Looks like a nice sunny summer day. The Palmolive cream looks really cool! Wish we could get it here in the states It's a nice cream, good cushion, slick. I found it in the back of the cupboard, forgot I had it, I don't know that I've seen any in the shops here lately.

Sat 29th Dec. Cyril Salter / Maseto ED Two Band La Toja Stick Alu.Hawk & Windrose S/S Handle Schick Proline [ 8 ] La Toja A/S Lotion Todays Shave is an indication that expensive Razors/Soaps are not needed to get a good shave. Provided that Time and Care are added ingredients to what may be regarded as a Budget Shave, the resultant finish can be as good as those obtained with High End Stuff. This gifted brush is not yet broken in , but did a great job of working the soap on the face into a good Lather.

SE Sunday's ShaveCold Water Wash Proraso Sandalwood Jayaruh #217 C.V. Heljestrand Safety Razor C.V. Heljestrand Wedge CWR Aqua Velva My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Proraso Sandalwood Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #217 brush. I did two passes with the C.V. Heljestrand Safety Razor with a C.V. Heljestrand wedge 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...

I missed yesterday's glorious blade encounter....This is the ER-LC that the Fuzz-ster gifted me, handle by Jay, armed with a new Gem SS that I got from Andrew's Shave Shop in a box of 100, by way of my Christmas Stocking, thank you Mrs. 'C'.

Tonight's "The Night Before New Years Eve Shave" This was the first shave, where I got to try a regular Bb Personna rebrand (EMS) blade in this razor. Glad to find out she is not blade sensitive in the least! It appears, she's not just another lovely face...😍

Sun 30th December. Jayaruh No67 Tabac stick Alu.General with Claymore Handle Schick Proline [ 7 ] Tabac A/S Lotion Though I prefer heavier Razors, I am getting nicer Shaves with the Alu.General/Hawk now that they are paired up with S/S handles. I now find that I can now avoid the use of undue pressure on the head. Today I had another Soap Stick Shave, this time using Tabac which produces a very effective lather. A very nice Sunday Morning Shave, smooth and comfortable with an up there close all round finish.
