Greetings,

(OCtober-Open Comb razor week.)

A new eclectic shave set up to start the weekend..I missed the start of the OCtober open comb razor month so I'll do a full week with my OC razors to make up for lost time....Starting with the assertive Gem OC Micromatic..I've said it before treat any razor with respect, learn your technique, gain your shaving confidence and you'll be rewarded with some sublime shaves.

The mild scented Cella bio Aloe Vera shaving cream provided me with a great protective slick lather in no time leaving a superb post shave feel.

A enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups close comfortable BBS shave with no errors to report...Finishing to the shave off with a few small squirts of Milton Lloyd Victor N0:9 EdT to the pulse points.

My face is feeling silky smooth & smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.

The Proraso Red Shave Cream lathered well with Jayaruh #206 two-band Badger. Two passes and touch ups with the Gem MMOC no bumps with a Personna Gem PTFE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Vanilla After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Wow, tolle Rasur und ich mag dein Bild!

Saturday morning’s Grand Freeze:

Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Minora day 11
Stirling Glacial Electric Sheep SS
Stirling Glacial Unscented ASB
Osage Rub AS Splash
Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick
Bleu de Chanel EdP

These Minora blades are so awesome - they’re very sharp, smooth, forgiving, and they have excellent longevity. Today was my eleventh time using this one and it’s still performing very well. The Glacial Electric Sheep is a mutton tallow based soap like the regular version of Electric Sheep, it has the same lovely scent of lemon, citronella, and eucalyptus, the lather is so rich as well as mega slick, it has a knockout menthol punch, and the skincare is perfect. The Glacial Unscented balm and the Rubby Dubby Doo (Osage Rub) added lots of extra frozen love to my skin. Another brilliant three pass BBS shave which was so much fun!

Enjoy your day - be well and safe!
