This week will be Keep It Simple Shave (KISS) Week for me. Here is Monday's set up. Menthol Monday's Planned ShaveC.O. Bigelow Ever-Ready 200T Boar GEM Contour GEM Blue STAR CS SE CWR Aqua Velva Musk The C.O. Bigelow Shaving Cream face-lathered well with the Ever-Ready 200T Boar brush. I did two passes with the GEM Contour Razor with a GEM Blue STAR CS SE blade blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Pre: Cold water face wash Brush: S_J Zebrano 24mm ST Soap: CRSW Select Bergamot & Bay Razor: Gem MMOC Blade: Gem Stainless ptfe Post: Cold water rinse, Vitamin E Oil, Boots Bay Rum A sublime beginning to what looks like another sunny week and the Open Comb reminded me why it's my favourite Micromatic. Helped along its way by the very slick CRSW lather and capped off by the cheap but lovely Boots Bay Rum. Happy Shaving one and all.

Schick M1 Adjustable razor Personna 74 blade WD Silver Tip brush Institut Karit SS Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe Colorado Sage cologne
1st time with the Institut Karite SS. Lathers easily, has a pleasant scent but didn't seem to offer much protection. Could be cuz it's my 1st use of it and that it will get better. Hope so. I'll use it a few more days to find out. Now go enjoy your day folks

Monday 9th July Vulfix 404 mixed Arran Aromatics Bay Citrus ATT SE1/Windrose Handle Schick Proline [ 9 ] Jaguar Prestige A/S Lotion Have often heard it said that these AC/SE Razors are too large and unwieldy,yet I have had no problems with them so far. In fact I rather like the way that the extra blade width quickly and efficiently clears such areas as the cheeks. This ATT SE1 with a non stock handle is really manoeuvrable and I again had a most comfortable yet close Shave.

Tabac Tuesday's ShaveTabac Ever-Ready 200T Boar GEM Contour GEM Blue STAR CS SE CWR Aqua Velva Musk The Tabac Shave Soap face-lathered well with the Ever-Ready 200T Boar brush. I did two passes with the GEM Contour Razor with a GEM Blue STAR CS SE blade blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed... This Ever-Ready 200T Boar brush is not much of a looker. The bristles are rather thin, but it is proving to be a great little brush. I was thinking of reknotting it, but now I think I will keep it as is.
