Greetings,

A nice relaxing Sunday 3 pass + pick ups silky smooth shave with no errors to report.

It's been a while since i last used the Boots Cologne cream, and forgot how little was required to get a good amount of protective slick lather a great value cream which doesn't dry out on your face, and leaves a good post shave feeling to the face.

Second use of the S-M blue platinum blade, which was another great match with the non-aggressive kanzy razor, giving the razor a more efficient edge slicing through my stubble with ease...These in-expensive supermax blades are wonderfully smooth.

Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of boots ~ moisturising cream.

Enjoy your sunday, ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

GREAT VICTORIA DESERT DONGA SHAVE





Prep: DR Harris Coconut Shampoo Bar, Myrsol Emulsion
Brush: Savile Row 3824 Silvertip Badger
Cream: Musgo Real Spiced Citrus
Razor: Merkur Futur (2)
Blade: Super Iridium (1)
Post: Thursday Plantation Tea Tree & Witch Hazel, Myrsol Emulsion
Scent: DR Harris Arlington EdC

A week in the Great Victoria Desert. The temp measurement shown above was similar for 4 out of the 5 days. Thank the stars that the air conditioner in my Donga was in good working condition.
Having said that, I know that many of my Aussie Mates are well familiar with such conditions.
Three very nice shaves with this combo, and the added bonus is that the water is RO quality, so super-soft, making lathering an absolute piece of p*ss.
 
A low down dirty shave..........

This is potting soil at its finest! Damp, moist and earthy, I was seriously expecting some earth worms to spring out of the soap! The scent is spot on, but I was fooled at first sniff off the tub, as during the shave the scent slowly shifted and became an extremely pleasant fougère, very clever.
