Greetings,
Early morning Shave...
After the wonderful performance from the haslinger Schafmilch Sheep Milk shaving soap at the start of the weekend i've used the aloe vera shaving soap the only difference with the aloe vera soap is it doesn't contain lanolin and like the Schafmilch Sheep Milk has a very faint clean fragrance when wet.
If you like a shaving soap with a strong fragrance, then you will be disappointed with haslinger soap ,as both soaps have a mild unique fragrance which will put some people off using .My personal opinion though is both soaps are exactly the same in performance,slickness protection & post shave feel which for me is the most important thing in a shaving soap or cream..As always opinions are very subjective.YMMV.
Each and every shave that i've had with the Parker 87R the results have been excellent today was no exception.
The Gillette 7'O Clock SE are such a smooth all round efficient smooth blade pairing together with 87r superbly resulting in another very enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups near BBS shave with no errors to report.
Finishing the shave off with some generous dollop of L'0REAL ~ Soothing Birch Sap PSB.
My face is feeling smooth & smelling divine.
Stay safe, and enjoy your Day ladies & gentlemen.
