Greetings,

(Face & Head Shave.)

SE razor week.

A new shave set up to start the weekend....Everything in my shave set up this morning worked together excellently...Another wonderful smooth performance from the Supply V2 razor paired together with the Personna PTFE SS on it's 6th outing still felt smooth and efficient cutting through my face & head stubble with effortless ease.

Another wonderful performance from the Supply Razor.. I find the hefty weight of the razor a great bonus.

A enjoyable close comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report.

The Personna PTFE SS blades are remarkable it still felt as though it had another shave left in it, but i have respectfully put it into retirement. I find it pointless to push a blade to the extreme with the risk of causing unnecessary cuts & irritation just for the sake pushing the blade for another shave.

Finishing the shave off with a few squirts of Milton Lloyd The Man Cobalt EdT to the chest & pulse points.

My face & precious swede are feeling silky smooth & smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.
