Pears Glycerine Soap
Vitos Preshave Cream
RazoRock Nomad Shaving Soap
Omega 10051 Boar Brush
Ikon X3 on a Windrose Damascus Handle with a Nacet Blade
Witch Hazel
Aloe Vera Gel
Vitos Tobacco AS

When I first used the X3 I was almost underwhelmed......however with a sharp blade....this razor is both comfortable to use, and very efficient.

I can't remember when I last had 2 weeks off work and it has been most therapeutic and enjoyable! Unfortunately it is back to the grind tomorrow. I hope everyone enjoys what is left of the Bank Holiday.

Pre- shower and face wash.
Brush - Razorock Plissoft
Soap - Barrister & Mann Chypre
Razor - Schick M1 adjustable
Blade - Schick
Post - BBA

I use either my Schick M1 or E at least a few times a week. It's hard to beat the comfort and additional blade rigidity an injector gives over a DE. Still love DE as well.

Stirling Syn. 26mm
P & B Citra Royale
ATT SE-G + Modified base plate
Gem S/S [ 5 ]
Tuff Green A/S Lotion

Completed my 5th consecutive Shave with the modded ATT SE-G. Used the Citrus Royale for the second time, this quality lather encouraged me to do those extra polishing strokes needed to eradicate my stubborn growth. The Shave was smooth and comfortable with an ultra close all round finish, and despite the extra work no soreness or irritation arose. Really excellent result considering the blade was on its Fifth use, may push for one more.

APR Velours Noir.
YaQi ‘Mysterious'.
Masamune/Nacet.

Another great shave with the open comb plate and a Nacet on its second use. It's a lovely razor which mows down a few days' growth like there's nothing there. One pass and touch-ups and I'm smooth. Great scent with the Velours, it's sweet and woody but with a pastel-chalky aspect to it. Regardless, it smells good and performs great. Same to be said for the mentholated splash and EdT from the set, both of which I'm also donning. One or two more uses of this razor and I'll be ready to pass it on.
