    Soho Joe Original Face Wash
    Jr168 Tuxedo Synthetic
    TOBS Avocado cream
    Gillette Rocket HD
    Gillette 7 O'Clock Yellow
    A little alum, and
    Nivea Sensitive Post Shave Balm

    Some great elements tonight and some still giving something to think about.

    The Rocket HD is excellent and I enjoy it, but I seem to get an easier shave with soap, as opposed to cream. Even TOBS avocado has left me with a little irritation and one weeper. Good news is now I'm getting used to the rocket it's definitely BBS tonight is 2 passes and touch ups.

    Still deciding where the Gillette 7 O'Clock Yellow blades fit in with the others I've tried - I think both these and the Polsilver were sharper than the Astra SP but all three gave great shaves.

    Williams Wednesday's Shave
    zcws.gif

    Proraso Pre Shave
    Williams Mug
    Jayaruh #235
    Gillette 195 Fatboy
    Gillette Silver Blue
    CWR
    Thayer's Lemon WH
    Aqua Velva Musk

    I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Williams Mug Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #235 synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Gillette 195 Fatboy razor and Gillette Silver Blue blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
