    Greetings,

    (Face & Head shave.)

    A new shave set up to start the weekend... A double maiden shave using the Pearlman shavers spirit shaving Soap and the chinese Gillette Super Blue blade both I've had for while, but have only got round to trying them out..

    The verdicts? The Pearlman Shaver's spirit soap is a excellent shaving soap... It's very slick, protective with a fresh mild masculine fragrance which lingers throughout the shave and beyond creating a wonderful lather in a short space of time leaving a excellent post shave feel.

    The Chinese Gillette Super Blue paired together with the Pearl SBF-11 razor superbly making a smooth non-aggressive efficient razor & blade duo...The blade feels comfortable sharp & smooth....The sinister looking image on the pack cover looks like "Bela Lugosi" with a mustasch I was expecting the blade cover to have "Made in Transylvania" printed on it with an attention warning stating "Do not expose to daylight, for night shaving only."

    However, "never judge a book by it's cover" as the saying goes these blades are very assertive and a great choice for head shaving which is my method of testing a new blade for efficiency and equally important it's smoothness.

    I'm only one shave in so I can't give a true review but i feel as though these blades have a good longevity & smoothness.

    A enjoyable close comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report...Finishing to the shave off with a small dollop of Cien Sensitive ASB.

    My face and precious swede are feeling silky smooth & smelling divine.;)

    Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

    A great disappointment: when I heard what the 'D' was. I was hoping to get it.

    [​IMG]

    Then I realized it wasn't what I had thought of!
    Oh well... I couldn't have used it on the road anyway.

    Priceless peace. (I actually paid for it, but that's history).

    I put on a music that matched my mood, and then I did the usual morning pampering (if I don't post a picture, it doesn't mean I'm neglecting myself!),
    I chose the brush that I just re-knotted: it works really well and a razor that I neglect too frequently and a soap with a fascinating scent.

    It has been perfect!

    Saturday's Shave

    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    Mitchell's Wool Fat Shave Soap
    Tom's B-3 Badger Brush
    Parker Adjustable Injector
    Parker Injector Razor Blade
    CWR
    Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla AS

    The Mitchell's Wool Fat Shave Soap lathered well with Tom's B-3 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Parker Adjustable Injector Razor with a Parker Injector Razor Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
