Monday Shave
RAZOR: Shield Predator Titanium Gem Razor
BLADE: GEM Super Stainless
BRUSH: Hendrix Classics The Awesome Marble G5C
LATHER: Saponificio Varesino Desert Vetiver Shaving Soap
POST: Saponificio Varesino Desert Vetiver Artisan Aftershave
 
Monday Afternoon (after work)
  • Razor Merkur Solingen 37c HD.
  • Blade Astra Superior Platinum.
  • Pre-Shave Original cube unscented.
  • Brush B&B Synthetic Chubby.
  • Soap The Butterfly Garden Limonella (India)
  • Balm Thayers witch hazel aloe vera.
  • Aftershave Proraso Eucalyptus Menthol.
Marvellous Shave This Afternoon with the 37c I always get a good close shave with this one, with most blades I have used in it.
Considering that Its a mass produced widely available razor Its well put together and won't break the bank
you can even get a good second hand one for next to nothing.

The Limonella soap has a refresh scent you can defiantly smell the Kaffir lime witch is always zesty
and great in Southeast Asian cooking. (YUM YUM)
Cheers To You All.;)
