Greetings,

(Face & Head Shave)

A new shave set up to start the weekend. It's been some time since I last used the Ming Shi 2000s Futur clone. "Wow" what an incredibly comfortable close efficient shave.!!! Both my face & head are error-free BBS dolphin smooth. The Dorco Prime Platinum pairs with the razor superbly. This is the best combined face & head shave I've had with the Ming Shi 2000s Futur clone to date.

The Ming Shi 2000s Futur clone alone, like most of my more assertive razor's has vastly improved my technique and shaving confidence multitude.

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

Finishing the shave off with a few small squirts of Milton Lloyd Essentials No 19 EdT to the pulse points.

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

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

Saturday morning:

King C. Gillette Facial Wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Wilkinson Sword day 3
MSC Vintage Spice SS
Aloe Vesta Moisturizer
MSC Vintage Spice AS Splash

When the Shulton Old Spice soap, aftershave, and cologne were discontinued I was so disappointed but leave it to my dear brother Fernando in Johannesburg, South Africa to create a PERFECT substitute. My God, the scent of this soap and aftershave is absolutely GORGEOUS - exactly the same as the Shulton Old Spice, the soap’s tallow formula gives it such magnificent lather with so much slickness, and brilliant, soothing skincare. The Aloe Vesta moisturizer is unscented so it would be perfect for sensitive skin, and the Vintage Spice aftershave is witch hazel based so it never stings or burns and the heavenly scent lasts almost all day. What a great three pass BBS shave this was!

Enjoy the weekend - be well and stay safe!

Saturday Straights' Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Proraso Sensitive Shaving Cream
Jayaruh #188 Synthetic
SXDGS 6/8
Gillette Trac //
CWR
Lustray Spice After Shave
The Proraso Sensitive Shaving Cream lathered well with the Jayaruh #188 Synthetic Brush. I did the first pass with the SXDGS 6/8 straight and was not satisfied with the results, so I switched to my Gillette Trac// razor which gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Thanks, Gary.
