Shave 'Noir' - this weekend - I have been mostly reading Raymond Chandler -

'I was neat, clean, shaved and sober and I didn't care who knew it.'

'From 30 feet away she looked like a lot of class. From 10 feet away she looked like something made up to be seen from 30 feet away.'


Have a good week all - have excellent shaves - yours - I.
 
Today's shave found itself being themed 'A party political broadcast on behalf of The Shaving party'

Minister for razors - General S E Shavington Smythe
MP for Sharpness - The right honourable Lord Feather
Minister for Brushing things (under the carpet) - Sir Cadman of Tuxedo
Chancellor of the Extrochequer - Christofano Cosemi, MP for Arancia
Party whip - Norma Nivea de Moisturiser

Ahem. People. We of the shaving party would like to lay out our plans for a better country and for the benefit of all.

Our policy is simple. Shave, and no more facial hair. Say no to beards and yes to smooth complexions.

Stay alert
Control the fuzz
Save embarrassment

Vote the Shaving Party for a cleaner future and say 'No' to this
'What's a lert?'

A change of scenery for this particular shave and a 'welcome back the General'. My first real foray in to quality SE razors and still a hard act to beat. A smooooooth operator as Sade sang. With a Feather stuck between its cheeks this thing is in face tickling heaven.

This particular jar of Extro has been teetering on the edge of making an entry in to the 'finished' thread for months and it still carries on. It is the dream jar of everlasting soap. And it just happens to be pretty damn fine at what it does.

So a bit like politics. Do some mumbling, talk a load of shite and before you know it the world is fine. And this shave was exactly that. Except this was more than fine this was as close as you can get without removing the epidermis. Real 'Wow!' value. Even a splash of Witch Hazel had me tingling and so smooth I appear to have just raised my political popularity.

Over to the cultural Secretary for a taste of Japanese classical music



Have a wonderful week ahead and may everyone and your families be healthy and well
 
Mon 3 Last Island SOTD
Cream Arko Cool
Brush Yaqi 26mm Rainbow
Razor Edwin Jagger DE89L
Blade Elios Inoxidable 3rd
Aftershave Special Thayers Mix
Hyaluronic + Reuzel Wood & Spice
Enjoyed the lather for the slickness. Scent is too mild but pleasant. Shave with razor paired with the blade was very enjoyable. Ultra smooth, sharpish and extremely comfortable. The blade feels even better than 1st used. 3+1 multiple passes with absolutely no issues at all despite some odd angle pass. More to bbs than dfs. Thayers postshave was excellent for cooling then soothed by Hyaluronic and Reuzel. 9.7/10
