It took some getting used to as sweet scents are nowhere on my usual AS list. But I love the Mrysol AS products (I have 4 of them) for their subtleness, skin feel and skin soothing properties. So when I heard that PS was the favorite of the Myrsol creator, I decided to give it a try. The first whiff is like the scent of a kids sweet cherry lollipop! But I took to it in time, especially when paired with a scent like the R66 Bourbon Jungle. I was impressed with the history of Myrsol and it's creator, and laugh hysterically over some of the reviews of PS.
Beauty JR! Great PIF, eh. I married a Canadian and bought a Canadian E2 exactly like the one you're PIFing. (It really helped in having her overlook my RAD!) It's a great one fellas. Get on this list for an injector fan's must have!
I love this thread. Post more pictures! I got my first SE razor. The Gem G-bar: had I got this as my first razor, I don't think I would have bothered with anything else. It is A. MA(Y). ZING!
All my "SE" razors, they will all get a turn this month! Thanks @clint64 for starting the discussion for September! Lots of great shaves await.

SEptember 2, 2016 Cobra Classic Feather Pro (2) Brothers Bristles with Sunrise Synthetic Route 66 Perfect Storm Witch Hazel Floid Blue Another great shave this morning. The Route 66 Perfect Storm is a wonderful light scent. To my nose the scent is of a really light fougere. As usual Route 66 is super easy to work into a nice slick lather. I went with a full 3 pass shave today and took my time. By skin stretching and paying attention to my trouble spots, I ended up with a perfect BBS. Overall the shave was super close and smooth. A splash of Floid Blue was the perfect end to such a great shave. I hope everyone has a fantastic Friday.
SOTD September 2, 2016 Blade: GEM Stainless Razor: GEM Featherweight Brush: Omega 10049 boar Lather: Mitchell's Wool Fat Post: Witch hazel splash enhanced with Barbasol Pacific Rush, Nivea sensitive balm WTG, touch-up Fat Friday! Nice shave again with the Featherweight. I'm enjoying SEptember already! Question for you wise ones. My face feels smoother and less stubbly about 20 minutes or so after I shave when using an SE. I'll feel all the remaining stubble when rubbing in the Nivea balm, but then later it feels smoother than directly after the shave. I didn't experience that with DE shaves. Is that a common experience? It's interesting. I hope everyone enjoys their day and looks forward to the holiday weekend!
Well, I must have done a good job honing this blade. When I was done stropping it and removing the tape from the blade I caught the corner of the blade with the tip of my index finger. Without hesitation or remorse it cut through my skin, it wasn't deep just enough to draw a drop of blood. I don't know if I'm more proud of my honing job or more embarrassed my mistake but there you have it. I will by shaving with my Rapide tomorrow with a professionally honed blade so that I have something to compare my own honing efforts to. Hopefully I'm in the ball park at least

Good luck. Still waiting for my 5 micron sheet to arrive so I can ready up the Rolls. Did you finish up with 1 micron or .3? Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
SEptember 2 SOTD Schick G4 razor Personna blade WD Silver Tip brush CO Bigelow SC Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue EDT SE month and the G4 did good. Last attempt with injectors resulted in a lot of nick/cuts/weepers. Not today and I feel fine. Now go enjoy your day folks.
Well I started off SEptember yesterday with the MMOC, had a wonderful shave. Planned to use it again but woke up with a high fever so not up to it today. Have great SE shaves everyone! Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
My SOTD Wonderful shave today! No irritation no blood . I think I like this star razor better than the gem g bar.
