It was my first run with a QED Soap and the results were excellent. There was a little warmth from the fragrance I believe but nothing bad enough for me not to use it.

 

Friday's shave

Wilkinson Sword brush
Parker 22R version 2 with Nacet day 2
DR Harris Arlington shaving cream
Keri moisturizing lotion
Lagerfeld cologne

I got a bit bolder today, and did a very light 2nd pass upwards, and it worked quite well. I'm still a bit hesitant to do the real 2nd upwards pass like most other wetshavers, because I'm still new to DE shaving. Still, a very enjoyable shave. This Arlington cream lathers delightfully, and I love the scent.
Armand

 

Armand, arrete de parler comme ca--sois courageux. Tu as deja la bonne forme. Tu te rases deja tres bien, ya baba! Demain, comme c'est Chabbat, je sais que tu te rases le soir. Lorsque tu sors de la douche, mouille ton visage a nouveau, et utilise le Muhle Pinsel truc qui je t'ai donne, ou le Sandelholz, ou bien le Ringelblume, et amuse toi comme un fou!

 

Bic Metal disposable (this was an experiment)
Shavemac bulb style in super
TOBS Lavender
Post shave splash of Dickinson's Witch hazel
GFT Limes Skin Food

The Bic Metal shaves surprisingly decent, although I am experiencing some burn. This will never replace my beloved DE's, but would certainly make a suitable travel razor.

Saturday:

Omega Silvertip

I wonder if Armand would like this Arko aftershave balm....I must ask him if I should get him one, it's so soothing, and smells beautiful. This Tryphon stick has a mountain of great lather, with a very nice old traditional scent.
