That was a week, that was, shave
Erasmic + Ingram shaving cream
Anbbas Amber 24mm tuxedo synthetic
Muhle R89 Twist
Rainbow Super Stainless
Homemade splash (witch hazel and essential oils)
Forest Fresh ASL
Nivea Replenishing PSB
Change of format felt right.
Well that was a week to reckon with. Lost Bella on one Saturday then gave my daughter away at her wedding the following Saturday (suppose in TSR parlance I PIF’d her!) With a week of highs and lows in between. My daughter and my new son in law are both autistic and have assorted learning disabilities, so it was a busy week for both families, but worth while as everyone had a great time. But a week of ups and downs for my wife and I.
Anyways, back to this shave, I picked up the Erasmic cream at Savers the other day, but it surprised me by being both a liquid cream (a bit like the Nivea Liquid Shave Cream) and being reluctant to lather nicely for me. Added a dollop of Ingram and it went better, quite creamy and slick but not as cushioning as I would have liked. The Rainbow blade on it’s second use felt like some of my other blades on their fourth outing, maybe two is it’s limit. Not bothered if it is, as they were ridiculously cheap. Despite all my whinging it was actually rather a nice shave, and left my face feeling and smelling very nice.
