Outstanding
This was my first use of WSP cream, and I'm very impressed. I was easily able to build dense, slick lather that helped the Vision cruise through my stubble in comfort. My nose is still too stuffed up to evaluate the scent, so all I know is it felt great. The post shave feel is really nice as well.

Good morning friends. A fine three pass shave this morning. Arko shave stick never disappoints. Voluminous, rich lather. I am smooth and refreshed. Enjoy your day friends. ☺️

3 passes, touch up

Nice shave. The Tuckaway is about the best shaver I have. I'd like to find a complete set, without a cracked handle, preferably the same year. (1927 is the year my mom was born.)

 

Great photo Jim ☺️

Williams Wednesday's Shave


Proraso Pre Shave
Williams Mug
Jayaruh #266
Supply Provision
Personna Injector
CWR
Thayer's Lemon WH
Vegetal

I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Williams Mug Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #266 synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Supply Provision Injector Razor using a Personna Injector blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Vegetal AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

I was tempted to use my Goodfella with this 3 day old Astra but then I changed my mind and decided to just leave well enough alone - after all, my Super Speed gives me my best shaves. The Green Fields soap delivered beautifully on the lather as well as its lovely peppermint scent and its awesome chilling sensation. The Amici aftershave is mildly-mentholated and it smells so nice.

Enjoy your shaves and your day!
