Lovely shave. Think these blades are only good for 2 or 3 shaves though - not bad really considering the price.
Have a nice Saturday gents.

pre Calcutta Cup
Feather Popular
Derby x 4
404 bodger
Kiss-My-Face cream
Cade a\s
first try with KMF (sample from fozz) and this is the runniest cream i've ever tried\seen, so i probably got more on the brush than normal from dipping the tub :roll:
very slick, bordering on a razor-clogger
the only other time i've experienced that was with EJ's Sea Buckthorn cream
the Cade a\s stung a bit initially but that might be the Derby
Mrs H didn't like the smell though

Unidentified Gillette New o.c. with open ball-end
Kai Blade
Honey Sandalwood soap (from Boab)
Kent BK4
Alum Block
Body Shop Men's White Musk Moisturising AS Balm
The magic combination today - the Kai blade was on its third use, the soap lather was perfectly whipped up & slick, and the razor was just right for my face. BBS with zero irritation or burn - perfect!

Does anyone else think that Teiste's 'SOTD' photos remind you of 'Marks & Spencers' TV adeverts - ie: His aren't like other shaves... His are ... 'M & S' shaves... I love 'em and it has inspired me to set up the next days shave wirh things that look good together ... PS... does he do vouchers?
Sat Night/ Sun Morn
Merkur Futur (1)
Personna Red (1)
Boots Soap
Vulfix 2235 Super
Alum
Boots ASB
A 1st try of the Futur so dialled down to 1, too mild I think, a little adaptation of technique is needed! Not found issues with getting in under the nose or sideburns and not found the handle overly slippy. I good shave but not close.

First time I've posted on SOTD !!
Wash face in the shower with Noxzema cream - I used to use this a lot and found a tub the other day. Cleans really well and love the menthol hit!
Proraso cream - first time I've used this. Lather straight onto face but next time will try doing it in a mug. Nice rich lather with a hint of menthol.

Red personna (2) - Had a break for 2 days as the iridium really knackered my face.

Old Space (Indian)
2nd week of DE shaving and had a set back when using iridiums. This time really concentrated on blade angle and going slow. Much better shave and no cuts! Will stay away from the iridiums for a while though :shock:
