Many thanks for this offer Briallen.
Sample arrived Thursday so top marks for a quick delivery. Had a little sniff of the pot to whet my appetite and found it to have a mild chemical/hospital type scent. Not to worry i thought, it`s here to do a job, and we all use aftershave don`t we.
Usual night time shave routine as follows;
7:30pm , pre cans of Stella, wash and rinse. Gillette slim loaded with a feather, on it`s 5th day so close to the edge. Superlather using Palmolive lemon scent cream mixed on Pecksniffes oriental soap. 3 pass shave, warm rinse, cold rinse then allum block. Felt a very mild tingle with the allum, nothing to worry about, as I said the feather was on day 5. Dried my face then as per usual I dipped my fingers into the moisturiser. It looks and feels like a slightly watered down version of Brylcreem. Applied to 3 fingers of both hands then gently massage onto face. It spreads well, very well. Immediately the chemical smell has gone, there`s nothing, so it won`t clash with your favourite aftershave. I must have got the quantity just right because it covered my face with leaving no greasy residue, not on the face nor the fingers. No grease, no shine, no dryness, no irritation, no conflicting aroma, just a nice clean skin .
Friday morning came with a quick wash, then a dab on the face without shaving. Same as yesterday, no dryness, no grease or oily patches, just clean skin. Shave in the evening , as yesterday but with a fresh feather. Same result, soft clean skin.
I`m going to stick with this for the week , same routine changing nothing but for a new blade and I`ll see how it goes , but for now I`m impressed.
Post shave, Stella time.
