Pre. Imperial Leather face wash
Bowl. Glass
Cream. Proraso Sensitive
Brush. Yaqi Huskey (?)
Razor. Merkur 38C
Blade. Derby Extra (3)
Post. Lather remains face wash, cold rinse, alum, Forest Fresh ASL, Nivea Replenishing ASB, Mastermind Vintage EDT

Great, unhurried, smooth 2+ pass shave with nicely feeling and smelling face afterwards. Can’t decide between my Merkur’s (not that I need to, I can use either or both, but…) the 34c is always quick, smooth and effective, the 38c needing more concentration but being a lovely razor to use.

A nice enough shave although the unknown blade is struggling a little in the Shavette. I will use the other half of the blade anyway and its done.
Enjoy your day all.

Gillette Original Shave Cream & PAA Doppler
Wilkinson Sword Hydro Skin Reset (2)
Pashana Original Aftershave

Huh! Couple of shaves with this Skin Reset razor, which I guess is Wilkinson Sword's equivalent of the Gillette Skin Guard but not as good and certainly not as good as their regular Hydro format even on the Hydro Advanced handle (tonigt) with the extra articulation behind the head.

Nah! Not one I'll be pursuing.

Can't be certain of course but I have some Polsilver Super Iridium that don't have the brand name on the top of the blade but they do say Extra Stainless at the bottom in that sort of font.
Could be one of those.
