1.VI.2012

Gillette SuperSpeed Flare Tip B-4 (1956)
Personna US (4)
Omega 10005
Right side face: Arko stick
Left side face: Williams Mug Soap (rubbed in like a stick)
Mennen Skin Bracer AS lotion
Arko Cool AS cream

Arko stick being softer in its consistency, the stubbles grabbed more of it
Williams being a harder soap, less can be seen in the stubbles, added water on the soap to soften it a bit more
Both lathered extremely well in the end and provided sufficient cushioning for a very comfortable shave

Skin Bracer + Arko Cool is a very nice combo, extremely refreshing with that glacial kick!

Today, a spanish products shave!

Jabonman Marsella + Vie&Long 16910 "two bands edition" + Merkur Futur at 3 with Polsilver Iridium + Myrsol Agua Balsámica with La Chinata balm



Definitely this spanish artisan soap is superb! I had a very calming, protective shave with no nicks or irritation although I used Futur razor at 3. He's still "experimenting" with some new formulas, but I think that he's already near perfection...


Finally, these spanish after shaves gave me a smooooth and hidrated skin!


Cheers!
