    Shaving recipe for today.

    Prep: Warm shower:/Asda Sea Salt & Fennel Extract 2 in1 Shower Gel.

    Pre:
    Cold wet flannel to my face.
    Pears Transparent Soap with Mint Extracts.
    Brush: Omega 1470.
    Face Lather.
    Lather : Boots Original Shave Stick.
    Blade: Provision Personna PTFE SS. (D2)
    Razor: Supply Razor V2.

    Post:
    Cold water Face Wash with brush squeezing's, Cold Water Face Rinse. /Homemade (~Autumn/Winter mix~) peppermint lavender, eucalyptus, + Tea Tree essential Oils Mixed Together With 200ml of Care+Witch Hazel./Boots Freshwood ASL + ASB

    A relaxing Sunday morning shave.

    Another wonderful performance from the Supply Razor.. I find the hefty weight of the razor a great bonus and have trained my mind to 'shave the lather from my face, rather than the stubble find my shaving angle which is easy to do so then glide it over your face to remove the stubble.

    Only the second shave with the Supply and my fondness for this razor is growing rapidly.

    Another comfortable 2 pass + pick ups smooth shave with no errors to report...Finishing to the shave off with a small dollop of Boots Freshwood ASB.

    My face is feeling silky smooth & smelling divine.;)

    Stay safe, and enjoy Sunday Ladies & Gentlemen.:cool:

    Razor: Dollar Tree DE
    Blade: Gillette Silver Blue

    Aftershave: Stirling Black Cherry
    Additional Care:
    Thayer’s Witch Hazel - Original

    I am up early for another eventful travel day. After a quick hot shower I had my usual three pass shave. Did I really need to shave? Not really since I had a late afternoon shave yesterday. That being said, I just love the process including the wonderful challenge of whipping up the lather , the shave and the time to be in my thoughts without any interruptions.

    The Dollar Tree razor, $1.99 pre Pandemic, is a good, light efficient razor. It just proves that you do not need a Tedalus, Merkur or other high end quality razor. The mantra “Technique trumps tools” is evident in this shave. A super smooth and crimson free shave to start the day.

    I hope you have a great day gentlemen.

    A much better shave today than that of yesterday. Everything went right, especially in the area at the right end of the jawline-got it all off. Let's hope I can make a daily habit of THAT. I was careful going up North Porcupine (upper lip towards the nose)-dangerous area that asks for a slow and steady shaving motion, and I used both directions with the razor (North-South and South-North). Cactus was fine again. The right cheek again proved to be tricky to solve (why is it the RIGHT side of my body gets the bad breaks-and that's not just shaving). 2 healthy passes. No cuts, Knicks, or Polka dots, although I thought I had one at Cactus-proved harmless. Great finish from the Stoylin Ramblin' Man A.S. I need to find a way to get my colognes back going, but it's hard in the winter, as your skin is covered 100% when you go outside. Aaaah, I'll figure out something. As for the shave , Super Duper Excellent.

    Clubman Vanilla A.S. has many 5-star reviews on Amazon. Surprised me enough to get me thinking I should add it to my Clubman arsenal.
