SOTD Sat 1st Sept to Frid 7th Sept 2012

Shaved in the bath tonight:

Erasmic brush
TOBS lemon and lime cream
Merkur HD34G
Derby blade
Finished off with Witch Hazel and Old Spice Classic aftershave.

I thought I might be a little tender after as I skipped the pre-shave oil and used no balm, but actually my face feels very comfortable and smooth.
 
Edwin Jagger DE89
Wilkinson english blade
Kent BK8
Geo trumpers sandalwood hard soap
Alum
Nivea white bottle balm

Have they stopped making this hard soap now just cannot find it in stock anywhere??
 
Prep: Old Spice High Endurance face wash
Cream: Edwin Jagger Sea Buckthorn
Brush: Edwin Jagger synthetic bristle
Razor: Merkur 25C with Boots DE comb
Blade: Timor
Post: Body Shop Maca Root

A bit of an experiment, fitting the Boots DE comb to a Merkur razor making it a closed comb razor. It felt like shaving with the Boots DE razor, but with a better handle.

Using up what's left over of the BS Maca Root. Overall, a close shave, and the Timor blade seems to work better.

Greetings

Sunday 2nd Septmber 2012
Prep: Shower
Razor: Ever Ready Featherweight
Blade: Modern GEM Coated
Brush: Omega 10810 Boar
Soap: GZD Pressed into a container
Aftershave: King of Shaves Face Balm

An ok shave which could have been better had I used a new blade.

The King of Shaves balm I am not terribly fond of, it contains menthol as an ambush ingredient, listed only in the small print; I am not over fond of menthol.

Just as well it was only a pound from savers!

Regards
Dick.
