Prep - Shower / Woods Of Windsor Cedar Woods soap / Pre-lather / 3 min steam
Razor - Gillette Slim Adjustable
Blade - Personna Platinum Chrome
Brush - Omega 20106
Soap - Arko / Cella / Glycerine
After - Frozen towel / Alum & WH Mix
Result - BBS

Back on track with the second round of blade trials. First time around I didn't get on with the Chromes at all. I didn't find them that sharp compared to Astras or Rapiras. They tugged my neck terribly and didn't last past two shaves.
This time there was no tugging at all. Still can't really rate them on sharpness as even after the second pass (ATG), I wasn't as clean as most blades after the first pass (WTG). We'll see how the next couple of shaves go before I make any decisions.
Also sticking with the überlather but this one wasn't great. I always found the lather with Cella on its own, to fall quite quickly after mixing and this didn't fair much better. I had to mix more up, so this particular combination is relegated to history for me.
Still, an irritation free BBS so I can't complain either.
