10/16/2019. 1965 slim adjustable w/ 7 o'clock yellow. MdC citrus. Epsilon blue. Simpson Chubby 2 2-band silvertip.

The razor is significant in that it is similar to the one that belonged to my dad that I began shaving with in 1965.

Greetings,


Another early morning shave.


Throughtout the week the lord silver star blade has paired together superbly with each razor i've matched it up with today with the frankenrazor was yet again no exception.

I can't remember the last used the Palmira Serbia shaving soap, which is very like 'Cella' but with a milder almond scent.

I've found a the soap to work brilliantly using a synthetic brush,today was no exception, i squeeze the excess water from the brush give it a quick shake then load it on to the wet soap, Starting to face lather adding 2-3 drops of water to the tips of the brush, when needed which gave me a excellent slick protective lather for the full shave leaving a good post shave feel..A very good shaving soap, which i should use more often.

Another very comfortable 3 pass + pick ups silky smooth shave with no errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a generous dollop of Nivea Men ~ Sensitive Cooling Post Shave Balm.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling devine.

Enjoy your day, ladies & gentlemen.
