SOTD : Saturday 30th December 2017 - Friday 5th January 2018.

Mon 1st January
RazoRock Syn. 22mm
Cyril Salter Solid Soap
Gem Jnr 1912- brass
Gem S/S ( 4 ? )
Pitralon Polar A/S lotion

After a week of self indulgent Injector Shaves, they are so easy and hassle free I had to move on to
Vintage SE.
This is a definate change of pace, as much more care and attention is needed than when using Injectors. Still I found the Shave quite enjoyable, especially as the finished Shave was nice and close all round, and was achieved without mishap.

Evening shave.

BBA Face Wash
Wickhams 1912 Classic 24
Omega 10098 Boar
Little Wren Pottery
PAL Injectomatic
Japanese Schick (1)
Fine Platinum Aftershave
BBA Post Shave Balm

I'm sure I say this every time I use it, and apologies for sounding like a broken record, but the Injectomatic is such an efficient little beggar. The blades were a kind gift from @Acer89. James is a good man and he certainly knows his stuff.

I hope you all have a happy and healthy 2018.

Second time using the MDC. Loaded the brush a little longer and had much better results. The thing I really appreciate about the scent is how natural it is. It's not overpowering but it's there throughout the shave.
The lather isn't particularly thick but it gives good protection and glide.

I didn't change my set-up much from my last shave. Only the brush and aftershave (which is great BTW).
I'm going to try not to swap everything from one shave the next this year. Will see how long that lasts.:rolleyes:

Anyway it's Happy New Year from me and it's Happy New Year from him...:D

For me, there are no rules when it comes down to fragrances. I wear what I like, because my choice of fragrance is largely based on occasion or mood, rather than if it's masculine, feminine or unisex.

I don't think I can ever get that image of Mrs Doubtfire out of my head whenever I see one of @Norfolkdick posts (sorry Dick)!
