Dettol Cool shaving cream

Edwin Jagger boar
Yesterday's Super Thin New Stainless / Schick Plus Platinum (third shave)
Superdrug Sierran Breeze a/s

Super Thin blunt during its second shave so SPP took over. Close shave, couple of nicks, a/s stuck luck an absolute *£$!

First time with that particular shaving cream. Great performance (I had twice as much as I needed) and smell is a non-distinct aqua smell and not too strong. The Fresh version of this cream has that bathroom cleaner smell and is overpowering.
 
Gillette Slim Adjustable
Gillette 365 Stainless (3)
New Forest 2213 silvertip
Mitchell's Wool Fat
Proraso Balsamo dopobarba

Bulgari pour Homme

Trying to use this Bulgari up. It was the edt that got me into frags when I was 18. I've had enough of it for now though, and this particular bottle hasn't aged well.
 


Proraso Pre/Post (Original formula)
Gillette Slim '66
Personna Lab Blue
Morris & Forndran stubby 2XL
The Body Shop Maca Root Cream
Witch hazel



Three very nice shaves out of the lab blue for me.

This morning:

Pre: Proraso pre/post white
Soap: Arko
Brush: New forest Tubby 2
Razor: Gillette Aristocrat US Gold
Blade: Feather (1)
Post: Alum and Blightys Punchinello balm
Result: Smooth
 


Pre Veleiro soap + Cyril R. Salter soap + Vulfix 2234 + UFO U2 Long with Weber ARC and Astra blue + Ach Brito Lavanda cologne with Proraso balm

Although this brush is in the floppy&soft side, I hadn't any problem to get a superb lather from this cheap but reliable soap.

A good and smooth shave, gentlemen!

Cheers!
