Another shave with the Gillette New LC, and I'm looking forward to another good shave with it. Loaded a Feather blade, and checked the alignment. Looks good and I'm really liking this razor. Whipped up some Jack in the OS Mug. Very nice two pass shave with some touchup on my trouble spot on my neck. No buffing today to give my face a rest. Warm water rinse and pat dry. Some WH and after cleanup some JB balm. Finished up with some Bay Rum. Y'al have a good one!

I'm Really Diggin' that Teacher Mug ... Paul. Very nice my friend.

 

Nice layering Celestino. I'm not sure how you got the brush to balance on the edge of the bowl....??? Nice shot.

I finally hit the bottom of my B&M Cheshire. This is will be only the second tub of soap that I've ever finished. The brush had a recent knot transplant, and went from boar to silvertip. At 28mm, it's a beast and generated enough lather for a week's worth of shaves...lol. The ikon 102 provided smooth results as usual. I hope all is going well, have a good one gents.

 

Cheap stuff SOTD:

Proraso soap - red / Omega 10275 / Astra SP / Gillette Slim Adjustable L2 (1966) / Lidl Cien - Ebony / Kik plastic bowl

 

Thanks JR. I don't use for lathering, I just like the nod to my profession.
