Pre-shave soap: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
Razor: Merkur Long Handled Progress
Blade: Gillette Super Thin
Brush: Vie-Long LE Beehive Natural Horse
Soap: Cella
A/S: Dickinson's Witch Hazel/RazoRock A/S Wax
A very fine shave this morning! The Gillette ST has been inducted into my “Favorite Blades” club, along with 5 or 6 other blades. The Cella often has rocks thrown at it because of its very faint almond scent, which tends to be covered by a tallowy, soapy, scent. Well, it’s a soap and it contains tallow, but I agree that the almond part of the scent is pretty weak. But when the blade hits the cheek, the Cella always seems to deliver for me. And I like the shiny red pot with screw lid. The RazoRock “Wax” is a very effective balm but with a scent that, to me, is somewhat weird. Oddly, I think it is starting to grow on me.
