04/13/16 Afternoon Shaved
Aftershave yesterday, where it is as a football field, the day after a refreshing swim, I play the turn Cade L'Occitane, frothing in bowl with this Chinese LS and the Schick injector adjustable in maximum dial with plus chromium blade . The handle is long and even plastic has good grip by the striated design, is light, but the angle hair gripping him a day pass good flush in favor and against takes. Floid vigorous and balsam Martins. Now if baby's skin...

Wednesday Shower/Shave

Shower- Noxzema facial cleaner, Dr. Bronner's All-One Hemp Peppermint bar soap
Pso- Homemade grapefruit PSO
Brush- RazoRock Plissoft
Razor- Muhle R41 head on a Maggard MR5 handle
Blade- Gillette Silver Blue (1)
Soap- Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements Gondolier
Thayers Witch Hazel
ASB- Nivea Sensitive scented with grapefruit EO

First go with this razor and all I can say is "Wow!" This baby is amazing. First of all is very well made, it fits together so well with zero blade play. Paired with the MR5 handle it has some weight, more than I've experienced before. It doesn't hurt that it's beautiful to look at either.

All that means nothing without performance. My usual first pass is XTG but I was honestly a little scared of this razor, I've never seen a blade so exposed before in a razor, so I went WTG first pass. Usually this results in almost no reduction but not tonight, I could have done a little touch up and called it DFS. I lathered again for an XTG pass, great audible feedback in this direction and by the end I was DFS+, only a couple areas with some stubble. I lathered again and went ATG, my usual difficult areas were mowed down easily. I don't think I've had this little hair on my face since I was 7 years old. Easily my best shave ever. I guess my beard just needs an aggressive razor. Have a great day folks!

My shave of the day

It's been a week or so since I've posted. Mostly because I've been rushing for work and doing simple light shaves. I just received some new to me products and decided to do a night shave.

Razor - fatboy
Blade - feather (3)
Soap - razorock essential oil of lavender
Brush - omega boar
Post - witch hazel, neutrogena balm
Cologne - citrus musk
Tonight's shave was rough.. That feather blade was harsh . I only had 3 shaves on it and it felt like a dorco blade.. Wow. I was so excited for the shave because of the brush and soap I got from @whiteboy_cannon . ( thank you for the trade)
The soap is amazing. The scent is simply wonderful! The lather was silky and there was some slickness!
The brush is a beast! It's huge. I love it!
Hopefully the next shave is better.
Happy shaving gents!

Two pass Gem
I tried a new technique for me with the MMOC - I went WTG-ATG and a little touch up. This left me with a close shave and less irritation. I'll use it again tomorrow to see if it works two days in a row. Lavanille provided good lather even though I used too much water. I had to reload after the first pass to get it right. The splash just makes me happy with the amazing scent to wrap things up.
Prep: Jack Black Nourishing Oil
Soap: B&M Lavanille

Good morning gentlemen. Dreamy shave this morning with the N1. Last night i refrigerated my PSO and my MITA balm, what a wonderful face feel and shave it helped produce. Silky, smooth, comfortable my whiskers didn't stand a chance! Smooth in every direction, the N1 is a very efficient razor and this has to do with the head geometry but also i believe these Injector blades don't have very much flex adding to the efficiency. Have a great shave and a great day my friends.

 

Great picture, Roby!

 

Jim, have a great day my friend.
