Just happened to notice your last comment, really surprised the AS is stinging like that, this is the third day? It should have settled down by now. Do you want me to change it for you?

Tuesday

5/8 Vintage EA Berg Frameback
Omega cream
Simpsons Commodore X1
Lloyds Chemist Witch Hazel
Body Shop Maca Root AS Balm
Pinaud Clubman Virgin Island Bay Rum

Lovely little straight that arrived from Neil today - very light, slight, small but sharp; it requires a different, firmer hold to keep it at the correct angle but it does give a great shave!
 
Hiya,

I posted my SOTD earlier, but needed to say something here. This goes to another thread about a review of that damn Martin de Candre soap, in which I asked the posters to just stop talking about that stuff already! It's driving me a little nuts because I'm having a hard time rationalizing buying some. Yeah I know all the tricks (although Peter is pretty good I gotta say). I mean $67 for one jar of soap is....well, maybe in a very weak moment sometime.

So I see lots of members using this stuff in this thread...........sheesh. Can't you switch to Arko or Williams or something?

Sorry for the slight rant. I hope I didn't put anyone off their bubble and squeak.

Wednesday

Body Shop maca root cream, TOBS travel brush in pure.
Gillette SS flare tip with Gillette 7 o'clock green (1)
Merkur 34C HD with Arco (1)
Cold rinse, alum
TOBS bay rum splash

Dissapointing first shave with a super speed... no real bite so went in for a second go with the HD and an Arco. Better.
 
Wednesday

Kropp 5/8
New Forest 2201 Brush
Proraso Cream
Alum
Nivea Sensitive asb

Was a bit short of time and rushed a bit, which was a mistake as I now have a sore face. Should really have used a DE given the time constraints.

Wednesday

Merkur 34C
Shark SS
No Name Badger Brush
Arko Stick
Generic Witch Hazel
Bleu de Chanel AS

Nothing much to report other than the Shark seemed to lose it's edge towards the end of the shave. I think it was the 4th shave with that blade.

Other than that, all good.
