Greetings,

A new shave set up to start the weekend...It's been a while since i last used my Parker 94r which paired together with the Korean Dorco Prime Platinum very nicely with no issues making a smooth efficient razor & blade duo...The hefty weight of this small very effective razor adds to it's wonderful assertiveness which doesn't holds no prisoners to face & head stubble.

Another enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report....Finishing to the shave off with a few small squirts of Milton Lloyd Victor no9 EdP to the pulse points.

My face is feeling silky smooth & smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.

Saturday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
L'Occitane Shaving Soap
Jayaruh #414 Silvertip Badger
TARMAX by Tom
Astra SP
CWR
Lustray Spice After Shave

The L'Occitane Shaving Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #414 Silvertip Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the TARMAX Razor by Tom with an Astra SP Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Saturday morning’s Grand Freeze:

Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Astra Green day 13
Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill SS
Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill ASB
Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill AS Splash

Lemony scented icicles in my face from the Glacial Lemon Chill trio and such a great shave despite the Astra Green blade being quite a bit duller. Now I’m going to have my morning coffee and I’m going to play golf with some friends of mine!

Have a nice day - stay healthy and safe!

Yeah, it's pretty cool. When I turned the LED lighting off that I use for my pictures it was glowing so bright I had to share.
