5/22/19 10:00 PM Late night Williams Wednesday Shave
MICROMATIC GEM Blue Star Blade Vulfix # 1 Boar Brush Williams Mug Soap Generic Witch Hazel
I took a nap after dinner so I knew I wasn’t going to be able to hit the rack at the usual time. So I dawdled online for a while looking for a baton handled Treet and then decided to freshen up with a Williams shave. The MICROMATIC, my favorite razor, was excellent. The GEM Blue Star was OK; this batch just doesn’t seem as sharp and smooth as the last batch I got. Tomorrow I’m going to try some of the Treets I just got. The Williams was great, I sure hope they never stop making it. For me it is slick, cushiony, and rinses clean.

First time shaving with a micromatic. Just got it in today from twhite. Great razor , I love the blade feel with this one. I can see how you could get bloody with this one. The unholy alum stick has really been stingy with SE shaves. So I skipped it and tried clean up after the witch hazel ala wchnu. You sir are a genius. Worked great. Close shave, no major injuries.

Thur 23rd May Simpson Chubby1 /Maggards 2Band La Toja stick Ever Ready 1912- Bathroom Set Gem S/S [ 5 ] La Toja A/S Lotion This is probably the best British made 1912, as it was designed to be used with modern Gem Blades. As a result it does not make the usual 1912 chatter, but it does Shave very smoothly. With the slightly longer handle it is very manoeuvrable, and it delivers without any fuss a very nice close all round finish.

Schick G4 razor Personna blade WD Synthetic brush Fume Shave Soap w/2 drops M-Bomb Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe Daxton A/S
Adding the M-Bomb really makes the Fume great cuz I like mentholated soaps/creams. It's good on it's own but much better (to me) with the addition. My face is happy and y'all need to go enjoy your day
