Monday 1/28 Razor: Schick Injector G Blade: Personna Brush: TGN synthetic in Certifyd handle Lather: KMF cool mint Post: Alum, Lucido, Unrefined Shea Butter Results: Very nice, not entirely necessary, shave.

Woo great shave. Gotta love how the clog pruf cuts down a hay field of beard. My normal 2 pass and witch hazel touch up.

Tuesday 29th January 2012 Prep: Shower Razor: Valet Autostrop Blade: GEM Stainless Coated de-spined and modified Brush: Omega 39 Boar Cream: Lea Sensitive Aftershave: RSC Balm
A good shave, the Lea creams (both the standard and the sensitive) are IMHO certainly decent enough but not in the same league as the superb Lea lanolin and glycerine sticks.
Regards Dick.

Wednesday 1/30 Razor: GEM Micromatic OC Blade: GEM Stainless Brush: Semogue 1305 boar Lather: KMF cool mint Post: Alum, Lucido, Clarins Soother Results: Mostly BBS. A bit of irritation due to less than optimal lather. The post-shave took care of most of it

Thursday 1/32 Razor: ER 1914 Blade: GEM Stainless Brush: TGN synthetic in Certifyd handle Lather: Palmolive shave stick ( remnant grated into a bowl) Post: Alum, Lucido, ALoe Vera gel, Daiso A/S balm Results: I guess all's well that ends well... Mostly BBS result, but rougher going than I'd like. It took all the post-shave stuff to cool off the sting. I'll get it right tomorrow.

I had a small amount of a Palmolive stick left in the drawer and decided to use it this morning. Very nice lather and scent! I forgot how much I liked it. I'll have to order a few more sticks soon.
