Balm: Barts Balm Amber and Moroccan Jasmine Balm & Lotion
Aftershave: Williams Aqua Velva Musk
A nice gentle on the skin shave today, my face is still a bit raw from the wind burn of the last couple of Days.
As i have finished all of my Wickhams pre shave soaps, i Started with a cold water face wash with the Pears transparent original, just as good if not better than the Wickhams - YMMV
So glad i planned the Williams soap for today, a very gentle Lather.
The VC1 is such a smooth shaver, really mild but efficient, better than the Oneblade core i had with much more soul and looks to die for.
Only 2 passes required after yesterdays really close shave leaving me smooth and comfy.
A nice Post shave with the Barts Balm really soothing the skin, a little indication from the splash but not too much, again its the wind burn not the shave. I think i prefer the AV Musk to the AV Original.
Stay safe and enjoy your evening All
