Thread: Sun - March 24th - Sat March 30th

Monday morning:



Chicman Stick
Rooney Silvertip
Puma 6/8
Speick AS
Chanel Bleu EdT

Old soap with a young heart. The scent is a bit musty. Lubrication (Lubraciousness) is remarkable!
The EdT is first class mainstream. So what?

Have a nice day!

This morning's stubble mowing tools...



Pre : Hot water
Soap : Mitchells Wool fat
Brush : Progress Vulfix 404
Razor : Merkur 15C
Blade : Feather
Post : Cold water, alum block, Nivea balm

Finish : Smooth as the proverbial babys a*se.

Comments :
The MWF lather has been cracked; I now get loads of the stuff, even with hard water... all good. No pressure used with the Feather blade. The alum block wasn't working again, no sting at all. All in all, this is a setup I'm not afraid of using again.

Don't forget though, good lubricity can only be achieved with the application of copious amounts of Guinness.

So nothing! I think Chanel Bleu is a great scent!

Please do not misunderstand: I like the scent very much!
"First Class Mainstream" needs a smiley.
