Pre: Warm water face wash Brush: EJ Medium BB Soap: P&B Spitfire Razor: Gem MMFW Blade: Gem SS Post: Warm then cold water rinse, Boots Freshwood ASB Although my least favourite of the Micromatics the Flying Wing would make a nice addition to anyone's rotation and for someone looking to try the Micromatics it would be an ideal introduction imo. For less than three quid the Boots balm is a bargain of the highest order. Happy Shaving one and all.
Unsurprising Monday I was not surprised that River Rouge gave up optimal lather and an intoxicating scent to my Silver Surfer brush, nor was I surprised that the Vision destroyed my stubble in close comfort, neither was I surprised that Uncle Jon's Pipe Smoke left my face soft and well cared for while picking up the tobacco note in the soap.

Menthol Monday's Shave Proraso Pre Shave Fine Snake Bite Jayaruh #268 Gem Flying Wing Pal CS CWR Thayer's Lemon WH Aqua Velva Musk I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Fine Snake Bite Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #268 synthetic brush. The Snake Bite is well mentholated, and I highly recommend it if you like the chill. I did two passes with the Gem Flying Wing Razor using a Pal CS SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

March 12,2018 Monday Razor: RR Hawk Blade: Kia Titan Mild (4) Preshave: Homemade Brush: VDH Badger Lather: Proraso Green AS: Aqua Velva/Afts Newspaper date: Nov. 7,1943 With the Hawk and Proraso, I tried a light, wet lather and a very fine, light touch. Almost didn`t need a 2nd pass, so smooth. But with all that lather left over, I just had to use it. So a 2 pass shave, WTG/ATG,XTG and real light touch on the clean up produced a shave that I`m proud to say BBS. This happy Camper is wishing the same for all. God Bless, Bill
