Leaving again for another three day trip, so I figured I’d do a quick shave tonight. My facial hair doesn’t grow at a fast rate so I did One WTG pass with the La Toja stick and face lathered. It’s been a while since I’ve used the stick but man I love how slick it is. The blade really just glides effortlessly on the skin. It was a very relaxing 15 minutes to myself to end the night.

Ice Water + Special Thayers Mix

Spread soft soap on face then work on it with the brush. Good results. Creamy and slick with nice lemony scent.
Shave with razor paired with blade was even better than yesterday's expensive razor! So very smooth...so very comfortable and efficient! BBS to DFS result. 3+1 multiple passes without any issues. Blade still sharp. Post & Aftershave was excellent. Good lather and even better razor/blade combination!
Rating 9.8/10!!

Greetings,


I have a great fondness for all my parker razors, but the Variant is my favourite for the simple reason it's gave me consistantly irritation-free silky smooth shaves with every shave i've had with it.

A superb solid performing adjustable DE razor.

Last shave of the week with the Mers SuperShave X Platinum which has performed admirably with each shave throughout the week with no dulling problems.

Another very smooth efficient DE blade that i will adding to my blade rotation in future shaves.

A pleasurable 3 pass + pick ups BBS shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of Aloe Vera Gel.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.;)

Stay safe, and enjoy your Day ladies & gentlemen.😎
