Still trying to work out what's irrating my skin now and then. It seems it's not this cream as my skin is as comfortable as possible. Feels like I've not shaved.

I'm beginning to think it's either a combination of products, or (perhaps more likely) some of the different blades I've been trying...

Great two pass shave with no need for any tidying...

Lovely that.
The JR291 tuxedo has a bit of backbone and made short work of the really small amount of the sample today, whipping up enough for 3 very comfortable passes.
Stay safe and enjoy your day all

Caldey Abbey aftershave

For some reason the soap made exceptionally good lather this morning. Perfect air temperature/pressure/humidity? Best water pH and temperature? Perhaps planets are in conjunction somewhere.

I note Tatara's are very much in vogue at the moment so climbing on the bus I present you with my shave themed, 'The No 53a'

20230510_161405.jpg

Bus stop - Tatara Nodachi
Fares please! - Polsilver Lodz
Bus lane - Steven Jagger 30mm Cashmere
Single decker - Extro Arancia
Double decker - Collegen
Stop the bus please - Hermes vert Orange

Stop this drivel I want get off please


'Contactless? What the frig is that?'

A full on contact shave with the amazing Tatara again. In fact, three different forms of contact in three different directions. Clever stuff. But three smashing clever stuffs resulting in a smashing face which probably needs exactly that, smashing.

A nice revisit to the Arancia and one does need reminding now and then how damn fine these Extros are. Throw some orange Hermes on the final product and smelling mighty fine. One fucking great shave.

So happy I give you the return of the happiest Japanese girlies I know of.......
