Pre Shave: Hot shower and Neutrogena glycerin soap bar
Razor: 1966 Gillette Slim Adjustable (7)
Blade: Feather (1st)
Bowl: Arran Stone
Brush: Captain Fawcett Synthetic V
Soap: Glasgow soap co Parma Violet
Post shave: Nivea men sensitive cool post shave balm

The usual gloom of western Glasgow has returned, today and the strange burny thing in the sky is nowhere to be seen.

But the shave with this combo was extremely smooth and very enjoyable, this afternoon.
A great mix of that classic powdery parma violet scent filling the room and a razor that glided through the lather smoother than Billy D Williams in a silk cape.
finished off with Nivea cool post shave balm for instant soothing and a beautifully smooth end result.

As a quick aside, if you prefer synthetic brushes, don't sleep on Captain Fawcetts synthetic V.
especially for bowl lathering.
It's quickly became my favourite not only for the comfort of the handle but it has the perfect amount of backbone to quickly whip up a perfect lather.

Hope you all have a great week ahead!

Cold Water Face & Head Rinse./Cold water face & head wash with brush squeezing's,/Alum Rub./Cold Water Rinse./Homemade (~Spring/Summer mix~) Lemon, Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Essential Oils.5 Menthol Crystals Mixed Together With Care+ Witch Hazel/Bulldog Original Moisturiser./Brut Original ASL.

Greetings,

Early morning combined face & head shave,

A wonderful performance from the Gillette King C 3Pc. I find the Gillette King C 3Pc more comfortable to use over the Wilkinson Sword classic butterfly especially for head shaving even though overall, I also find the Gillette King C 3Pc to be more efficient to the WS classic butterfly.

Finishing to the shave off with a generous splash of Brut Original ASL.

My face & precious swede are feeling super smooth & smelling divine.😉

Stay safe 'n' warm and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.😎
