My Shave today consisted of...
Prep Aleppo soap.
Brush Shave Factory Omega Boar.
Soap Stirling Black Ice.
Razors Leaf & Reggie's razors Mars.
Blade Lord Platinum (2).
Post splash Home made concoction.
Aftershave Stirling Black Ice splash.

The Mars razor is excellent and always delivers but I'm not sold on the Lord blade, I think for me anyway that the Silver Star blade is better and smoother.
I copied basic recipe from @Palmolive fox but used Peppermint and Tea Tree oils mixed with Menthol crystals.
It made a lovely cooling spray the made my skin feel fabulous.
I will be using this with every Shave from now on I think and so easy to make.
Many thanks for passing on your knowledge.

I know my Shave was fantastic as I stepped outside and stopped the neighbours wife "look at my clean shaven face and say out loud the very first word that pops into your head" she replied in a heartbeat "Orgasmic"
Nuff said enjoy the night everyone.

see ya goodbye GIF

Decent shave with this combo and enjoyably topped off with the Brut Oceans which I've never bought before.

I wonder if the blade will rust before tomorrow's shave like the last two Razer blades did?

Superb lather qualities and a strong lasting scent!
This solid razor was refreshed with tape on 0.1um diamond balsa followed by the HBA. The resulting edge was a buttery smooth and crisply keen balance...very nice!!

I like a heavier handle on the Tech and the Windrose handle just lets the razor show off a bit.

Savonnaire du moulin
SOC Cherrywood boar
Valet VC2
Feather #5
SMN dopo cream

Switched the blade for its final use into the VC2 which is an open comb and the model produced to only fit proprietary Valet blades going forward ( Feathers have the cut outs to fit ) an ok shave as the blade was struggling towards the end but smooth face the result finished up with a thin application of the super SMN dopo cream.
