Omega s10065 synthetic
Williams Ice Blue Cream
Schick Type M Dial Adjustable
Schick NOS T/C Twin [ 4 ]
Alum Rub/Rinse Off
Williams Ice Blue Aqua Velva A/S Lotion

Again used the Schick Adjustable/Twin Blade combo , to see how it fared using a cream. A Previously used razor loaded with a Twin seemed to clog up and its performance somewhat lacking.

Need not have worried, the little brush whipped up a really rich lather in a flash. The shave was ultra smooth and comfortable , and the finish quite amazing, has to be my best shave with this razor. As "Fergiebilly' has often said, this razor is transformed when used with a Twin Blade. May not be the most pretty of razors but
it is extremely good at delivering great shaves.

SOTD June 14, 2016
This morning I decided to switch up my soaps and start using MWF again. I cut a piece of my puck and pressed it into an Old Spice mug. I had it in a 1 cup Pyrex container, but the container was quite full and I wanted some space to whip up a lather. The OS mug is just the ticket...I left about 3/4 of the mug empty, so I have lots of room to lather.
This Schick blade has been inconsistent. It has not been as smooth as others I have used. Even today it just didn't feel as comfortable. Its been 9 days since I last switched. I think tomorrow I will either switch to a DE or replace the blade.
This morning I also used MWF bath soap. It is as amazing as the shaving soap. Great product.
Pre: MWF bloom water
Razor: Schick Type G
Brush: Simpsons Special
Soap: MWF
Post: RB Balm, Proraso green ASB (just a bit)...
