New Envy Shave Aluminati brush....25mm silvertip, dig it.

Interesting thing about the handle being aluminum? It stays warm during the shave. Didn't even know I needed that, but it was awesome.

Greetings,


A new shave set up to start the weekend.


I can't remember the last time i added the Astra SP blade to my DE blade rotation...I've always got great shaving results with my R41 paired up with a Astra SP..The R41 is such an efficient lady, which pairs up well with most blades i've paired her up with, i find non-aggressive blades pair well with aggressive razors and vice versa.

A enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups bbs silky smooth face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a generous dollop of The Real Shaving Co. ~ SPF15 Anti-Ageing Moisturiser.

My face & precious swede are feeling super smooth and smelling devine.;)

Enjoy the start of the weekend, ladies & gentlemen.:cool:
