Crazy! Piriton has become my best friend the last few days! Nice to Blossom trees though.

Pre-shave:- Hot shower / Nivea Sensitive Face Wash
Brush:- Executive Shaving Company Medium Jock Synthetic
Soap/Cream:- Executive Shaving Company Natural Shaving cream
Razor/Blade:- Executive Shaving Company Claymore V1 / Feather Professional Injector (3)
Post-shave:- Thayers Cucumber / Epsilon Blue aftershave / Bart's Balm Rosemary and Sandalwood aftershave lotion
EdP- Alvarez Gomez Agua de Colonia

The Executive Shaving Company is where my wet shaving journey started. After deciding to take the plunge I visited there and my fate was sealed.

Today's shave is for them.

Brush, cream and razor all worked in harmony giving me a BBS finish and a smile.

I may visit them again soon but I'm terrified my bank balance won't cope as I tiptoe around the top of the rabbit hole.

Have a great weekend folks! [emoji1303]

We are glad your wet shaving journey started with us! If you need any advice on what to get next please get in touch and we will be more than happy to help.

All the best,
The Executive Shaving Company.

I just had to use the latest addition to my PAL collection. The use of a Proline blade in this Razor ensures that you get a smooth and comfortable Shave.A top quality finish can be attained with ease without any problems during or post Shave.

Prep: Valobra Glycerlanolina soap, Myrsol Emulsion
Brush: Savile Row 3824 Silvertip Badger
Soap: Tabac
Razor: Merkur Futur (2)
Blade: Perma-Sharp Super (1)
Post: Thursday Plantation Tea Tree & Witch Hazel, CRSW Alcohol-Free American Barbershop Moisturising Aftershave
Scent: Chanel Pour Monsieur

There is a reason why Tabac soap is a legend that has stood the test of time - consistent excellence in performance.
Very comfortable shave - three passes for a DFS+ result. For me, the Merkur Futur on setting 2 is slightly less aggressive than my ATT SE1.

Is that a bottle of engine oil?

That was the pre shave!

Amazing razor, the older Baili. I prefer it to the newer version.

I have the newer one also but have yet to try it. I must admit even though I have more expensive razors...........I find myself reaching for the Baili frequently

I would never have thought Castrol GTX would have worked as a preshave oil, but we live and learn
