Greetings,

A new shave set up to start the weekend...

It's been a some time since i've used the parker variant, paired together with the gillette 7'0clock SP made a wonderful efficient duo.However,because the blades are very sharp,they may cause irritation to some users, good technique the 'no pressure rule' respect & shaving confidence is required with these DE blades.

Because i haven't shaved with the variant for some time i've used the same settings for each pass until i get re-aquainted with this wonderful sturdy efficient indian made princess.

A comfortable 'face stroking' 3 pass + pick ups bbs shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of Creightons ~ Sensitive Post Shave Balm.

My face is feeling super smooth and smelling devine.

Enjoy the start of the weekend, ladies & gentlemen.
