    Very nice Danny. Is the scent of that soap Oud based?

    Yes it is! I hardly use this soap, so I want to take full advantage of its freezing properties.

    I don't have any idea what razor I will be using tomorrow evenimg. Since it will be an under 30 hr stubble, it probably will be my Van der Hagen or my ShakeSharp. Friday will be a no shave and Sat. will be Max.

    Shaving recipe for today.

    Prep: Warm shower:/Asda Tingly Mint & Tea Tree Shower Gel.

    Cold wet flannel to my face.
    Pears Transparent Bar Soap.
    Brush: Anbbas 24mm Tuxedo synthetic.
    Bowl Lather.
    Bowl : Home Bargains Stainless Steel Side Bowl.
    Lather: Scottish Fine Shaving Soap.
    Blade: Personna Gem PTFE. (D2.)
    Razor: Supply V2.

    Post:
    Cold water face wash with brush squeezing's, Cold Water Face Rinse./ Homemade (~Spring/Summer mix~) Lemon, Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Essential Oils.3 Menthol Crystals Mixed Together With 200ml of Care+Witch Hazel./Brut Original ASL+ Splash-On Lotion./Cien Sensitive ASB.

    Greetings,

    An enjoyable shave to finish my shaving week off in style.

    Another week of comfortable acceptable shaves.

    After my introduction to to injector razors with the wonderful Schick G i pushed the boat out and purchased the Supply V2 along with the Parker InjRzr in the same order to further my passionate curiosity to try out a modern injector.

    The Build & quality standard of the Supply V2 is the best razor i have purchased to date...The weight is much heavier than my other Injector razors, which is something i like in a razor. However the first few shaves it wasn't quite as easy to manoeuvre as the Schick G type injector but since then, i have adjusted to the extra weight, which i now find an added bonus.

    The handle doesn't feel slippery, despite being smooth it feels grippy and good to hold making the razor feel well balanced...The added bonus i like about the supply V2 is you can disassemble to clean it, and you don't need an injector key to change the blade like you do with most other injector razors.

    A comfortable 2 pass + pick ups shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Cien Sensitive ASB.

    My face is feeling cool, smooth & smelling divine.;)

    Stay Safe, and enjoy your day Ladies & Gentlemen.:cool:

    Today was another exceptional shave. My new Micromatic open comb was pleasant for 3 passes. :)

    Took quick shower but, will need another before bed after the heat today. Cool shower was nice!

    Razor - Micromatic Open Comb with a GEM Personna SS blade (4th use)
    Pre-shave - TOBS Herbal Gel
    Soap - Mitchell's Wool Fat
    Brush - Simpson Trafalgar T2
    After shave - Thayers Toner & dab of Proraso balm and splash of AS

    I tried the Scupper today and I really like how it works. It retains heat better than just pre-heating my ceramic bowl. I think I will save this for winter shaves but, I hadta try it out!

    I had a very nice 3-pass shave WTG, XTG, ATG for a smooth face. No cuts, nicks, or errors. Alum bar raised no feedback.
    A most pleasant shave!

    Although Don (Wet The Face)suggested to put his frozen soap in the fridge just once, I may do it again for another 30-minute period the night before I plan to use it. It's THAT hot around here(yeah, that is an understatement but I decided to say it anywayyyyy(long lung breath).

    Wonderful Shavette shave this morning. I find that this soap whips up best if used with a boar brush. There are only two shaves left I. This tub which are scheduled based on this month’s focus for tomorrow and Monday. That being said, I may just finish it off on Saturday.

    Three passes without any incidents has left my face extremely smooth. Ready for another hot day.

    Here is Anthony, turquoise shirt, enjoying the Gulf waters. My little man is a water rat.
