A very pleasant two pass shave today, very close and comfortable. My DE razor collection will be thinned by two; the Razorock Game Changer .68-P and the Ikon Deluxe both of which are just a bit less efficient than my other DE and SE razors. Oops my bad!
 
Pre = Fitjar Islands Charcoal Bar
Razor = Wilkinson Sword Sticky
Blade = Supermax Blue Diamond 2
Brush = PAA Phantom Aerolite

40A889EF-A00B-4AAB-88E6-B86D9083ECC7.jpegBit of a late shave for me tonight but class just the same,
I seem to be doing a run of creams at the moment although not intentional it just seems to have happened that way.
Obviously this is a bit of a Blue theme but the shave was brilliant.
I haven’t used Fitjar Islands in probably nearly 12 months which reminds me i really need to try their soaps,
I’m unsure when they brought soaps out but defo one i’ll be going for.
The Whole Combo was a delight and second use of the Blue Diamond which still feels good.
Onwards & Upwards
Stay Safe Guys

Just a great soap! Nice scent with cooling sensation plus a wonderfully creamy and slick lather!
An absolutely cracking shave with this razor paired with the blade! So easy to whip around...silky smooth in 3passes for a bbs finish. Much faster too...no regrets for this and yesterday's Kamisori. Aftershaves were terrific!

Brush: C&H `Casanova'
Soap: Mammoth Hygge
Razor: CG Everyday
Blade: GSB (3)
Post: Cold Water and Mammoth Hygge Balm

Well I had to take to the everyday today after the disrespect I showed to the Dart yesterday, a definite wise course of action. Took my time on prep and worked up a good face lather, light touch passes riding the cap led to an irritation free smooth finish...phew.

I would say lesson learnt but I'm sure when the memory fades I'll make the same mistake again.

Hope everyone has a cracking day!

Cheers

Marc
