I've been waiting a while to use today's Schick Type L Injector razor and the wait was worth it. I find this type of razor to be very fuss free shaving. One pass with some touch ups did the job with maybe a slight overworking on my chin. Nothing the witch hazel couldn't fix. Super.

Today's soap is a vintage Boots shaving soap. It lathered up really thickly and gave a nice protective cover for the shave. A huge thanks again to @pjgh for his kindness and generosity.

Back on boar today after a good break. This shape and style of boar is probably my favourite both in function and feel.

All in all, a lovely shave. Enjoy your day...

Aleppo soap - Shave pre wash
Jayaruh Syn No67
Vitos Super Red
Schick I1
Schick S/S Twin- Japan ( 7 )
Pitralon Classic A/S Lotion.

Another Shave with a Twin blade, in one of the Razors that I choose to use them in. Was never that keen on the type M Adjustable with one in, and much prefer an N3 or an O clone.
Again was on a winner as I got a excellent creamy lather with the Vitos,and was rewarded with a nice close finish as I did not rush the Shave.
