    Darn near perfect. Wonderful shave.

    Today was a "long and short of it" shave - I used the longest brush in my den along with the shortest razor I own. Yes, it doesn't take much to amuse me.

    Lubriderm unscented moisturizer
    Gillette Series Intense Cooling AS Balsam :love008 :love008 :freezing :freezing
    Aramis EDT

    I still cannot believe how fantastic my shaves are these days, and how effortlessly I get them. The Rapiras are unique and wonderful blades with good longevity. The Cerrus cream from Germany is very low-priced, and it's very pleasant, with a mild cooling sensation. ;) :D

    • EJ DE 89L
    • Astra Superior Platinum (6)
    • Vulfix Grosvenor
    • Vintage Williams SS
    • AV Ice Blue

    Outstanding shave today. The vintage Williams is so very different than the modern stuff; lathered very well and didn't dry up like the new stuff does for me and performed well too.

    4 outta 5 blades.

    Pre-shave soap: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
    Razor: Merkur Futur
    Blade: Astra Superior Platinum
    Brush: Vulfix 2234 Super
    Cream: TOBS Lavender
    A/S: Thayer's Lavender Witch Hazel, Speick Splash

    The TOBS Lavender and Speick Splash was a great combination this rainy and much cooler morning--BBS shave (of course, my trusty Futur played a role in this, also) and wonderfully refreshing! If I could sing, I would feel like singing in the rain.

    EJ89L
    Red Personna (5)
    Thater 4125/2
    MWF
    Nivea Sensitive balm
    Aqua Velva Classic Ice Blue
    Polo Sport

    The Red IP's continue to impress the heck out of me, just as smooth and sharp at shave 5 as they were at shave 1.

    The Thater brush is the anti-scritch brush, it's like silk on your face. The lather so far comes out creamier more than fluffy, which didn't affect the shave quality at all. Still thich and rich just not as pillow like.

    Thursday

    Em's Place soap, unscented
    Omega Lucretia Borgia imitation badger brush
    ED DE89L
    Iridium blade
    TSD Aftershave Milk, unscented

    The Em's Place glycerin soap produces a beautiful lather, but it seems to lack a bit in cushioning and glide compared to the TSD glycerin soap. I got a couple of weepers on my chin, had to use the My Nick is Sealed (ouch! that stings). Next time I use this soap I will have to be a bit more careful and have a really light touch.

    After using Feathers almost exclusively for months, this was my return to a more forgiving blade. I must say, I really enjoyed the shave. Many happy shaves!!!
