Pre: Proraso Sensitive Preshave
Brush: Razorock Plissoft
Soap: Palmolive Stick
Razor: Ever Ready 1912
Blade: Personna Gem (8)
Post: Cold Water rinse / Boots Tea Tree and Witch Hazel
ASL: Adidas Pure Game

Nice straight forward shave with a great result. Can't really go wrong with the Palmolive stick. Just one small weeper above the lip, which is my only real trouble area. I think I get greedy chasing a perfect shave.
Topped off with the excellent Boots Tea Tree and Witch Hazel which quickly resolved the weeper. The Adidas ASL Is surprisingly good too, although its inoffensive scent fades very quickly.

Have a good evening.

Cheers
Steve

Greetings,

A early morning lavender themed shave.

The fatip grande/ gillette 7'oclock s.s. duo worked together superbly, mowing through my stubble with ease, the fatip is a very efficient, but smooth o.c. razor, the gillette 7'oclock s.s blade has been consistantly good with every shave and matched up well with each razor i've paired it up with, today again was no exception..Both the gillette 7'oclock Super Stainless & SharpEdge are excellent blades, which i highly recommend.

Another very comfortable 3 pass + pick ups near bbs shave with no errors to report.A very enjoyable shave.

Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of Morrisons ~ Aloe Moisture Lotion.

My face is feeling smooth, & smelling devine.

Prep: Valobra Glycerlanolina soap, Myrsol Emulsion
Brush: Semogue Owners Club Boar
Soap: La Toja
Razor: ATT SE1 / UFO Tornado
Blade: Schick Proline P-30 (4)
Post: Thursday Plantation Tea Tree & Witch Hazel, CRSW Alcohol-Free American Barbershop Moisturising Aftershave
Scent: Alvarez Gomez Barbaria

One of those iconic soaps that I was always gonna get around to trying, but hadn't as yet. Well, I can tick this one off, and what an impressive soap.
I loaded the stick to my wet face for about 30 seconds as per normal for me, and slowly added water as I lathered. Very easy to generate lather, and a subtle clean scent.
Performance was very good, nice razor glide and slickness. The lather was dissipating a little at the back end of the 3rd pass, but this may have been due to underloading.
Three passes for a very comfortable BBS result. Post shave was pleasant; not quite as moisturising as some of my best soaps.
Clearly a soap that deserves its reputation, and a bargain at the price.
