2 Days growth

Fine near BBS except for a small weeper top lip left: cold water dealt with that
Back of the neck done too

The Lea is pretty good stuff! The Henckel was still good on day 3, better in the Red Tip than in the Muhle R89 from Wednesday, and will be used again

 

Friday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Mitchel's Wool Fat Shaving Soap
Jayaruh #277 Silvertip Badger
Gillette Fatboy G2
Gillette Silver Blue
CWR
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Pinaud Vegetal After Shave

The Mitchel's Wool Fat Shaving Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #277 Silvertip Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette Fatboy G2 Razor (7) and the Gillette Silver Blue Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Vegetal After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Really nice handle on your GEM Junior.

Greetings,

(Face & Head Shave)

A new shave set up to start the weekend...It's been some time since I lasted added the Asco super stainless to me blade rotation. Like the Shark super stainless I find them to have a nice balance of efficiency & smoothness, pair together really well with my vintage Gillette tech razors.

The Cella Extra Extra Bio Organic Aloe Vera Shaving Cream is becoming my go to shave cream at the moment. The overall performance & post shave feel are excellent.

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

Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of Superdrug Sierran Breeze ASL.

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

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