... and the MMOC is my most used razor, always guaranteeing a fantastic result. I'm going to use all 5 generations of Micromatic razor over the course of this week, so I know it's going to be great. More thoughts here: https://sub.wetshaving.social/comment/930669

Something borrowed and something gifted
Razor: #GEM Contour
Blade: #Personna GEM PTFE
Brush: #Zenith B21
Lather: #StirlingSoapCo Glastonbury
Aftershave: #StirlingSoapCo VetiverThe very genereous @Semaj3000 lent me his GEM Contour (a.k.a "Swan Song") and gifted me this tub of Glastonbury. I enjoy the dank scent, and love the sheep base.
The razor needs some getting used to. It's the mildest GEM and I sometimes struggled finding the right angle.

Travel prep shave
Razor: #GEM #Micromatic Clog-Pruf Peerless
Blade: #Personna GEM PTFE
Brush: #Boti Motherlode
Lather & post: #HouseOfMammoth ShireMy last shave from home for a few days before hopping on a plane to bad weather, worse food, and Mary fucking Poppins
Explained to boss that it's impossible I travel without blades and they have to pay for checked luggage😅
Shire was delish as always, and the Peerless is fun.
Happy Reddit Blackout Day!

Peerless Firefighter ♥️
Razor: #GEM #Micromatic Peerless
Blade: #Personna GEM PTFE
Brush: #ExecutiveShavingCompany Medium Jock
Lather: #NobleOtter Firefighter
Aftershave: #BarristerAndMann SevilleI like the Peerless, it's a great GEM razor. But, really which GEM isn't?
Firefighter is delicious, and Seville works very well with it.
