Greetings,

A new shave set up to start the weekend...Another uber/superlather week also after the superb shave i had the Parker 55SL / Gillette Winner Blade duo recently i'll be using the same fantastic indian made duo for all my SOTDs this week,and carrying on using the gillette winner blade for the next month or beyond....

Starting with the OSP grapefruit & menthol cream which is another item in my shaving den i've infrequently used and forgot what a wonderful great wake up call to your face sensors it gives, mixed togther with the VDH soap created a excellent superlather only a small amount is required to get a great lather in no time with a very nice citrusy scent and plenty of menthol goodness,and a excellent post shave feeling to my face.

The Parker 55SL was a joy to shave with mowing through my stubble with effortless ease,resulting in another very enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups bbs shave with no errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a few generous dollop of Creightons ~ Sensitive PSB.

My face is feeling super smooth and smelling devine.;)

Enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

I am Finally getting around to trying out the blade sample packs i originally bought about a year ago. Well that was a waste of time as i have a couple of thousand now? The Treet worked really well, very smooth.
A very nice, no issue shave today with the King of razors. Nothing at all to worry about.
BBS and smelling top drawer. The Whichams 1912 soaps were also 1 of the first "artisan" soaps i bought and these will be replaced once finished. Fantastic soaps.
Enjoy your Day All
