SOTD: Saturday 15th -Friday 21st June 2019.

Agree, Paul. The Polsilvers work well for me with this razor. I also get great shaves with sharper NOS vintage blades such as Wilkies and Gillette Platinum Plus.

Proline
Elite Razors Manchurian
Murphy and McNeil Green Man Fougère
Pitralon Classic aftershave

I'm not usually a daily shaver but I needed another shave after last night's shave with the Vector and feather combo. Didn't like the way my stubble was growing back, sharp and uncomfortable.

Gave the Murphy and McNeil another chance. Was I too hasty to chuck it on BST? Yes. Not sure what I did last time but performance was much improved.

Pre-shave:- Warm rinse / Proraso White pre-shave cream
Brush:- Omega 49 boar
Soap/Cream:-OSP Orange and Patchouli soap
Razor/Blade:- Rockwell 6c Plate R3 / Gillette 7 o'clock green super Stainless (1)
Post-shave:- Thayers Cucumber / OSP Orange and Patchouli aftershave



Got away from work a bit earlier than usual and had 3 days growth. Decided to have an early afternoon shave before heading to the gym.

A smooth shave with a great result!

The boar brush doesn't seem to work too well with the OSP soap so it'll be back to my badger or synthetic when using this soap.

Have a great evening folks! [emoji1303]
 
Wednesday evening

Erasmic Cream
RazoRock BC Silvertip 24mm synth
Face lather
PAL Injectomatic
Schick Proline B
Alum
Thayer's Rose Petal and Aloe Vera
Fine American Blend

Maiden voyage for my newly acquired Injectomatic, courtesy of @nolisco . It gave a fantastic, smooth and comfortable shave; especially with a fresh Proline.

Funny how some of the budget stuff can be the most effective (Palmolive q.v.). The Erasmic is a smashing cream; and a little goes a long way (don't leave too much water in your brush though; the lather was flying around the bathroom, as well as the chops).

Smooth and smelling great.

 

An iKon handle certainly transforms the R41.
