Haslinger Schafmilch Shaving Soap & Omega 11137 Pure Bristle
Gillette Labs Black & Gold Edition w/Gillette Labs Cartridge (8)
Brut Splash-On (as Aftershave)

Continuing on the Milky May with my setup for the week ...

Same again.
 
For the bank holiday weekend and for the King's coronation, I used Signature Britannia. Also continued with the black beauty and the vintage blade. Had some wonderful shaves.
Today though, I'd shaved that well yesterday that I could leave it a little longer today. Used the T&H 1805 which has a nice scent. The blue tip is a little too mild and I would say that it's definitely one for a late evening tidy up rather than taking down a full day's worth.
Different razor tomorrow I think will do the Bolzano blade justice.
Have a nice evening all

Greetings,

Another great inexpensive shave to end my shaving week off on a high.

The hefty efficient Parker 94R has performed wonderfully throughout the week with both Dorco PP blades.

The star highlight of this week was my Head/dome shave with the Gillette Guard at the weekend...I was pleasantly surprised by how good its performance & shaving ability was which was i have to say equal to my Injector razors. Very impressive indeed.

Another enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Wilko Men's Moisturiser.

My face is feeling smooth cool, & smelling divine. ;)

Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen. :cool:

Razor: CG Level 3
Blade: Wizamet

Decent shave this morning, smooth and drama free run with the Level 3 CG plate (newest gen). Fancied a comparison after the gen 1 plate yesterday. It's certainly smoother, a lot less 'dangerous' by comparison and only a touch less efficient, if at all.

Hope everyone has a grand one!

Cheers

Feel like a million bucks, very smooth face after two passes followed up by an application of aftershave and spritz of cologne. Now of to do some gardening, applying a nematode solution to the back lawn to get rid of a few developing ants nests before they do any damage.
