Greetings,

(Face & Head Shave)

A new shave set up to start the weekend.

The last few weeks I've been using the Feather Hi Stainless, which have paired up superbly with all my razors. I've revisited the Gillette Nacet blade for the last remaining days of July to get a comparison with the Feather Hi Stainless.

What I like about the Gillette Nacet blade is the smoothness and efficiency of them. The Feather instantly wins for it's Sharpness, but the Gillette Nacet feels smoother, which is something I prefer in a blade over sharpness.

Another close comfortable efficient combined face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Bulldog Original Moisturiser.

My face & precious swede are feeling smooth and smelling divine.;)

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

Decent shave this morning, excellent razor and brilliant scent. A nice lavender scent with a few other odds and ends thrown in to make it a little more interesting. I'm liking the couple of Westman sets I've tried, we'll see what utopia is like tomorrow.

Hope everyone has a grand day.

Cheers

Oh yes! That was a good one. The scent of the soap is still strong. The little Blackland brush created a beautiful, plentiful lather and the Vector is a very precise razor that works perfectly with zero pressure. Two passes and a really glassy smooth finish.
