Wednesday shave Razor: EJ Chatsworth Blade: Astra Superior (shave #5) Cream: Taylor of Old Bond Street Avocado Brush: Vulfix 2006 Pure Badger A/S: Ogallala Bay Rum (Witch Hazel based splash) Very near BBS shave today, but the blade was telling me it was time to be retired. No nicks, but it was pulling a bit.
Wednesday Morning: Hot Shower/Hot Towel Type L Schick Injector NOS Injector Blade (USA) (Shave #2) Tweezerman Deluxe Palmolive Classic SC (European) Booster Mosswood A/S Vaseline Intensive Rescue ML Lotion Decent results from the Injector again. I've still got some lingering irritation around my Adam's apple and an ingrown that is too deep to dig out but by the time I do it will be two feet long. NASTY! Because of the irritation I gimmicked up my face with the Vaseline Intensive Rescue Moisture Locking Lotion to ensure that I'd be nice and moisturized for the duration of the day. Seems to be doing the trick. LOVE the Mosswood scent, I just wish that the Booster A/S's would have a little bit more lasting power.
Wednesday: Simpson Tulip 3 Vintage Blades Herbal Citrus shaving cream Futur with Super Iridium Thayer's Lavender Witch Hazel; Clinique Post-Shave Healer Creed Green Irish Tweed
After the usual 1-2 minute hot towel prep: Shavemac 22mm silvertip Sticky/Feather Penhaligons Racquets SC TSD lemon/cedar AS milk(good stuff) Penhaligons 'Elixer' EdT Nice shave this morning, using a Feather in this razor. Normally, I only use these blades in a fatboy, since other razors just don't work as well with those things. The Sticky seems to match up pretty well with em so far, and I'll try a different blade after a couple more shaves. Martin

2.99 for 10 oz. at Walmart/cheap stores. It's very thick, very concentrated, so you need to add water - meaning you get a lot of mileage out of one tube.

After the usual 1-2 minute hot towel prep: scritchy old Rooney badger(excellent for soaps) Sticky/Feather MWF TSD Spring Equinox AS milk(thanks Brian) TGQ 'Leatherneck' extrait Best shave yet with this razor/blade combo. One more day using the Feather, and then it's time for a different blade. It's been a pleasant time so far, and I'm impressed at how well these blades work in the Sticky. A close and comfortable experience, leaving BBS results. Martin
