Menthol Monday's Shave Cold Water Rinse C.O. Bigelow Shave Cream Jayaruh #30 Schick Repeating Type C Schick Proline B-20 CWR Osage Rub My prep was just a cold water rinse. The C.O.

I did two passes and a cleanup with the Schick Repeating Type C razor with a Schick Proline blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
GEMonday for me today, had a excellent shave yesterday and not as much stubble to chop this morning but my Gem Feather would have none of that. Great shave with a great razor & blade is all I can ask. Razor : Gem Feather weight (1oz)- MFG 1950-53 Blade : Gem Personna Accutec SS PTFE (4) Soap: Razorock Santa Maria del Flore "Firenze"- Excellent soap in all properties of lather strength IMO. Brush : Yaqi Timber wolf 24mm Preshave : Brush wash my face with CeraVe hand bar soap + a dollop of Aloe Vera gel on beard area. Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass. Not sure why others do not enjoy this? Post shave :Avon True Gent with witch Hazel 1:4 + Avon True gent balm. Results : CCS,DFS,BBS + minor irritation + 1 blemish weeper = Have some great shaves!

I had a quick shave tonight with my new Gem G-bar. It definitely shaves better than the old one someone modified. Even with a 9th use Gem SS blade.
Thank you. I'll have to try this razor with a brand new blade next time. 9 shaves on these blades is pushing it for me.

Tue 31st Dec RazoRock Syn. 24mm Vitos Super Red ATT SE1 Schick Proline Myrsol Antesol A/S lootion My first Shave since Fri as on Sat afternoon managed to miss step and fell badly.Lower leg near ankle sore and bruised so rested and iced but no standing. As still swollen on Monday thought it should be checked, fractured Fibula, so now in boot with crutches. As a Daily Shaver I was beginning to feel very grungy, so had a sit down Shave with the aid of a Computer chair and travel mirror, so good to be clean shaven.
So sorry to hear this. No surgery, though, so that's I relief. Hopefully it will net together quickly. Remember to avoid ibuprofen (NSAIDS).
I twisted my ankle in the AutoZone parking lot probably 10 years ago. I ended up on crutches for a month. God bless you, and may your recovery be complete and quick.
