Shave of the day Saturday 22nd - Friday 28th July 2017



First outing with the OB Core. Utilizing 'Steve the daily shaver's' advise of a little pressure and long smooth strokes paid dividends. It has given me a really good shave, really good. No irritation and not one weeper, Dolphin smooth in fact. I was a tad worried how this would shave but it's done well. It's a keeper in my den.​
 


This morning shave.

Prep: warm water splash
Razor: WS Hydro 5 (2)
Brush: Simpsons Chubby Synthetic
Cream: Simpsons Peppermint & Rosemary
Post: Forever Aloe Gelly
Scent: Floris Santal

I'm starting to rearlise now that the synthetics hold a lot of water they don't need, I imagine they need to be near dry to get the thick creamy lather I desire.

Not sure why I reached for the wife's gelly but it did a super job, it's left my skin feeling ace with an easily absorbed but thick and matting layer, a good one for the winter I think.
