Injector and SE Shaves

Sun 19th September

Cyril Salter / MS. Ed2band
P & B Pall Mall
TNNSER-3D
Gem S/S [ 6 ]
P & B Pall Mall A/S Splash

A much closer Shave than yesterday when I used an Enoch with a guarded blade. More aggressive than my other TNNSER, will have to do a side by side Shave at some time.

 

Mon 20th September

Stirling Syn. 26mm
L`Occitane Cade soap
Schick E2 -Canadian WW2 issue
Schick Proline [ 4 ]
Floid Vigoroso A/S Lotion

This may be small compared to Vintage/ AC SE, and needs more strokes to cover the face, but it Shaves so well. Much smoother than my USA E2, the finish I got was probably my first "Face Stroker " for a while.

Schick E2 - Canada
Schick Proline [ 5 ]
Pitralon Classic A/S Lotion

Got the brush a little wetter than normal, an explosion of lather confirmed that too much lather actually makes the brush handle slippy. Will stick with my use of a lightly damp brush.
Another cracking Shave, this E2 just has to be in my regular Injector rotation.I think I have in the past used it every day for a week, it is that good.
