Job interview today and needed a great shave and got one.

 

Tuesday...

Razor: '49 SS
Blade: Schick Plus Platinum day 4
Soap: Tabac

Was a little apprehensive about using this razor, since it would usually leave me with more neck irritation than the adjustables or the Red Tip. Not the case at *all* today. Just a great shave.

Today was a great shave. I had just enough water in the brush to get an excellent lather that can only be achieved by having just the right mix... The soap smells great and has staying power. An hour later I can still detect it's scent.

First DE shave with a vintage gillette. It was quite a difference compared to the Merkur Futur that i have been using. It's a good feeling though but it gonna take a few days to get used to the lesser weight and so on. I'm quite sure the Futur will have some lazy days the coming weeks
