    Shave number four of my "Riding the Cap" focus. Another fantastic shave! 3 passes WTG, XTG, ATG and I am BBS and still irritation free. I haven't been going ATG because normally this causes me to have an outbreak of ingrown hairs but after last shave I had none, I attribute it all to riding the cap. So in my search for a 3 pass shave that rivals the shaves that I get with my G1 injector I am confident that I have found it in this formula. I am ready to move on to another razor and see if I cant replicate my results with the same technique. Have a great shave everyone!

    Thank you, Robert :) The scent of Gillette Arctic Ice is also very nice and stays for hours on the skin.

    Haha yes!

    I'm a big Pitralon fan.

    Here lately classic and pure have got the most face time.

    I'm glad you like them as well.

    They fly under the radar sometimes.

    I think they are a well kept secret in the USA. I mentioned then on B&B numerous times when I still frequented that place, and also reviewed the Classic, but there wasn't much interest really.

    PAA Doc / Rapira SS (1)
    Stirling Glacial Wintergreen
    Erskine Vintage Imported Badger
    Every Man Jack Mint Face Lotion
    Aqua Velva Classic Ice Blue
    After 3 days of fighting with the BRO shaving soaps, it is great to use Stirling. Easy to load and makes staying lather and provides great slickness. The DOC loaded with a new Rapira SS blade knocked down the days growth with ease. Finished with Classic Ice Blue for a great start to the day. Have a blessed day Gentlemen.
