Face & Head shave,

The grated Palmolive shaving soap was the star of the shave this morning....It doesn't matter which way I use the humble Palmolive classic shave stick , it never fails to provide me with a super protective slick lather leaving a good post shave feel. Superb stuff!.

The efficient Katana & Euromax Platinum duo cut through my face & head stubble with effortless ease.

Another enjoyable close comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Wilko Men's Moisturiser.

My face & precious swede are feeling smooth & smelling divine.

Single Edge September 3 days growth

Prep = usual with Proraso Blue top sensitive skin Tube Aloe Vit E
Soap = Tabac, looking for a trusted soap to pair with the SE, it is Tuesday after all
Brush = Omega Puro Setola bristle
Bowl = White
Razor = Eversharp Hydromagic black handle L-1
Blade = Personna Injector PTFE day 1
Passes = 3 + some tentative touchups
Post = CWR, alum, CWR, Thayers, Tabac AS Balm, Tabac ASL
Damage = fleeting weeper just under lower lip, but cleared on its own

Comments = A bit hesitant using the SE again after a long lay-off
Score = 9/10. Still some stubble left in Zone 8, but overall I can't complain

Thank you Gary

Alway welcome

Very nice shave Chris. I am not sure of the location of Zone 8. Must be similar to a location in New England.

Outstanding shave Barry.

Thank you Joe. Yes, but we shall see.

Thanks Joe, my stubborn patch.

Awesome setup and shave Barry. Enjoy your afternoon.

cool hydromatic shave Chris

Well, I'm gradually pulling myself back together after a nasty clumsy accident while showering yesterday. I stepped on a moist piece of paper(don't know how it got there), tripped, and ended up on my back outside the shower, with shave prep still on my face. It knocked down the curtain(my cleaning lady says se can bring me a new one next visit)and I busted a lens off my glasses. I have my spares on t0day-OK, but a different prescription. I went ahead with my shave, which turned out to be fine, but wasn't in the mood t0 write about it. . As for today, I had another fine shave. DURING it, Ihad 3 cuts all around South Porcupine, but the cold water rinse and Stoylin Coniferous A.S.(with Menthol)got rid of them thus I was OK AFTER it. They LOOKEd like cuts, anyway, but perhaps they can be better described as KNICKS, as there was no pain endured. Very Oustanding. As for the shower, I had a liner along with the curtain and was able to get that back up well enough to last until the cleaning lady brings the new curtain.

good morning gents
first shave with a Silver Star blade from Egypt.
very nice shave,it presented well in this aristocrat ,which is a mild shaver
smooth 2 passer in the usual manner,little left for pick ups.
no irritation or other.
we'll see how many shaves it lasts.feels as good as the kcg,
but honestly,they all do at first..
if it lasts the usual 3 shaves ,then it was worth the $11 bucks for the 100 pack.
awesome.

have a fine day everyone

Hey that's nice Gary....you have the Taylor Sandalwood A.S. AND cologne.

thank you Paul.and the talc..

fine shave. glad you are ok.

It might be in New England, but it ain't near me. (Zone 8).

Thank you Gary. Y'know, I had the presence of mind to hold my hand behind my head so as to prevent any pain there. My back is OK-didn't get pain there. It was a "soft landing", but still I was upset.

Right, I did notice another TOBS. Ahhhh, two outta three ain't bad.
