Electric Shave of the Day (ESOTD)

I must get my camera out again sometime. An excellent wet shave today again. Ok I am retired an my needs are not as they were a few years ago.....but a generic Chinese rotary with good prep and a wet shave..... gave a shave worthy of a blade.

Face wash followed by Vitos preshave cream.
SweetLF Rotary with Cella Red
Jovan Musk

A lovely result!!

Philishave HQ5401
Lubriderm 3-in-1 men's lotion
Aqua Velva blue after shave

The HQ5401 is a cord-only model given to me by my grandma for Christmas, 2002. Because of the cord, it's a little tricky shaving my head. I had to creatively manoeuvre to make it work and hunch over a bit during the shave to reach it. Good shave, though. really good. I've always loved that razor.
