THX EJ89 is a great razor that goes on autopilot and provides excellent shaves without stress. For many, it would be the end of the game. Myself included. But I suffer from incurable RAD and not only DE but also straight razor
Guten Morgen liebe Herren! (Good morning dear gentlemen!) Morgendliche Rasur: (Morning shave) Hot shower with Tabac bath soap Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster Super Speed/Wilkinson day 3 Tabac SS Lubriderm Moisturizer Tabac AS Splash Tabac Cologne Before I received another backup Tabac stick and a brand new bowl I had to ration the stick that I have but now I can enjoy this wonderful stuff on a much more regular basis. The scent is so delightfully old school, the bowl contains the tallow soap which is so awesome, it gives such magnificent lather, and it’s so skin friendly. The Lubriderm moisturizer works so well as a balm because it’s unscented as well as very soothing. Finally the Tabac aftershave and cologne had me smelling great. Another three pass BBS shave that felt like from the Garden of Eden! Allen ein tolles Wochenende - passt auf euch auf! (A great weekend to everyone - take care of yourselves!)

Friday's Cold Water Shave Cold Water Rinse Proraso Sandalwood Jayaruh #464 Synthetic Auto Strop A2 Personna GEM SS PTFE CWR Humphrey's Witch Hazel Lustray Spice After Shave The Proraso Sandalwood Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #464 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Auto Strop A2 razor and the modifid Personna GEM SS PTFE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Time for an "Old Spice Dupe Week-end!". Here's Saturday: prep-Suave 4 Men Bodywash(in shower) lather-Obsessive Soap Professsionals-"Old Gold" soap* brush-Razorock Plissoft 400 Synthetic razor-Gillette Sensor Deuce Pivot DisposeABLE A.S.-"New Spice"** *-OSP dupe of Old Spice **-my pen name for Old Spice-bottle looks similar to Original Old Spice, but it's made from Proctor&Gamble. It's nice that P&G allowed the origin year to remain on (1938)
Friday 9th May Whityle 20T + Gillette Silver Blue halved #1 - RazoRock Plissoft + Tabac Stick + Williams Aqua Velva AS + Aloe Vera Gel Received the razor yesterday from AliExpress and was originally disappointed. The blade loading was very fiddly and the bottom blade wasn't lying true. I tried the Euromax ½ blades. So I tried again with a snapped GSB and it was originally similar to the Euromax. After numerous tries, I discovered that careful alignment is needed. The shave saved the day. I'm surprisingly shocked and rather pleased. It was silky smooth and effortless. An got an excellent close result, with no response to the post alum or aftershave. A definite keeper.
I agree. The label reads "A Wonderful Blend of Warm Spice, Citrus, Leather & Amber" Sent from my SM-A526U using Tapatalk

Saturday morning’s Nuclear Grand Freeze: Hot shower Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/Wilkinson day 4 Stirling Glacial Electric Sheep SS Bundubeard Stoffel ASB Noble Otter Northern Elixir AS Splash Stirling Baker Street EdT Mama mia, any colder than this and I think my face would have disintegrated. This Glacial Electric Sheep packs a LETHAL menthol sensation that jumps on you as soon as you start lathering up and each stroke of the razor seems to make it feel colder. The Stoffel balm is also plenty cold, its peppermint scent is so nice, and it gives so much moisturizing as well as soothing. The Northern Elixir aftershave is another menthol atom bomb - heaven help anyone who can’t handle it. Finally the lovely Baker Street fragrance which I received a few years ago and I’m all set to relax here at home on a rainy day. Three passes gave me a mighty fine fun filled BBS shave! Enjoy the weekend and your shaves - be well and stay safe! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for your post. I've been toying with the idea of shopping for a blue tip. I have a few plain and red tips, but no blue tip. Sent from my SM-A526U using Tapatalk

As I'm sure you already know, it's the mildest of the three. And yet I find it still gives a great shave. I never come away thinking it wasn't close enough. Give one a try! I'll bet you'll love it.
