    I've chosen Trade Winds as my next Chisled Face. When to buy it is the question.

    Cold Water Shave
    Pears Glycerine Soap
    Williams Mug Shaving Soap
    Omega 10051 Boar Brush
    Ever-Ready HFT (E-Bar) with a Gem SS PTFE Blade
    Witch Hazel
    Palmer's Fragrance Free Moisturiser
    Williams Aqua Velva AS

    I have a few days off (Working the weekend) but it was an early start and so far it has been a very good day.
    1) The Motor bike passed it's MOT test
    2) I found a pharmacy with UK Ingram Cream and cleared their stock.
    3) Popped into the Antique Shop beside the Pharmacy and found today's razor. An Ever-Ready HFT in immaculate condition and it cost me only £4.

    Today's shave was just perfect. 3 mild but incredibly efficient passes for a BBS finish:)

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Astra Green day 4
    Bielita SC
    Prep ASB
    Proraso Green AS Splash

    My first ever shave with this Bielita cream that I received this past Monday and I think it’s terrific. (Muchísimas gracias Miguel, tú eres tan amable!) Its scent is very nice - it’s sort of flowery but not in a feminine way, it’s a pleasure to lather, and it has a pleasant menthol sensation. The Prep as always gave me wonderful soothing, moisturizing, and cooling. The Proraso Green aftershave is the only item I like from that line because it smells nice and it’s good and cooling. All in all a most enjoyable BBS shave. The Bielita cream is from Belarus, by the way. Excellent stuff!

    Astra SP blade
    Satin Tip Purist brush
    More for You Shave Soap
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Daxton A/S

    Nothing expensive in today's shave but all the parts worked extremely well for me and BBS was had in 2 passes with a bit of touch up. My face is very happy especially after yesterday's debacle. Now go enjoy your day folks.

    Last shave with the Cayenne blade today... Not bad for 8 shaves. Tons of cushioning lather from the MWF. I'm smooth and smell great for my shift today. Great weather here in PA today doesn't hurt . Have a great day all!

    Another grey, wet, and miserable June day here, but at least the shave was a good'un.
    Happy Shaving one and all.

    I take it you were a bit thrown off by Triumph, but still liked it. Great photo of Declan.

    Wow...good choice. I got an e-mail from West Coast Shaving yesterday, saying that they were including Plunder, and another NO I can't remember.

    Why do you say I was a bit "thrown off" ? Three scent was great, it's just not an easy one to describe.
