A lovely relaxed Sunday morning shave with the razor that kindled my interest in SEs and had me wondering if S.E actually stands for superior equipment.
The Arko cream isn't half bad either, well the scent isn't half as bad as the soap.
All finished of with a splash of the wonderful Pashana, bliss.
Enjoy your Sunday.

Sunday morning

Pre-shave:- Shower
Brush:- Yaqi 24mm
Soap/Cream:- Soap Commander - Endurance
Razor/Blade:- Merkur 25C with Gillette Silver Blue (6)
Post-shave:- Humphreys Witch Hazel and Bulldog After Shave Balm

It my first time trying a Soap Commander product and I really like the shaving soap. It lathers easy, it is slick and skin feels nice after the shave. I really dig this scent. It was also the first time trying witch hazel and I also really like it.
I think my test with the GSB-blade has come to an end. Five shaves were enjoyable, the sixth was stretching it a bit. No tugging, but the blade got noticably duller and the shave took some "work" and quite some back and forth.
So, during the last seven days I got some experience with the GSB, learned something and found two new products that I quite enjoy.

Greetings,

A relaxing sunday morning 3 pass + pick ups dfs shave with no errors to report.

The dove Men+care cream excelled the shave, making my sunday morning shave a pleasurable experience.

Finishing the shave off wonderfully, with a generous splash of nivea men ~ 2 phase a/s lotion..This is becoming one of my favourite a/s lotions, it doesn't get top marks for it's fragrance, but it's performance & post shave feeling are superb.which is the most important part of a A/S lotion in my personal opinion.

My face is feeling silky smooth & irritation free.;)

Enjoy your sunday, ladies & gentlemen.:cool:​
