SUNDAY EVE SHAVES
Blade Vertice One Super Stainless
Razor Pearl L 55 Open Comb
Brush Pink woolf maroon base
Shave soap Hajamat Shave soap
After shave Alum Block+ Hajamat After Shave Balm.

Two pass weekly shave one down second for touch ups.

The blade is quite good in terms of Sharpness in terms of smoothness its notch below the Silvermax Blades of same company Vertice.

They sure can give tough compettion to wire cutters and de shave blades alike.I felt this better than willys.

With rain pouring heavily i enjoyed the subtle aroma of the Hajamat shave soap with a Tamil song Kanave Kanave which i loved the music although i dont understand any bit of lyrics the fragrance has gone and is bit too subtle with small white dots across the puck.
Till then Happy Sunday welcomes Monday

Another nice lather with the Ethos Unscented. Next week I intend to try the Ethos Lavender. The Aristocrat – Wizamet combo gave me a nice, BBS shave. For a smaller razor, it is heavy – something I like. Have a great day, folks.
