Prep: Warm shower with Isseuy Myake shower gel and Bulldog face wash
Razor: 1912

Blade: Gem #3
Soap: Old Spice shaving cream
Brush: Semogue 1250 Boar
Post: Bharat Alum & Phoenix & Beau unscented Balm
Scent: L'Occitaine Cade

Yet again it has ceased to amaze me what a wonderful shave the 1912 is giving.
After a few days growth I went about a 3 pass shave with this glorious vintage without any problems. I am left BBS and have a big grin on my face. There are no signs of the Gem fading.

Perhaps I should not have been surprised how good the shaving cream is. My first time with this soap.

Another first with my newly acquired Semogue 1250. A cracking little brush with great backbone and has the ability to whip up a lovely lather.

You know you are getting a good shave when the alum gives you NO feedback :)
P&B Balm worked a treat and a couple of liberal squirts of the Cade before bedtime.
Truly awesome.

Have a lovely weekend Gentlemen.

Shave #3 with this duo, and the absolute best one so far. Dialed in the Pall Mall and it was just superb giving just the right amount of blade feel but maintaining excellent smoothness and efficiency. The Sabre was on point, smooth and cool as the other side of the pillow. Both gave me an amazing BBS shave. Finished off with the RR Acqua and the CK ONE Summer pairing beautifully. Have a great evening and shaves Gents..... :thumbsup:
