    Tuesday's March SE Madness Shave

    Dove Men Face Wash
    Cella
    Jayaruh #18
    Schick C
    Ted Pella Injector
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayer's Lemon WH
    Florida Water

    The Cella Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #18 silvertip badger brush. I did two passes the Schick C and Ted Pella Injector blade, and I ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

  3. Injecto-matic shared duty with the new Progress and delivered an absolutely effortless BBS face shave. Outstanding smoothness and efficiency. What's not to love.[​IMG]

  4. Razor: AlumiGoose w/Hempel Ti

    Brush: Shavemac ATG LE The Rowl Silvertip
    Soap: Knockout Cool Blue
    Aftershave: Folsom & Co. Shady Past
    Bowl: Pottersong KO Shave

    Very good shave tonight with this razor. The Kai blade is pretty good, however, in my opinion it doesn't stand up to the Feather Pro. Hopefully this brush will release some of the soap once it gets broken in.

  5. My dad has an SE razor, a MicroMatic GEM Razor. He tried to use it once but it cut him. Ever since then he's been nowhere near it. I tried getting him different blades to try but there aren't as much blade choices for SE razors as there is for DE razors. Oh well, *sigh*

  6. Great shave today. Just a spot of irritation on my lower neck. I guess I did not stretch enough.

  7. The open comb micro matic is an awesome razor but can be a hand full. There is no need for a huge choice of blades. A secret to that razor is to be sure to run it flat on the face.

    Here are the instructions from the 30's

  10. I had time for a picture today. It was a wonderful shave with my Gem 1912 with the ornate handle. I do love this razor!

  15. Hussy for the head (lol), A for beard duty. I mixed some good hair conditioner in with the shave oils and I quite like the results. Super slick.

    Supply on 3*, and Chick [ 5 ]. Finding it rather smooth and difficult to get a consistently good finish.

  17. Razor: Schick G
    Blade: Schick (1)
    Brush: Shavemac ATG LE The Rowl Silvertip
    Soap: Route 66 Perfect Storm
    Aftershave: Folsom & Co. Shambala
    Bowl: Symmetrical Starry Night Dottie Bowl

    The Schick G is a very nice change from my other razors. It is very easy to get a close comfortable shave without any issues. The Route 66 Perfect Storm is a very good and a little harder soap than some of the other Route 66 soaps, which I like. All in all a very good three pass shave with a nice aftershave.

    WTG, touch-up

    Nice shave with the I1 this evening. The Speick cream lathered up beautifully and the splash felt great and smells good. One big pass with touch-up is all I need.

    Have a great night!
