Wonderful shaves Barry. Glad the Derby blade did a fine job.

 

Awesome shave Joe. Is that a real bird? Lol!

 

I can't stand this cold!

 

Very nice shave Gary. Is the CF Lime scent strong?

 

Thank you Joe. The Derby Usta was a excellent addition to the shave set up, and a pleasure to revisit. I no longer have any Derby extra's in my vast forever growing DE blade collection surprisingly, but the Usta was equally as good.

Greetings,

A relaxing Sunday morning shave.

A wonderful performance from the Arko fresh Shaving cream providing me with a good slick lather and a great post shave with no drying issues

Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Bulldog Original Moisturiser.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.

Keep safe and enjoy your Sunday ladies & gentlemen.

 

Thank you Gary.

 

Can't top that, superb shave, no damage, and a cute new visitor

Thanks Joe

And again, Thanks Joe, working hard at the sinking of this Stirling, to my nose it has scent left but lathers superbly

Lovely Limey shave

A hint of Turkey there perhaps?

How does the scent of that Arko cream compare to the standard arko shaving sticks Barry?

 

Sunday 13 April 2025
All-Blades April continues
Crazy busy week behind me

1 Days growth

Hot Water Prep and Preshave = Palmolive shave cream
Soap = Stirling Bergamot and Lavender
Brush = Omega boar 10049
Bowl = white
Razor = Rocket HD
Blade = Personna made in the USA
Passes = 2 + followed by the back of the neck
Post = Usual CWR, Alum, rinse, pat dry, Thayer’s rose petal, L’occitane ASB.
ASL = Pinaud VIBR
Scent = Stirling Spice EdT

Minor weeper left lower chin, cleared during the shave

Another superlative shave with the Rocket HD. Great way to start the Sunday. The Personna is deceptively sharp, smooth in this razor but still sharp. Binned anyway, in the spirit of All-Blades April, using a different blade each time, but only once. Another 99 left in this box of 100, looking forward to trying these out in different razors

Have a great Sunday one and all

 

A Sunday Turkish themed shave. The scent of the Arko shave cream is completely different to the shave stick scent.
All are pleasantly synthetic & have a short lived sillage, but provide a very acceptable slick protective lather.

 

thank you Joe.i would say midrange.very nice key lime scent..

fine HD sunday shave Chris.
