As it’s still freezing, I had another scuttle shave to provide a lovely warm lather. As it’s easier with cream, I went VERY old school and dug out the Palmolive Classic Crème. I overlook the Palmolive, which is a mistake, it’s inexpensive, nicely scented and works very, very well - producing a soft and slick lather. Luckily I have another two unused tubes, underneath the sink.
As one would expect, the Merkur 34C and a Shark blade, worked really well with the crème and I had a perfect, effortless, face-strokingly good shave.
Stay warm people!
