Extra time on the weekend means I can enjoy a slower shave. After 40 laps on the auto-stop I took the Rolls out for a spin. A bit of razor burn, but no crimson, ending in a BBS.

The Club - Tibetan Temple Kaizen 2 Soap and Splash
Speechless but I have one question.
How does this soap manage to hold a gallon of water on my face yet disappear instantly when water hits the blade to rinse?
Peter must be an alien.

WTG, ATG, Touchups = DFS
Not the biggest fan of this scent as its too earthy for my liking but the base works well with sublime lather produced by the badger knot. Shave wise this was first attempt using a Wizamet in this razor and although smooth there was significant blade feel that I have yet to experience when using this mild razor?
Not really noticing any dramatic difference to my skin since using the Hyaluronic Acid except it feels sticky but dries well and leaves head looking shiny.
Stay Safe & Happy Shaves!
Wow! What a great day out with the wife. It's only a little after 9pm and I'm fighting to stay awake and post this. LOL! So I'm gonna make it quick and go to bed.

Vintage Saturday with a stick of original Williams, Gillette Milord, antique store Boar brush, and Avon Tai Winds AS. Wonderful shave all around. Take care all.

Good lather from the soft soap. The scent really comes out during lathering. The performance was ok.
Shave with razor paired with the blade was ok too. Reasonably smooth and comfortable for 3passes except for atg on chin and lips but no nicks nor weepers for a dfs to ccs result. Time's up for the blade. Rating 9.3/10
