Prep: Valobra Glycerlanolina soap, Myrsol Emulsion
Brush: Paladin Lotus Select Badger
Cream: WSP Barbershop
Razor: Merkur 37C
Blade: Polsilver Super Iridium (3)
Post: Thayers Cucumber Witch Hazel, Myrsol Plastic Shave Aftershave Lotion
Scent: Tauer L'Air Du Desert Marocain EDT

Had the slant angle down on second use of the 37C.

First use of the WSP cream. It is a croap at the firmer end of the scale. Lovely fresh Barbershop scent, and very nice slick lather. It felt great on the skin during the shave, and also postshave (I apply remnant lather for face conditioning whilst I clean up). The postshave was sensational. Checking the ingredients, I noted that aloe juice is high up on the ingredients list (ahead of the fats); also loaded with argan oil and shea butter. Works for me.

An application of witch hazel, then an old favourite - Myrsol Plastic Shave. The lactic acid in this lotion gives a face conditioning like no other in my experience. My skin is rejoicing.
Feeling so good I broke out a flash fragrance to complete the experience.

Simpson Chubby 1/ Maggard ED2band
Hampshire Wool Fat soap
Schick “O” Clone
Schick S/S Twin- Japan ( 2 )
Pitralon Classic A/S Lotion

Got back to my Injector rotation, after testing new AC/SE Razors and comparing them to others.
Compared to them this Injector is really smooth, yet it delivers a really close finish.Quite pleased I got this Clone before they disappeared. No one seems to know where they were made, but owners of the original, say it is well built and the Shave is similar.

Prep: Shower with PAA cube unscented

Pre: PAA cube

Soap: Liz Earle sensitive shave cream

Brush: Yaqi lucky dice

Razor: Homelike Start

Blade: Persona Viking Sword

Post: Alum and Bart’s aftershave balm.
A fab shave in preparation to compare with my newly acquired Masamune tomorrow. Wonderful smooth shave, the Liz Earle is a lovely gentle creamy and foaming lather my wife got me years ago that works just as well with a wet shave than it did with cartridges, better even. The Bart’s balms have so far all been amazing!
