SOTD: 4th September 2018.

Shaving recipe for today.


Prep: Warm shower:/ L'OREAL~ Hydra Sensitive Birch Sap Shower Gel.

Pre:

warm wet flannel to my face.

Pears ~ Transparent Mint Extracts Glycerin Soap.

Brush: Semogue 1438.

Bowl Lather.

Soap : Arko & Palmolive shave sticks mixed. (Grated)

Blade: Perma-Sharp Super.(3)

Razor: Parker 87R .

Warm wet flannel/ cold wet flannel to rinse my face.

Post:

Cold Water Face Rinse./ Homemade Lime, Lemon+Peppermint Oil & Menthol Crystals Witch Hazel Mixture./ Arko ~ Comfort Cologne.


Arko ~ Comfort A/S Balm.


Greetings,

A maiden shave with the Arko/Palmolive shave stick hybrid soap brought to my attention by a fellow member of TSR (UK) forum, after his post in the 'What Soap did you use last' I have to say both the Arko & Palmolive shave sticks are both firm favourites of mine and it's never accured to me to try mixing both of these fine soaps together, the result by doing so is absolutely fantastic, a wonderful slick protective lather.& a superb post shave feeling to my face...This is a perfect in-expensive combo soap if your on a budget, like myself..It'll provide you with a superb lather which can match some of the overly priced artisan soaps imho, 'providing both the Palmolive & Arko shave sticks are suited to your skin type'.

A very comfortable 3 pass + pick ups silky smooth shave with errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of arko ~ comfort a/s balm.

My face is feeling fresh super smooth, & smelling devine.

Enjoy your day, ladies & gentlemen.

BBS with the 1/2 persona blade

And a comfortable, carefree shave, no? Although I have not thorouhly tested this theory, almost seems impossible to do yourself an injury with this razor. Very similar look and feel of early 1900s Mark Cross razor. Both look wispy — but they can hang with the big guys.
