Aug. 18, 2021 - MMOC day 18

This little piggy..... built up great lather in a bowl. This little MMOC... provided near DFS in one pass, second one taking it to near BBS. Some touchups on the neck - and no BBS there still.

Blade is still smooth, only slightly tuggy in places where the growth is thickest, but it's doing its job. Definitely can throw it with reckless abandon now without much worry for my face. Although I say that - I did pick up a small nick on the spot. Other than that all good. DFS to BBS shave.

Finished off with a good dose of aftershave - no stinging other than around the nick area. I can live with that.

By the way, did I mention that I'm bored by this scent yet? No? Yes? I don't care. I'm saying it again - It's boring! Definitely not picking up ADP Colonia in nearest future lol...

Soap • La Toja Stick
Brush • Simpson Trafalgar T3
Razor • Blackland Vector
Blade • Kai Protouch MG (3)
Post • Deliplus N Locion Aftershave

Protouch MG blade coming into It's own on it's third use. Smoothing out nicely.
My shaves with this SE razor are over quite quickly - a very capable tool indeed.
It's been quite some time since I last used La Toja soap, Nothing fancy, with a pleasant enough scent and good performance.
Finished with N Locion seaweed extract Aftershave. Inoffensive aquatic scent and very nourishing. Readily available in Spanish supermarkets for €2.20 for a large bottle.

Uniquely scented soap! Between sweet to cigarish to, hmmm...anyway the lather is creamy and slick enough...
Shave with razor paired with this blade was still good...another smooth and comfortable 3passes without any issues for a bbs finish. The matching aftershave balm ensured a lasting aromatic scent for the entire day...

Greetings,

Early morning shave,

The Ming Shi 2000s has performed wonderfully throughout the week providing me with comfortable enjoyable shaves and have paired together with the SuperShave X Platinum superbly of which i intend to continue using for the next few weeks or more.

The Frankensoap lathered up in short space of time, remaining stable without dissipating on my face providing a 'citrusy-lemon-medicinal scented' lather with great slickness & protection for each pass leaving a good adequate post shave feel without drying my rhino type mature skin out.

A Enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report...Finishing to the shave off with a small dollop of Arko Comfort ASB.

My face is feeling smooth cool, & smelling divine.;)

Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

No post shave

An excellent shave. The Polsilver worked a treat in the EJ.
As for the soap? Well I’ll reserve judgment until I’ve used it a few more times but not getting any reaction from an A&E soap was a first.

Take it easy folks.

Cheers

Pre Friendly Soap Shave Bar
Brush Grosvenor 404 'Bodger'
Soap Culmak
Razor Pearl Flexi/Gillette Winner Platinum
Post Palmers Unscented/Arko Orange AS
Scent D&G 'The One'

Having heard that Eco Warrior is being reformulated....I decided to try a shave bar from one of my local Chemists at half the price it is sold from Amazon. A lucky escape. In my opinion it is useless. Lots of
airy bubbles...no lather or cushion....but very slick. It has been relegated to a pre shave bar. The only positive was the find of a couple of Wilkinson Sticks which I promptly bought!
The Pearl Flexi continues to impress. It is soooo comfortable to use and gives stellar results.

3 passes for a perfect result :)
