French Pink Clay & Charcoal Face Soap
Wickham 1912 Shangri La Shaving Soap
Semogue SOC Butterscotch (Boar)
Muhle Rocca R95
SuperMax Sunrise Super Stainless (1)
Jovan Musk Aftershave Cologne

... which is exactly the same as the regular SuperMax Super Stainless in the green and yellow packaging. The blade has the self-same markings and the shave felt just the same: straight-up, good, honest 8/10 stainless blade shave. My kinda shave!

No golden blade so far.

The normal brilliant lather from the Signature soaps, bowl lathered with the Alpha Ti lather monster setting up todays shave.
I completed a 2 pass shave routine 1st pass WTG then a Mixed pass on the cheeks and ATG on the neck, a little touch up on the Devils whirlpools for a DFS++ finish.
A very nice post shave finishing with the Danum splash, very nice.
Stay safe and enjoy your day All

Thanks, as always

Lea ASB

Great shave again with the Parker/Voskhod combo, testing out the Lea menthol shave cream.
I always liked the lea scent and performance but wasn't feeling much of a menthol hit from this stuff at all, still a nice cream though!
The Lea balm is fantastic and for 2 quid from Connaught, it feels even lovelier!

Saturday 27th February

French Pink Clay & Charcoal Face Soap
Wickham 1912 Apricus Shaving Soap
Semogue SOC Butterscotch (Boar)
Muhle Rocca R96
SuperMax Sunrise Super Stainless (2)
Alvarez Gomez Agua de Colonia

Second shave with this SuperMax Sunrise Super Stainless and ... yes, it's the regular SuperMax Super Stainless in the green/yellow packaging.

I've had Alvarez Gomez Agua de Colonia stuck at the back of my frag cabinet, so it's been nice to use it. The blade put me in mind of sunshine and what with it being a lovely sunny day today which I spend fettling some landscaping in the garden, the shave was finished off just right with a further splash of sunshine.

Enjoy your weekend, folks!

Wrong week P.

Whiskers are somewhat trapped, and the middle of the razor holds water, why is this a good thing?
