    Terrific shave Gary!

    I think I would kill to get a Palmolive stick - it’s such an awesome soap. Too bad it was discontinued.

    Wednesday morning:

    L’Oréal Barber Club Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Astra Green day 3
    Palmolive Classic SC
    Proraso Blue ASB
    English Leather AS Splash

    In a bit of a hurry so I grabbed the first thing in front of me - the Palmolive Classic cream from Italy is and always has been a top favourite of mine. It’s exactly the same cream as the version sold in the rest of Europe - a nice, clean, soapy scent, awesome lather with plenty of slickness, and such good skincare. The Proraso Blue balm is so moisturizing as well as soothing, it smells nice but I can’t describe the scent, and the English Leather aftershave went on with a bit of a sting but then it felt great and do I ever love its old school scent. Two passes were sufficient for a brilliant BBS shave that was a real pleasure!

    Enjoy your day and your shaves - be well and stay safe![​IMG]

    Williams Wednesday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Williams Mug Shaving Soap
    Tom's B400 Two-band Badger
    Bunny V3 Injector
    Supply Black Label Blade
    CWR
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Lilac Vegetal

    The Williams Mug Shaving Soap lathered well with Tom's B400 Two-band Badger. Two passes and touch ups with the Bunny V3 Injector Razor and a Supply Black Label Blade Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and then Lilac Vegetal. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
