Wednesday’s Shave - A 10/10 smooth BBS!
Pre Shave - Hot water splash and Truefitt & Hill No.10 Pre Shave scrub
Brush - Edwin Jagger faux Tortoise Shell Handled synthetic shaving brush
Shaving Soap - Truefitt & Hill Sandalwood Shaving Cream
Razor - Pearl chrome finished TTO
Blade - Parker Premium Platinum on 2nd use
Post Shave - Running cold water splash along with application of alum
Aftershave - Axe Ultra Smooth Aftershave Balm
Used a new shaving cream today. Truefitt & Hill itself is a proved name on its own & I need not certify anything on my own. The Sandalwood shaving cream has a great spicy aroma loaded with a background Sandalwood fragrance that is not at all overpowering. The lather was voluminous with a small amount and very slick and gives a great post shave feel on the shaved skin.
The Parker blade on 2nd use was equally amazing as it was on first use. Very balanced sharpness and smoothness on all three passes I did today. The result is an amazingly smooth BBS that makes me feel like a target attempted and achieved. No nicks, cuts or redness on shaved skin. The alum also gave a very mild feedback and the skin was further moisturised by applying Axe ultra smooth aftershave balm that has a great lingering barbershop fragrance.
This is the shave I would love to rate 10/10.
Next shave is on Friday where I am planning to return to my trustworthy EJ DE89 paired with Gillette Silver Blue blades.
Thank you
