Very pleasant shave this morning with the Rockwell razor. This razor always surprises me, because, after the first pass my face still feels rather stubbly and after the second pass a little better, but after washing off and applying balm...unaccountably smooth. A great razor with mysterious ways. The LPL soap is one of the tallow versions and gives a wonderful lather with the help of the Plisson.
 
Thursday 18th April SOTD

YaqI 24mm Tuxedo
OSP Barbershop
Timeless 0.68 Scalloped
Voskhod (1)
Floid Mentolado Vigoroso AS



Morning shave today as I have a procedure at the hospital this afternoon.

I'm enjoying using the Timeless with Voskhod blades. I tried an Astra SP recently and it didn't feel as smooth or cut as close as the Voskhod.
OSP Barbershop, as always, performed faultlessly and provided slickness and protection throughout.
Finished with a generous splash of Mentally Vigorous Aftershave.

For those who are working today, I hope home time comes around quickly for you.

Easter starts here !
Hope all goes well Paul. R

Thur 18th April
Stirling Syn. 26mm
Stirling Baker Street
Alu. General / Claymore handle
Schick Proline [ 1 ]
Tuff Green A/ S Lotion

The Claymore handle on the Alu. General is really working well for me, provides that bit of extra weight to follow the mantra "Use the Weight with No Pressure". With a fresh blade and an excellent Lather todays Shave was really enjoyable, trouble free with an excellent close all round finish.

Paul,if your procedure is the gastroscopy (endoscopy),there's nothing to it mate . I've had the procedure twice and without the local anaesthetic.
 
18/4/19

Soap - Palmolive/Lea
Brush - Omega 80265
Razor - Lord L6
Blade - Sputnik
Post - Witch Hazel
Balm - Nivea Replenishing
AS - Superdrug Sierra Breeze

Nice shave today, the Lord L6 & Sputnik are a nice match - smooth & efficient to the face. It might be a cheap splash but the Superdrug Sierra Breeze is one of my favourite splashes for the warmer months of the year.
 
SOTD 18 April 2019

Pre-shave: Warm shower, Wright's Cold Tar Soap, cold water splash.
Soap: MDC.
Brush: Shavemac ' The Flat Top' Slivertip.
Bowl: Giles Shaving Co - Spotty Pedstal Wet Shaving Bowl.
Razor: Pils 101NE.
Blade: Feather New-HI-stainless (3).
Post: Cold water, Floid Vigoroso followed by Ibiza Aloe - ALoe Vera Gel.

A good shave today 2 passes with DFS+/BBS- finish. I feel is if I am getting the hang of the Pils in terms of consistancy of angle.

With best wishes,

Chris
