Pre: Cold water face wash,Pre: Cold water face wash, Brush: Semogue 1470 Boar Soap: OSP Bay Rum Razor: Colonial General Brass Blade: Feather Pro Super Post: Cold water rinse, Benjamin's Bay Rum (sample) ASLIn my ongoing search for a Bay Rum, I went with the Benjamin's Bay Rum today. Someone on a British forum kindly sent me four samples, to help me in my quest, and this is one of them. I like it, very light, not sweet, but I suspect it's not going to hang around for very long.

I did two passes with the Gem Junior Bar Lather Catcher Razor with a Sha-Ve-Zee Blue Back SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Aqua Velva AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Sunday 5th August Zenith 507 TS - Williams Menthol/Ice Fresh cream - Ever Ready Natural Angle, Featherweight - GEM SSC #2 - Alum - Electrif's Lemon Chill A/S - Dove Instant Hydration cream The Williams cream was a nice surprise find at a local supermarket in the resort I was staying, and at €3.50 it was rude not to get 2. It has a fair menthol hit along with an accompanying mint scent. Great performance, and the Featherweight shaved well so I'm well pleased. Many congratulations jayaruh

Outstanding Sunday shave. The F was just smooth as could be. My 30 DC brush worked great with the Clubman shave soap. Clubman AS finished up nicely.

I assume it's European, possibly Spanish. Ready to be corrected.

Pre: Cold water face wash, Brush: SOC Boar Soap: Soapy Science Hanalei Razor: Cobra Classic Blade: Schick Proline P Post: Cold water rinse, Alcolado GlacialMy first go with a Soapy Science soap, and it's pretty good stuff. It's very slick, a bit light on cushion but I find the slickness compensates for this and the Cobra agreed. The scent isn't great but it's mild enough to live with. All in all not a bad soap. Happy Shaving one and all.
