Greetings,
I've carried on with using blades that have been passed on to me and still yet to try, due to sticking to my usual favourites..
A new shave set up to start the weekend,.second time out with the Asco S.S. blade,i've also made this another 'Shave Cream week' after the fantastic shave i had in my previous shave with the Derby lavender cream,starting the weekend off with another excellent 'turkish delight', 'pardon the pun' the Arko cool cream..
I've mentioned before i'm a great fan of both the arko & derby shave sticks & creams are both equally the same in performance i find the creams in someways better for creating a quick lather the glide, protection & slickness from both creams are amazing leaving a excellent post shave feeling,..It's only recently i've re-discovered my Arko creams & cologne. collection.. I know that some members skin type of 'TSR' forum may have an allergic reaction to these superb turkish made shaving products, which is a great pity, i count myself lucky that i have no skin reaction with either.
The schmidt/asco ss blade, paired together very nicely,another great match, the egyptian made Asco ss blade is superb, like it's very near cousin the shark ss, non-aggressive, but slightly more efficient, & smoother.
A very comfortable 3 pass + pick ups silky smooth efficient shave with no errors to report.
Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of arko ~ cool cologne.
My face is feeling super smooth & smelling devine.
Enjoy the start of the weekend, ladies & gentlemen.
