Sunday

White proraso pre/post
NF 2201
MWF
Flare tip rocket +astra (3)
Alum
Proraso ASB

Lovely lather, good 3 pass shave, wtg, 2x atg. Felt a bit of sore after, so got the alum out to check, a little tingle, and nothing more - surprising, but the alum doesnt lie.
5 mins later and face feels nice. I am loving this proraso ASB.

Sunday Evening:

    • - EJ89L & SuperMax Sunrise Super Stainless
      - Godrej Menthol Mist & Le Tuft Cobalt Blue
      - Rose Thayers'
      - Kartopu Kolonya Gül Suyu Turkish RoseWater
      - Nivea Anti-irritation ASB[/list:u][/list:u]

      I had no irritaton, I just wanted to see what te balm was like as it's almost been a week since I picked it up ... and I was getting tired of just carrying it around with me all that time. Just kidding - about the 'carrying it around' in my hand for a week, part.
        • Not too bad, but not sure how well it'll stop any irritation, as mostly, nowadays, the major irritation I get is middle-management and above, at work.[/list:u][/list:u]

          The Godrej Menthol Mist was very nice; more 'cooling' than Ingram, possibly moreso than Proraso cream too. ... and the lather was at least the equal of their Lime scented shave cream.

          The SuperMax Sunrise was at least as sharp as the SuperMax Tiger super platinum, but I don't think it was quite as smooth. Two and most of a 3rd passes made for a RNR*.


          * NOTE:
            • RNR = Rather Nice Result.
