For face lathering with a menthol product it's hard to beat this for quality or value:

Tuesday

Proraso pre/post
Neo custom 2 band finest
MWF
HD +Superthin (1)
Alum
Sandalwood skin food
Aloe vera in places

Thought I would change razor today, havent used the HD for ages. Definitely gives a more agressive shave than the EJ. Got some irritation on neck area.
Also, my lather didnt seem as good today. ( after what I said about MWF in another thread.. bloody typical).

Back to the EJ mastiff next time.

Tuesday Night:

  • - sinks full of lovely cold clean water...
    • Very nice after a long day at the office
      • (mine is right over the home's kitchen, with no A/C, and the breeze from the wrong direction to be drawn in by a desktop oscillating fan),
        • and the two bus rides of over an hour each way to and from work,
          • uphill both ways of course!

              • ... with breathing breaks of course[/list:u]

Result: Ok
Lovely shave, until I nicked myself right under the honker - went in to steep with the blade :evil: Then I nicked myself AGAIN :roll: , I think it was due to the fact I never managed to get rid of the bad mojo from the first nick. Clean enough shave though and nice blade ... and very sharp :roll:
