Simpsons Commodore X2
Old Spice Fresh Lime Cream
Fatboy @ 6
Lab Blue (2)
Vintage Old Spice AS

First try of this cream, really nice scent, good glide as well. A nice straight lime scent that didnt leave the skin dry, didnt need AS but just thought I'd pair the two.

Anyone know if the Indian old spice lime smells anything like this cream?

Damn it! I shaved ... I went out fencing ... home, shower ... and ... blotchy neck. Damn it! I'm not happy. Ample application of Clubman Club Mend and fingers crossed.

Such a shame, as the shave looked to be a perfect combo, I too have used the soap with the Nuage Men PSO and they go together quite well. Blue Stratos, Blue Stratos... Blue Stratos! What a classic! This is on my shopping list now, god its been such a long time since I wore this.

That is a good photo too Paul, hope all went well with the stabbing of friends.

Cheers! It went very well :D

It's not the shaving combo, but the combination of freshly shaved skin, the mask, heat, sweat, lots of sweat ... and more sweat. I won't be doing it again ... I can get away with the night before a competition, but clearly not a couple of hours before. At least I know now ...

Gillette 7 o'clock SuperPlatinum
Blue Stratos AS
TOBS St. James EdC

Second go with the 7 o'clock black was much better than the first, sharp and smooth blade. Must have made duff lather the first time round or the blade is a better fit in the #15 than it was in the Slim Adjustable. Either way a good shave was had this morning.

Tuesday Night.

Proraso Green Pre
TOBS Sandalwood Cream

Muhle R41 2013 Rose Gold (Thanks Scott)
Sputnik (3)
Nivea Sensitive Balm
Agua de Colonia Concentrada.

Third shave with the R41 and I've got the hang of it now. First pass is easy but if you get the angle wrong on the shorter hair of the second and third passes, it seems to want to bounce about on your face which is quite scary. Once you get the angle down it's a belter of a shave. Just the 2011 one to try now.
