(Face & Head Shave)

Another new eclectic shave set up to start the weekend.

It's been a while since I last added the Wickham soap to my rotation. What is astoundingly good about some shaving soaps that I've sampled is the shaving value you get from them. The Wickham 1912 classic 24 soap is absolutely brilliant considering the small amount I used, it provided me with a wonderful protective lather for the shave, and a superb post shave feeling to my face, with a pleasant scent throughout the shave leaving a excellent post shave feel.

Another close comfortable efficient combined face & head shave with no errors to report.

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

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

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

The Arko Shave Stick lathered well with the Jayaruh #119 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Wade & Butcher 5/8 Straight Razor gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Mennen Skin Bracer After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Saturday morning:

Fast shower
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Junjie/Wilkinson Sword day 10
Gada Cool Mint SC
Nivea Cool Kick ASB
Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick
Bleu de Chanel AS Splash
Bleu de Chanel Parfum

Again I overslept so I had to rush my shower and my shave. The Gada Cool Mint cream is indeed dirt cheap but it’s FANTASTIC. Do I ever love its minty/lemony scent, two small dabs on my chin gave me tons of thick, beautiful, slick lather, the menthol sensation felt heavenly, and the chamomile in it gave me a wonderful, soothing feeling. The Nivea Cool Kick balm may not have the best scent but its performance is great, and to me no fragrance beats the Bleu de Chanel. Three really fast passes gave me a dynamite BBS shave that I enjoyed a lot. Now I’m waiting to be picked up to play a couple of rounds of golf with a couple of friends of mine so wish me luck!

See y’all tomorrow - same time same station!
