    Merkur HD, Derby blade
    Omega 49 brush
    Godrej regular shave cream
    Lucido aftershave lotion
    Nivea extreme comfort balm

    After using my Gillette New for a few months I picked up the Merkur HD on a whim and shaved. Well, it was like having sex with an old girlfriend that I hadn’t seen for a while. A beautiful shave, very close and intimate, most satisfying!

    This stuff is like Aqua Velva without the blue color.

    Gillette Aristocrat
    Derby Extra (shave 3)
    Tom's of Maine mint SC
    Lavender Vanilla organic moisturizer


    Today's my day off so I went for just a nice "quick" shave. The Aristocrat/Derby combo continues to be amongst my favorite setups. Today was a basic N-S only, one pass. I used my oil cleansing method mix as a preshave and things went incredibly smooth. It's not BBS, but it would easily pass the muster if I had to work today. It was an incredibly satisfying shave.

    Monday

    Razor: '58 SS TV Special
    Blade: 7 o'clock black day 1
    Soap: Tabac
    A/S: Pinaud Clubman

    Not quite the shave I got from the Spoiler, but that was with the Red Tip. A 4th pass with the black in the TV and it'd be close.

    Monday 3/23

    • Ever Ready T100 Boar
    • Erasmic Stick (milled into a bowl)
    • 7/8 W&B Celebrated Hollow Ground
    • Gillette NEW
    • Gillette 7OCB
    • Thayer's Alcohol Free Original
    • W&S Lightly Mentholated
    • EdT - T&H Spanish Leather

    Result: For how well it went with the straight yesterday, I fell back to day 1 today. :rolleyes: In all honesty, I don't think I paid enough attention to angle like I did yesterday. I don't think I cut any stubble off at all.:eek: Finished with one WTG with the NEW. I also had lather trouble with the Erasmic. Second time it's happened, last time was the last time I used it. The same troubles I was having with MWF - lather dissipating and then by the end of the shave - pain. Like a burning/itching. It wasn't bad but it was getting worse; I couldn't have done a 3rd pass if I had wanted to. Does anyone know, does the Erasmic have Lanolin in it? Just curious. It's a shame, too because I love that scent. Pairs well with the Leather EdT. :happy088
