Happy birthday - and an awesome razor you got there ... blade gap is ... ? ;-)
 
Wednesday AM 2018-01-10

Moss Anniversary Slate scuttle
Elite Razor D7 Manchurian (27mm/51mm)
Acqua di Parma Colonia shaving soap (original version)
Delta Echo Ink Edition Feather AS-D2/UFO Titan Fine
Polsilver Super Iridium (5)

The soap seemed easier to lather today, with very little effort at all required to produce rich, thick lather. I used no aftershave today, so that I could assess the skincare properties of the soap more easily. The original AdP Colonia left my skin very soft and moisturized, with no drying at all.

Wed 10th Jan
RazoRock Syn 22mm
L'Occitane Cade Soap
PAL S/S Adjustable
Schick Proline ( 4 )
Alum Rub/ Rinse off
Jaguar Prestige A/S lotion

Today I used what for a long time has been my favourite Injector,which is a like it/or leave it Razor.I am lucky that I have one with fully functioning adjustment,and it delivers great Shaves.

After a poor Shave yesterday due to inattention on my behalf,Iwas determined to make amends.Very pleased to say all went well, so smooth and easy with a face stroking finish.In terms of finished Shave quality this may well equall those I have got with some modern AC/SE Razors.Well it is fitted with an AC blade.

Evening shave.

BBA Face Wash
Extro Lavanda Muschio
Omega 10098 Boar
Little Wren Pottery
Rockwell 6C (plate 4)
Gillette Nacet (3)
Speick Aftershave

An ill timed power cut and then a busted light bulb meant that I hadn't had a shave for over three days. So a fair amount of stubble to plough through. In retrospect, I shouldn't have pushed the Nacet to a third shave. By the third pass it had definately lost its edge. But nevertheless, it was still a good shave, and Its nice to feel human again. It was my first use of an Extro cream and I was impressed. Which is good because I bought three of the bloody things.
