The "Budget" shave this week, taking into account the reccesional economic climate in the UK.

Wilkinson "Classic" Black Razor (The plastic one!) £3.79 from Boots
Boots "Cool Cologne" Lather Shave Cream £0.84
One Planet 100% natural Shave Oil £1.94 from Asda
One Planet 100% natural ASB £1.97 from Asda
Edwin Jagger Best Badger (small) £18.50 from English Shaving Co.
Derby Extra Blade

Superb shave! The Wilkinson Classic is a great little razor for the price. Well worth it as a travel razor, or for a newbie trying out a DE before spending heaps. The Boots shave cream for under a pound was a very pleasant surprise.:001_smile:001_smile

Shaving well on a budget can be achieved. Quite pleased with myself.

Software: Dave's Mystic Lime Glycerin Preshave, J M Fraser's SC, witch hazel,

Procedure: Keep stubble warm and soft with preshave, three passes + blade buffing, rinse and tone, finish with my wife's favorite. It's been a while since I used this razor and I quickly had to remember how aggressive it can be.
