    Greetings,

    (Face & Head shave.)

    A new shave set up to start the weekend... A double maiden shave using the Pearlman shavers spirit shaving Soap and the chinese Gillette Super Blue blade both I've had for while, but have only got round to trying them out..

    The verdicts? The Pearlman Shaver's spirit soap is a excellent shaving soap... It's very slick, protective with a fresh mild masculine fragrance which lingers throughout the shave and beyond creating a wonderful lather in a short space of time leaving a excellent post shave feel.

    The Chinese Gillette Super Blue paired together with the Pearl SBF-11 razor superbly making a smooth non-aggressive efficient razor & blade duo...The blade feels comfortable sharp & smooth....The sinister looking image on the pack cover looks like "Bela Lugosi" with a mustasch I was expecting the blade cover to have "Made in Transylvania" printed on it with an attention warning stating "Do not expose to daylight, for night shaving only."

    However, "never judge a book by it's cover" as the saying goes these blades are very assertive and a great choice for head shaving which is my method of testing a new blade for efficiency and equally important it's smoothness.

    I'm only one shave in so I can't give a true review but i feel as though these blades have a good longevity & smoothness.

    A enjoyable close comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report...Finishing to the shave off with a small dollop of Cien Sensitive ASB.

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

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

    Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 997

    Pete (Patriot) gave me a generous sample of this great High End soap by Ethos. It has an amazing scent and stronger than I thought it would be based on people's comments early on. I think as it aged the Vanilla Absolute has increased in strength as Frank said it would. Beautiful Vanilla scent with a Mocha type component but that may just be my nose although that's what my wife said on 1st sniff too. Typical luxurious lather and performance. Thanks again Pete ! Have a great weekend folks !!
