Somehow my phone lost this mornings photo! However regardless the shave was delightful. Still on the hunt for a Future Fiction splash as it’s my favourite scent from a PAA soap, the post shave it gives is amazing.
Have a good day guys.

A bit of everything shave of the day today. Day 2 with the MdC Nature soap



the quality of the close up is not so great unfortunately



Gillette flat bottom steel plate + some kind of Tech top cap + Turkish heavy SS handle. Results in a great razor by the way ;-) Don't know if the baseplate used to have coating, now it is just steel.
Rapira Swedish Supersteel (2): a bit better than yesterday, will not become one of my favourites
Omega 10018
Martin de Candre Nature sample: lovely soap, great quality. I am still not sure if I fancy the absence of scent....
Balea Q10 ASB
Jil Sander Sun

A very nice shave today, it went a lot more smoothly than yesterdays maiden voyage.
I do like a looser lather when using the shavettes and the Signature soaps do let you hydrate them to just the right consistency for me.

Stay safe and enjoy your day all.

REUZEL-original
Beviro-Cosa Nostra sample

The razor - very good quality, mirror polish, very tight tolerance. Impossible to get blade misalignment.
OC very agresive and efficient. Important not to use pressure. DO NOT RECOMMEND FOR ATG THOU.
The angle is easy to find and maintain due to the cap desing.
CC mild and smooth.

Reuzel-fresh scent, mild citrus and sandalwood. Leaves a wet feel and the notes dissipate in 2-3 min.

Cosa Nostra- on the sweet side for a mafia member.

Aftershave: Summer Break Valedictorian

Absolutely top notch -- and also easy -- shave today (thanks to the N075, which is a mild monster). Wanted to try some of my best of the best hardware and software and it all most certainly performed.
