PAL Golden Injecto Matic

Alum Rub/Rinse Off
Myrsol Antesol A/S lotion

A most interesting Shave, after 4days with a modern SE [ Claymore ] , switched to a PAL Injecto Matic one of my favourite Injectors. This razor was equipped with a blade on its 4th outing as was the Claymore yesterday. Straight away the difference in size and weight was noticeable , once started the shave was smooth and comfortable, but because of the difference in weight I had to make a conscious effort to avoid applying pressure on the Razor during the shave. The finished result was very similar in terms of quality, but felt that it took longer with the PAL , as it covered a smaller area with each stroke.

Excellent shave with the PAL Injecto-Matic this morning. Wonderful, creamy, protective lather from the Arko Extra Performance shave cream. Highly recommended. Three easy passes for a dolphin smooth finish. Have a great day friends.

 

Beautiful PAL Jared!

 

Nice picture! How's the Stirling Christmas Eve?

Feather Super Pro (7)
BSB 2 Two Band
MdC Original
Witch Hazel
Fine Lavender

​

The BSB just seems made to work with MdC. The size of the brush makes it very easy to load the soap from the container. Even better the 2 band knot provides good scrub and no scritch as I face lather. I really like this little brush. Believing in "No need to fix something that works", I stayed with my a 2 pass, XTG &ATG, shave followed by minimal touch ups. Not feeling the need to chase the baby, I ended up with a near BBS which is more than acceptable. I finished up with a splash of Fine Lavender. I hope everyone has a great Wednesday.

 

What is your favorite soap of theirs? Do you buy directly from them?

Top notch shave again this morning with Stirling Ozark Mountain. Stirling works so well. Slick, protective, easy to lather, and great scent. This is a sample and it seems as though it will provide plenty of shaves. Great result in the end!

Have a great day!

 

Although I got a very good shave just now I'm beginning to doubt the quality of the Dorco blades. It seems that after just three shaves they start getting dull and they start to tug a little. I'll try this one for one more time tomorrow, and if necessary I'll change it. At least the SuperMax Menthol cream lathered rich and creamy from just two small dabs on my chin and cheek, and its scent is like a cough drop - it's kind of nice. It's got a fairly-good cooling effect and its skincare is excellent. The Rubby Dubby Doo hit me with its own special freeze!
