Aftershave Stirling Iced Pineapple Splash
Perfect soap for today's shave. Creamy, slick, and refreshing...
I've always wanted a frameback and got this vintage via Ebay. Honed it myself using cheap stones and finished on the Naniwa 12k then the Kanayama strop. Wow...was surprised by the nice smooth & comfortable edge. Was expecting the worse. A satisfactory 3 passes for a mixed dfs-ccs-sas finish without any issues. Very happy indeed!

A relaxing Sunday morning shave.

It's been a while since I've last added the Supermax classic shave cream to my shave set ups, and forgot how good this inexpensive shave cream performs, it's slick protective and doesn't dry out on my face and leaves my face feeling hydrated and smooth. I intend to use this cream more often.

A comfortable 2 pass + pick-ups silky smooth shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Wilko Men's ASB.

My face is feeling cool, smooth & smelling divine. ;)

Stay Safe and enjoy your Sunday Ladies & Gentlemen. :cool:

A third and final shave with my Karve razor loaded with a Kai blade. The blade did not feel as good as in the previous shaves and was tossed after the shave. The B&M soap made for a very slick, rich lather. The brush, although small, did a fine job. The result was a perfect BBS shave.
