The Erasmic shave is another inexpensive shaving cream that doesn't have much of a scent, but makes up for it's performance and post shave feel.

A comfortable close 2 pass + pick ups shave with no errors to report.

Aleppo soap- Shave pre wash
The Grosvenor- 404mixed
Arran Aromatics Bay Citrus
Schick Super 11
Schick Super 11 Ultrex ( 6 )
Pitralon Classic A/S Lotion

Shaved yesterday but needed a quick touch up, as Family visiting en route Home from the coast.Thought I would not resort to Cartridge Shaves again, but on a whim got hold of this Vintage Schick and some blades. Making sure that I exerted no undue pressure I was able have quite a pleasant Shave with a decent close all round finish.

You seem to have been on a bit of a bender with this Lupo lately.
Are you liking it that much, or deciding whether to part ways with it?
I hadn't used it in at least 6 month and actually just wanted to use it a few times to, as you said, decide to sell or not. I'm about to sell a few of my razors. The shaves I had with the Lupo the last week has been excellent so this razor stays:)

A Sunday straight shave with an addition today.
Yesterday the postie brought a very generous PIF'd razor from a real nice fella across the street, i had been considering the SoloEdge for a while and looked at the TSR SoloEdge thread to try to get some info, lo and behold there was a very generous offer of the Razor.

i completed a nice face lather with the OSP/Simpson combo, i completed my first pass with the Thiers WTG. I re-lathered and completed a ATG pass with the SoloEdge, from the off i found it quite mild, a little bit of angle change found my sweet spot, although still relatively mild which i don't mind at all, so far, i do prefer it over my Yaqi Katana.
I finished off the shave using the Str8 with some XTG touch up on the cheeks and neck for a very nice comfortable finish.
A nice post shave routine ending with a splash of the fantastic OSP Spice road.
I have a couple of "iffy" shaves planned for this week, therefore the Parker SHaDE will be my back-up.
Enjoy your day all.
