My Shave today consisted of...

Prep Signature soaps shower scrub.
Brush Highlander TSR 2023 Boar brush.
Soap GFT Rose.
Razor 1912
Blade Gem.
Bowl Obsidian Copper.
Aftershave Diesel.
Today's shave was inspired by an ad on the BST for an unused 1912, bargain price FYI and I realised I had not used my own for a while.
The Signature soaps shower scrub is a must try item, I love it.
I am not going to keep banging on about how much I am loving the GFT creams, so will move on.
The razor is just lovely, pretty much a one pass and a touch up or two smoooooooth shave. Goes to show plain and simple can really be the best way sometimes.
I smell my usual super 70's porn star self and now bring on the bad music and girls.

SOTN (Head & Face)

Face - The Vector v The Remus, Feather Professional AC blade and HSSC Tobacco Oud (soap & splash)
Head - Leaf razor, Cella (red), Treet Platinum saloon blades
Alpha Outlaw brush (G4 knot)
Lucky Tiger
Nivea Pro Sensitive Ultra Calming Balm

A kind friend loaned me his Blackland SS Vector to try out, had a few shaves now and for the last wanted to compare to my Yaqi Remus. In the shave there wasn't too much between although the Remus is definitely the smoother of the two, have to say though I personally prefer the Remus design - cutting angle on the head seem more intuitive and flexible, less stylised design (making the back corners of the blade fully covered), blade also seemed a little easier to remove when wet, plus texture/grip on the handle seemed to go higher which works better for me with how I tend to hold my
razors.
