Autumn evenings are upon me, so time for the super-moisturising Tabula Rasa soap. Also time to give my minty NOS Wilkinson Sword Sticky her first dance.
A natural partner was a blade from the same family and period - the London Bridge.
Three very comfortable passes - the blade could hardly be felt. A very pleasant DFS and the usual superb post shave from this soap.

A very smooth and effective shave using a Proline in the Vector, the Oud soap worked a treat and had a great post shave feel and the smell of the Oud is still on my skin hours later!

Razorock Game Changer 0.84
Polsilver
Super Dense Manchurian Finest
Agua de Colonia Barberia Shaving Cream
Fine Italian Citrus

Haven't used Agua de Colonia Barberia cream for a long time. It was as good as I remember, fantastic performance. The brush whipped up a thick lather and a pleasure to use.
The Game Changer continues to impress.


Have a peaceful Sunday and a good week Gents.

Cheers

Pre: Pears transparent original soap
Brush: Semogue 1460
Soap: Arlo stick/Macca root Lime & Lavender superlather,
Blade: Astra SP (1)
Razor: Parker 22R Butterfly
Post shave: cold water splash, Alum block, homemade Witch Hazel lavender/grapefruit/lime/patchouli astringent,
Balm: D&G Intenseo balm
Aftershave: Floid SE Mentolado Vigoroso A/S

Another day another Razor.
Very nice shave tonight, 2 passes WTG & ATG, all good no issues.
Lather was superb with the added lime & lavender oil given a wonderful aroma on mixing and on the face.
Again I cannot complain about the quality of the shave for £14.95, however, I need to put a different blade in as I do not think my go to Astra SP are doing as well in these razors.
It is a lovely looking razor in gun metal, although lighter than I like. Blade sat well in butterfly and no movement.
