hello all, I'm fairly new into the DE world but enjoying it massively. It's become a huge obsession. Anyway I was watching a video and someone had a GEM 1912 SE which I was fascinated by. Anyway a bit of ebaying and I picked one up for £6. It's was a bit of a mess but thought it would be a...

Wouldn't seem to let me post there so this was next best thing.

hi all, I've used my osp soap twice and much prefer the cream. Anyone want to swap with some nice cream? Cheers Dan

eureka What a cracking shave I've had today. So tried the Gillette nacet blade and used the osp Fougere shaving cream today and I've got to tell you about my shave. First I found wtg and xtg the blade was ultra comfortable and glided very well. The osp cream was so easy to use and created a...

That's it it's all individual. One mans perfect combo is another mans nightmare. I've got so many different blades that I'm doing two shaves per blade to find out which ones work. The soap is fairly subtle, it's just nice to have something that smells so lovely. Once the soaps washed off the...

So my experimenting continues. Using the prorosa soap and a personna blade gave me an ok shave. Had a rather nasty shave first time and then second shave was better but just don't think the blade is for me. However over the weekend my order of osp orange and patchouli arrived along with the...

Hello all, So all the bits arrived yesterday so of course I couldn't wait to try it out this morning. So jus to take you through what I did. While having a shower I left the brush and the razor with a derby blade in a bowl of hot water. After my shower I then emptied the bowl and run some...

Again thank you all for the information it's very much appreciated. So I've ordered the following from the shaving shack: Edwin Jagger DE89L which is the lined handle one which comes with the 5 feather blades. Then a sample pack of blades which are 10 x Feather blades, 10 x derby extras and...

Thank you all for the information. I shall get shopping and see where it takes me :). Very good point about thinking you have sensitive skin however it was just the irritation. Hoping after time. I'll know :)

Hello all, new to the forum and new to the concept of a DE razor. First of all I HATE SHAVING!!! I'm hoping this can change. Shaving has always been a horrible experience for me. Having fairly sensitive skin and a tough dark stubble is litterlly a pain. I never shave daily due to the...
