Shave four with the Blackland Sabre
Prep....Shower~Olive oil soap
Razor....Blackland Sabre
Blade....Personna Gem Stainless steel
Soap....L'Occitane -Cade
Bowl....Little Wren Pottery
Brush....Semouge OC Boar
Post....Thayers Rose-Jojoba oil
Scent....Bond number 9 New York.....Mr Perfume
My first shave with the Perrsonna Gem stainless steel blade with this razor and to be honest I was very happy with it, there is a slight difference between the Pal Super carbon and the Gem, maybe the Pal Super was slightly smoother, I don't quite know ,hard to put my finger on what the exact difference was but non the less the Gem blade worked very well indeed leaving me clean shaven and irritation free. another really enjoyable shave.
The L'Occitane soap -Cade was fab and soon whipped up a great lather and left me with a great skin feel afterwards.
I'm still very happy with this razor and usealy by now after four shaves with the same razor I would be bored stupid but I'm stll looking forward to my morning shaves with this great razor.
I finnished off with a splash of Thayers and once dry I applied a few drops of Jojoba oil as a light moisturiser .
Bond number 9 New York was rolled onto my pulse points and top of my chest and I'm smeling great!
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend.......Off to walk Taz, the best time of the day, still cool and nobody around so I can let him off his lead for a good run
I have @Floid_Maniac to thank for that, he shamed me by saying my piggies looked like shaggy dogs that had just got out of some water so once dry I wrap the knot in a cardboard tube with a elastic band around it untill I need it again and they all look like new now!I like the picture..... and the brush looks so handsome. I have a seamogue 2000 but it looks like a rock star instead, unlike yours, with the hairs nicely tidied up. Do you do anything to get the hairs looking like that?
Please note, your brush needs to be properly dried before you use this method!I have @Floid_Maniac to thank for that, he shamed me by saying my piggies looked like shaggy dogs that had just got out of some water so once dry I wrap the knot in a cardboard tube with a elastic band around it untill I need it again and they all look like new now!
