Wednesday morning:

L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/Astra Green day 6
Noxzema SC (my absolute favourite)
Prep ASB
Booster Polar Ice AS Splash
Aramis EdT

To me there’s NOTHING better anywhere than the Noxzema lather cream - believe it or not I would give up ALL my other soaps and creams and use only this stuff if only it was still in production but alas, it’s not. About 15 years ago or so I scored a big bunch of them and now I’m down to just 3 so I only use it now and then because I want them to last as long as possible. The scent is so old school and beautiful, the way it lathers is fabulous, it’s got such a delightful menthol sensation, and the postshave feeling is unbeatable. The Prep balm smells exactly like the Noxzema cream and it’s so cooling, moisturizing, as well as soothing. The Polar Ice aftershave is a wonderful Canadian barbershop classic, and finally the gorgeous Aramis fragrance was the icing on the cake. Three passes gave me such a great BBS shave that I enjoyed so much!

Have a good day - be well and stay safe!

Greetings,

Early morning shave,

I have mentioned before in many of my posts, something I've learned since becoming a traditional wet shaver is if I had used the shaving brush, shaving soap/cream method when I shaved with Cartridge razors for all those years my shaves would have been 100% better and more enjoyable as back then, shaving was just a mundane task and something I hated having to do with a strong passion getting no enjoyment from it what so ever.

The Merkur 37C, FaTip Grande, Personna Comfort Coated Lab Blue & Treet Dura Sharp Carbon blue pack have provided me with close comfortable and present face & head shaves this month...Throughout March I will be using the Gillette Guard for my head/dome shaves and a variety of DE razors 'mainly my Parker's for my face shaves and carrying on using various Treet DE blades.

A wonderful shave to finish my last shave of February off on a high.

A comfortable 2 pass + pick ups silky smooth shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Nivea Men Replenishing PSB.

My face is feeling cool smooth & smelling divine.

Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.
