Thu 4 SOTD
Soap Catie's Bubbles Ocean Grove
Brush DS Cosmetics 26mm Badger
Razor Parker OC
Blade Shark Platinum 3rd
Aftershave Aqua Velva Ice Blue
Lovely lather from this soap. Easily whip up by the excellent brush. Light refreshing marine scent and matched nicely with the aftershave. This blade in the razor provided a very nice smooth shave. Easy 3passes without any issues for a dfs finish.

Thur 4th August

Cyril Salter. MS ED2band
Lea Classic soap
ATT SE1
Feather Proguard ( 7 )
Lea Classic A/S Lotion

Recent Shaves have indicated that the Feather Proguard works really well in The SE1 for me.. Today I used it fitted with a Timeless Ti Crown Handle, which enhanced the balance and performance of The Razor.
The Shave was so nice, extremely smooth and comfortable and the kind of finish attained with ease can be described as a “ Face Stroker”

A complete F- Up at work and now i’m here,
don’t know if i’m home for a week or a month.
That’s what happens when you employ clowns.
never mind rant over.
Iv only been away 2 weeks but was craving the wonderful Eucris,
I can’t remember whether iv used this twice or three times but it’s genuinely up there as a favourite of not the number 1.
The scent is wonderful & my Dog loves it or i think she does and as every man knows it’s the dog that counts
oh actually the wife likes it as well but that’s neither here nor there.
hope she doesn’t read this lol.
The Razor i hadn’t used in months,
if the truth be told i could never make up my mind if i liked it & a tad to aggressive for my liking
HOWEVER today was the best shave iv ever had with it.
whether it was the pairing of the blade or the fact i treat it with respect or perhaps my technique is just a bit better or a combination of all three but it was a class shave.
The Brush was a bst buy for me.
After i seen @Boycie83 Ruby Red Duke 3 i just instantly liked the colour & a week or so later this appears on the bst,
A Truly remarkable 3 pass shave,
onwards & upwards
Stay Safe Boys

And for this evening's frolicking bristle removing activities my sink time is themed, 'Signature Soups'

20220804_191104.jpg

Wisctun - Ikon B1
Wsicnut - Wizamet Super Iridium
Wscitun - Signature Soaps Wicstun
Wicstnu - AP Shaving 24mm Cashmere
Wi'cunts (Scottish inquisition) - Signature Soups Londminium


'Aye did ye shave ye bawbags?'

So a shave which firstly needs a thank you to @Digimonkey for the Wizamet blades.

Now the last of the Lodz blades are ex-last, I have been looking at possible replacements for the day my personal stash are no more. So far the Gillettes with the 7 O'clocks, the rubies and the Nacets have left a positive impression, so here I have a new blade to rip myself to bits with. And if I'm going to shred skin what better place to start than the Ikon B1.

First though a great medium with Brian's shaving soup and his Signature Market Weighton. Delivered wonderfully by the AP Cashmere. A tick in the box for team lather.

And the blade? Well to be honest the face feel is almost identical to the Lodz and I don't get that sense of unfamiliarity. In the B1 it worked absolutely wonderful and the razor gave its usual stupidly close finish in such a smooth manner. This blade touches my shaving heart.

I am just disappointed my jar of Wicstun is actually spelt correctly. Imagine what it could be worth if it wasn't? Shaving soaps. The new misspelt album sleeves.

Back on track, a superbly delivered shave and I sit here feeling divine and with a rubbery face.

And I end with the Flamenco a go go girls. A new offering from my bible of Japanese girly bands.....




Well that one didn't get very far so you can have another band of Japanese ladies doing their 'It could only be Japan' thing

Then I must try harder

Do we have blue flashing light to accompany posts as a pre-warning in the menus?
