Trying to keep the shaves the same, tweaked my superlather with 3 drops of Eucalyptus oil. Great on the face, a nice cool hit.
A very nice razor for the money, £14.95 again. Looks much more expensive, the handle is nice to look at and great to hold.

Shave started off well, the best start of all 3 of the Parker's. Much more akin to what I have been using, 1st pass no issues, 2nd pass I caught my chin, complacency strikes again. Put a stick on & it dried straight up.
A very good 2 pass shave.
I think this one likes the Astra SP.
Well happy, the Floid SE is definitely growing on me and I do like the menthol hit when it first goes on.
Balm and a splash. BBS Skin and smelling - well - nice.
Enjoy your evening all.
