Omega 11137 boar
Ach Brito Mogno
Claymore Evolution
Feather Proguard ( 3 )
Alcolado Glacial A/S splash

Though my skin is still feeling dry, todays Shave was more comfortable, and a reasonable quality finish was attained.
Looks as though I maybe getting a revised head for The Evo so that I can try other blades.

The Little Simpson never ceases to amaze me! A brilliant little brush.
Again using the stick crayon style covering the chin, dipping the tips and working it around the face, continue until you have the consistency you want. I had plenty of lovely lather on the chin and the brush was holding quite a bit for the second pass.
2 easy, very comfortable passes for an easy face feeler.
Its been a while since i used the copycat scents, this one still smells really good.
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.
 
Thursday
The Løthur Oregon plays the starring role today, it was an 'impulse' purchase after seeing it on one of @Kevy reviews on YT and I'm glad I am a bit impulsive at times. What a soap and such a great smelling accompanying aftershave. Even Mrs D said "That smells wonderful!". If Oregon smells like this, I need to go live there!!!

I've obviously still got the Superspeed with the Super Silver blade. I was enjoying the shave that much that I did 3 passes and am completely BBS. My face is feeling great - I think the splash is more akin to a skin-food type application, but is still smelling great hours after.

Enjoy the day everyone, back to the grindstone.

057A6959-FF67-4339-800F-CB3460C42B82.jpegDifferent shave although compared to yesterday,
7/10.
I really enjoyed this one although the blade is still pants, Second & Last use
don’t get me wrong it’s not blunt infact it’s not sharp either, it’s just dull boring and dosent want to cut anything lol.
Everything else was class
unfortunately the pictures dosent do the brush justice but it’s a lovely little brush from the Boycie Emporium or should i say Empire lol.
Overall Great Shave, Sh1te Blade but hey ho that’s life.
Onwards & Upwards
Stay Safe.
