Greetings
Saturday 14th September 2013
Prep: Shower
Razor: Schick Adjustable
Blade: Schick Super Stainless Platinum NOS
Brush: Vulfix 404 Mixed
Soap: Scent From Heaven XS
Aftershave: Astral Cream (light)
An interesting shave, I was given this soap by a kind fellow member here who did say there was something in it that did not agree with his skin.
On the second pass my face felt on fire as if I had been stung by nettles. I stopped straight away and after several cold water rinses the sensation completely went away. I was able to complete the last pass using Lea Cream. I have no after effects at all. Interesting how two of us have had the same reaction, the only soap in the past that has had a similar (but lesser) effect is a Boots Shave stick.
After all of that still a perfect finish! These NOS blades that came with this razor are very good indeed.
Regards
Dick.
