Evening all,
So please forgive the item I mention today but you never know when you might want to use some!
Prep, hot water and flannel
Brush, Semagogue
Razor, Lupo DLC (Aluminium one)
Blade, Shavemax Diamond Edge (1st use)
Cream, Bond Retro (Canned Goo)
A/S, Bond Classic
The goo did not create the best lather despite a lot of work and adding water and more goo. It was not the best for application and retention either. That said, I was reasonably pleased with the end result.
I’d say it gave a functional and reasonably close shave. Not as good as previous shaves using soaps / proper creams. But not where I felt I’d wasted the opportunity for a good shave.
My observations on the Bond Goo. I wouldn’t get it again, but I’d recommend the La Toja versions which I picked up recently. The results were far better scent / lather / and application. And similar in price as well.
But most soaps / creams I’ve used would outperform canned goo I’d suggest. I hope this assists others.
Best,
Ben
