Hello fellow shavers,
I was wondering what your last shave before November is going to be. Its going to be a long time before we are going to shave our full faces again so I decided to make it somewhat special.
I bought a 1954 first flare tip Super-Speed "Z1" about 2 weeks ago and didn't use it since I liked my Gillette adjustable from 1962 so much. But I got some great tips on how to clean it and it came out beautifull. So here is the list what I used for my last full face shave before November.
Razor: 1954 first flare tip Super-Speed "Z1"
Blade: A fresh Astra SP
Pre shave: Proraso Green
Shaving soap: The Goodfella's Smile Abysso
Brush: Yaqi Synthetic 24mm
Aftershave: Floïd Suave
So what did I think of this shave? It was a DFS. Although I must say I do like my Gillette Adjustable (setting 4) more. I found the Super speed a bit too aggressive for my likings but maybe I need to get more used to it.
The shaving soap Abysso is just amazing, great scent and a lovely lather.
The Proraso green, blade and brush is something I always use so they always are good for me.
And to finish with Floïd was a nice finishing touch, It luckily didnt give me a real harsh burn.
Let me know what you guys will be using for your last full face shaves!
