It was a good two pass Sunday shave. I think I might have a minor allergy to the shave cream. It leaves my face slightly itchy. I won't be buying it again. Even though the Old Spice isn't what it was it is still a great fall scent. I decided I need to be a bit more generous with the usage since I lost a couple of bottles of Brut to old age. The scent just gave up. To be fair it was over two years old and that is all that fragrance is usually stable for. Some last longer but that isn't to be expected.

The Alpha Outlaw Evo aluminium with a slightly less sharp blade like this Rapira is a great match and adding a little pressure makes the shave smoother

Pre - Sainsbury's Luxury Soap Fig and Jasmine
Brush - Simpson Wee Scot Best Badger
Soap - Martin De Candre Rose
Razor - PILS 101 NL Hi Polished "Thor's Hammer"
Blade - 7 o' Clock Yellow
Post - Cold water Rinse
Balm - Tonyschin's Lime E45 / Argan oil Balm
A/S - Mäurer & Wirtz 4711 Rose

A very nice shave today with the Polished PILS, The lather took some building on the chin with the Tiny "Wee Scot", i loaded the little brush for about 15 - 20 seconds then tip dipped and built up the lather on the chin, the little brush struggled to hold the amount of lather it produced, although i did just about manage a full 3 pass shave with some buffing on the more stubborn areas. I finished with a very comfortable BBS finish.
The SharpEdge blade worked really well, however, I do find that either a shim or using a KAI blade works much better giving the super-smooth PILS a bit more edge.
Enjoy your day all.
