Giving this razor a test drive (new add to my wife's eco friendly site, I may have had some influence in her adding this line :) ) This is a great starter shaver for sure.
Anyway, loaded with a Feather blade this mild razor gave a terrific comfortable BBS shave. You guys that use Feathers will appreciate that I did in fact get a couple of weepers along the way.
This soap did wonders on the weepers tho, to my amazement they closed up rather quickly.
Great shave all in all.

Good shave this Wednesday afternoon.
Chilly day, but relaxing day.
In keeping with the autumn/winter scents, I chose the sugary and tasty, “Blue Samhain”.
The splash is also a cologne, so it is super strong. Way too strong for me.
So after my face and head shave, I squirt enough unscented balm into the palm of my hand to cover my face and head. Then I place a super small dab of the splash on top of the balm, mix it all together, then run all the deliciousness on my face and head.
The perfect amount of balm, and the perfect amount of scent strength.
Awesome shave. Awesome skin conditioning. Awesome scent profile.
Now it’s time to go crush the day!

Come to terms with learning that the Seville gives me irritation so I have introduced the preshave.
Turned out to be a very good decision.
No irritation, even smoother shave.
