    Friday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    Amalfi Basil Lemon
    Jayaruh #331 Boar
    Enders Speed Shaver
    Enders Speed Blade
    CWR
    Pinaud Vanilla

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Amalfi Basil Lemon Shave Soap face lathered well with Jayaruh #331 Boar brush. I did two passes with the Enders Speed Shaver razor with an Enders Speed Blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Pinaud Vanilla AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Good morning friends. A fine three pass shave today with the Pal Injecto-Matic. Marvelous, slick, creamy lather from the TFS shave soap. I finished with Fine L’Orange, smooth and refreshed. Enjoy your day friends.

    EBBD3D7A-BF68-4A32-BBFB-50C8D0945BEA.jpeg Hello everybody!

    My shave for Good Friday:

    Clean & Clear Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Wilkinson Long Handle/Rapira day 2
    La Toja Shaving Stick
    Fino ASB
    Hega AS Splash

    Smooth as a baby’s little tukhis after this great two pass shave. I can’t believe how much I’m enjoying this Wilkinson long handle razor and how fantastically it performs. The La Toja stick has such a beautiful scent, it lathers so easily, and it’s very skin friendly. The Fino balm felt so good when I massaged it on and the Hega aftershave was a perfect finish.

    Enjoy the long Easter weekend!

    Same treatment as yesterday's fine shave. Probably give it a few days more as the combo of Proraso white cream and green balm are working wonders on my skin. Should have started with them as soon as I lopped off the beard instead of splashing on my usual alcohol based after shaves. Lesson learned!

    So, how did you find the performance of the 7 O'Clock blade? I just finished my 6th shave on the current one and it's still smooth and sharp.

    Soap: Amber Rose by the club

    A/S : special reserve clubman

    The shave was awesome, this razor is soo light and it shaves amazing. If you don’t have one, get one. The soap is really good and the scent is awesome. It’s a stronger scent and it lingers a bit. I smell more incense and amber than the other 2 scents. I think it pairs well with the Special reserve as they share something similar in scent.
