purchase went for a Open comb razor, not realising I had purchased the R41 Open comb. SEMBO was hovering and I needed to make a quick decision.

2 shaves in; great razor, I thought that the Muhle DE blade was a little tuggy; however, no issues on the second shave.

The Speick cream is great and the Pitralon seems to linger pleasantly all day.

All the best,

Chris

Fifty shades of lavender.......

Post ~ Shower, Dalan Olive oil and Lavender soap
Razor ~ Ever-Ready 1912 British
Blade ~ Ever-Ready Corrux NOS
Soap ~ OSP - Lavender
Brush ~ SOC Badger
Post ~ Bart's Lavender AS Lotion
Scent ~ English Lavender Cologne

A fabulous shave in lavender, the 1912 paired with the Corrux blade is a match made in heaven and the scent coming from the lavender OSP was wonderful .
Clean shaven I finnished with Bart's lavender AS lotion followed by a full body spray of lavender cologne, feeling quite relaxed now! :) P.

Have a wonderful day whatever you are doing. P.
