I had the BEST EVER shave today!

[InsecureSpike]

guy's today i had my best every DE shave,

• NO cuts!
• NO razor burn!
• NO irritation!

i've been DE shaving for around 3 months, and every shave i ended up with all 3,
but i thought i'd try something a little different this morning,
last week i purchased some, Body Shop, Maca Root Wash Off Shave Oil
which massaged well into my face & head, (after a very warm shower),
then on top of that i lathered up some Body Shop, Maca Root Shave Cream,
then used my Gillette 1940's English Rocket & a new 7' O Clock Super Platinum Blade,

WoW! never have i ever had a shave like it!!

now i just need to find a kinder blade i think,
i've just ordered a sample pack containing;

• Derby Extra Super Stainless
• LORD Super Chrome
• LORD Platinum
• SuperMax Super Stainless
• SuperMax Platinum
• Blue Bird Hi-Stainless Steel

i'm looking very forward to trying the Blue Bird, i've read lots of good things about them,

Regards

Spike

I got some Bluebirds free with some blades I bought. For me they work wonderfully.

I have to give praise to Bodyshop products, I find the shave cream and aftershave balm brilliant.

Hey, I had my best shave ever today, too! So I know how pleased you feel. It's a very satisfying feeling.

I was actually shocked at how well it went today, since I was using a 4-day-old Red Pack blade, just to see how long a blade would last me. And I hadn't shaved yesterday, so the beard was pretty heavy. Maybe subconsciously that forced me to go extra-light and super-slow on my passes. Whatever, it worked great.

And I think I'm finally dialing in the proper lather using a soap -- Tabac, natch, because after all, it's Tabac-tober.

Bravo! May this be the first of many fine shaves to come!

That's good .
A shave without a nick or irritation is always nice.

Bluebirds work great for me, you'll enjoy them too. I really like the Supermax blades too, so be sure to give them a fair try.


Congrats on the successful shave!!
