Shaving recipe for today.


Prep: Warm shower:/ Nivea Men Power Fresh Shower Gel.


Pre:

Cold wet flannel to my face.


Pears ~ Transparent Soap.


Brush: Omega 49 Pro.


Mug Lather.


Cream: The body Shop ~ maca root shaving cream.


Blade: Personna ~ Comfort Coated Lab Blue .(2)


Razor: Muhle R89.


Post:

Cold Water Face Rinse./Homemade Lavender + Tea Tree Oil Witch Hazel Mixture./ Giorgio Beverly Hills ~ Ocean Dream ASL.


Wilko ~ Men's Moisturiser.


Greetings,


A relaxing sunday shave.I've mentioned before if i had to have only one DE Razor the Muhle R89 would be a very strong contender up until recently when i added the Parker 55SL Semi-Slant razor, which has now took over from my beloved Muhle R89...However, i will always have a soft spot for the Muhle R89 & merkur 34C as both razors helped me to develop my technique and gain my shaving confidence, for that reason alone i will never part with either razor.

It's been a while since i last used the body shop maca root shaving cream,which i've had mine for well over two year now, but it's still perfectly ok to use,it's slightly dis-coloured but hasn't have any adverse affect on the lather or made my face look like a baboon's arse when shaving with it, once i've finally run out of this tub i'll buy another one of the newer version.

A very comfortable 3 pass + pick ups bbs enjoyable shave.

Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of Wilko ~ Men's Moisturiser.

My face is feeling smooth & smelling devine.;)

Enjoy your Sunday Ladies & Gentlemen.:cool:
