    Razor: Personna Floating Head
    Blade: Gillette Twistjector (10)
    Pre Shave Oil: Homemade
    Lather: Gillette Foamy
    AS: Afta

    Trying different things may be fun, but sometimes it doesn`t feel so great. What a difference Proraso makes. The razor felt like it was dragging a little. I still got a great shave with 2 passes, WTG/ATG almost no clean up. I purely don`t like the dragging part, very uncomfortable, luckily, no irritation. Not smooth, but close enough. A cold water rinse, topped with Afta. Feel good, God Bless to all.

  17. Hey Friends,

    here my Sunday shave. Belated, because i had absolutely no time during easter. I had to work, so only minimal time for the shave and family-time. But here we are:

    [​IMG]
    Razor: Merkur 42c aka 1904 // Blade: Gillette Bleue Extra // Soap: Saponificio Varesino Stella Alpina // Brush: Omega 11126 // Aftershave: 4711 Portugal // Cigar: Padron Maduro

    So Friends, this was (for some time) my last shave. With a Safety Razor. I´m trying to shave with a straight razor. Just to learn it. So Straight razors will be my Go-to choice the next shaves. Wish me luck. ;););)

    This shave was great. The razor is very gentle for an open comb and pairs very nicely with the blade. The rest? Outstanding!!!

    See you next time guys.

    Have a great time, enjoy your shaves and take care.

    Greetings
    Thorsten​
