    Cold Water Shave
    Heno de Pravia Glycerine Soap
    Williams Mug Shavig Soap
    Omega 20102 Boar Brush
    Schick E2 (Canadian) with a 'Schick (Chinese) Blade
    Witch Hazel
    Palmer's for Men Moisturiser
    Pinaud Lilac Vegetal

    First use of an injector for a very long time and my first ever use of the Chinese made Schick Blade.. It is a pity they are so expensive to obtain in the UK.
    That was an absolute 'cracker' of a shave. 3 smooth passes for a perfect finish:)

    Razor: Timeless Bronze OC
    Blade: Gillette Nacet(3)
    Brush: Zenith boar
    Pre-shave: Stirling Mentholated
    Soap: Williams Mug Soap
    PAA Galactic witch hazel
    PAA Star Jelly unscented
    AS: Fine American Blend

    Williams Wednesday!

    Good morning!

    My last shave with the Bronze OC was what I've come to expect from my shaves. I decided to return to it today hoping for a repeat performance before moving on to another razor in my month of OC razors. Three passes for near BBS. Mostly silent alum except for a whisper in the left hollow of my neck. Terrific shave! If someone were to ask what I'm doing differently now as opposed to my first couple of shaves with it, which weren't bad just warmer than usual alum, I couldn't answer that. Just a few repeated uses to get comfortable with it is what it took to get dialed in.

    Have a great day![​IMG]

    I guess I should have done this as a #tbt but I wanted some inspiration today from my favorite athlete all time. He made me love ⚾, but no one could love it as much as he did. Thanks !

    Williams Wednesday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    Williams Mug Shave Soap
    Oscar11 Synthetic
    TNNSER
    Gem Blue Star CS
    CWR
    Barbasol Brisk

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Williams Mug Shave Soap face lathered well with the Oscar11 Synthetic brush. I did two passes with the TNNSER razor with a Gem Blue Star CS blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Barbasol Brisk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    3682907E-6548-48A1-8037-BCD6F274250B.jpeg Thursday morning:

    Neutrogena Men Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Wilkinson TTO/Rapira day 4
    RVT Frosty Bay Rum SS
    Prep ASB
    Krampert’s Bay Rum AS Splash

    I really enjoyed this shave a lot - the Frosty Bay Rum soap smells so beautiful, not to mention how it lathers and the way it gives such great blade glide, as well as the menthol effect. There’s nothing like a nice massage with the Prep and then a couple of splashes of the Krampert’s Bay Rum aftershave. Smooth as silk in two easy peasy passes!
