Wilkinson TTO razor
Astra superior stainless blade blue
No name synthetic brush
Arko shaving soap
Nivea is balm
Bod Man Really Ripped Abs


Hot dog prep with Old Spice Fiji body wash

Coumadin clinic today. I lathered up without getting the Arko straying all over the container. Two quick passes and clean up. The Nivea soothed things and the really ripped abs finished out the citrus themed shave.

The planned E2 shave was helped along the way with the H1 (i just couldn't wait any longer to try it). I decided to use each razor on opposite sides, TBF they are both very similar in blade feel and efficiency, however, the H1 is a bit of a dark horse it feels mild although it did give me a couple of "creepers" on my throat, i also had a little trouble going ATG on my neck as my gorilla mitts kept obscuring my view, all hopefully down to my learning curve. Overall though i am very happy with this little H1 razor.
I completed 3 full passes for a fine BBS finish, the creepers stopped with the cold water splash, finishing with a nice post shave routine.
Enjoy your day all.

SOTD: 20th March 2025

Pre-shave: Warm shower
Cream: TOBS Shaving Shop Shaving Cream
Razor head: Henson AL13 (mild)
Razor handle: King C Gillette
Blade: Bic Chrome Platinum (first use)
Brush: Yaqi 24mm Synthetic
Aftershave: Old Spice Whitewater

The TOBS SSSC is one of my absolute favourites, creating a pillowy foam in next to no time. I really like the heft that the Gillette handle adds to the AL13. The Bic blade on its first outing was smooth and ultra sharp with no tugginess. I achieved a BBS shave (on two days growth) with only two passes (WTG/ATG) which highlighted a great combination of cream/razor/blade. The ultra fresh Old Spice Whitewater provided an invigorating finish. Enjoy your shaves everyone...
