The 180 ml Alexander Simpson Ultraglide Sandlewood shaving cream is the best shaving cream I have used in over 60 years of shaving. It comes to a rich, creamy lather on the brush, feels great on the skin and provides a smooth comfortable and close shave. The best available in my view and it lasts well too.

Truth be told, I bought this for a relative, so I have no personal thoughts to give. However, I am told that the gift went down a treat - exactly what was wanted! So, on that basis I reckon it deserves top marks.
What I can speak personally about is the brilliant service I received from MGS - again. Well packed, and delivered the very next day. Thank you, all!
Included in the parcel was an unexpected surprise: a 70gm puck of Cyril Salter lavender shaving soap! Now, I have quite a lot of soaps and creams to get through before I get round to this one; but get round to it I will - and then I can leave an honest review. Meanwhile, I must say that was a very kind gesture and much appreciated! Thank you, again.

This is my second of the Semogue SOC C5 brushes, the first having been the cherry wood handle example bought some time ago. Why I like them is because I find them - for my medium/large hand - ergonomically sound and comfortable to hold. Being a modern synthetic the bristles are soft but with plenty backbone. The loft may seem quite tall at 59mm but it is an excellent latherer both for swirling or using in a 'painterly' fashion. Recommended!
The good folk at MGS also deserve honourable mention for their brilliant service: I placed my order in the morning of one day and received the goods the next, well wrapped and protected in a substantial cardboard box. Thank you!

Excellent all round, many thanks

Muhle Closed Comb Black Safety Razor R106

Anyone familiar with Parker razors will know that, in general, they tend to be more on the aggressive side. The 78R is an exception. This is a mild/medium razor with barely any blade feel which, for a daily shaver (especially with sensitive skin) is a joy to use! Paired with a sharp blade (aren't they all??), (e.g. I used a Nacet blade, but, as always, YMMV) and a good-quality soap or cream, a smooth, comfortable, irritation-free shave is pretty much in the bag. Maybe not quite as ''autopilot'' as the Parker Aeroshave razor, but very close. For me, this razor is a 'keeper', and I'm so glad I bought it. If I had a 'gripe' it would be about the long, skinny handle; but when I consider all the positive things about this razor, the handle is hardly worth a mention. In any case, because it uses the standard M5 thread, it could always be swapped out for a different handle.
Many thanks, as usual, go to the good folk at MGS who, despite my ordering after the 3.00pm deadline, managed to get my well-wrapped parcel into the post for delivery the day after. Brilliant! Thank you!

For sure a mild razor - but that's what I like. For a daily shaver with sensitive skin this razor is pretty ideal. Paired with a decent blade (I used a Nacet blade, but others would be just as good), and a quality shaving soap or cream this is one of those 'autopilot' razors that doesn't demand 100% attention for every second of the shave; and being lightweight allows you to factor in your own level of pressure that is comfortable for you. It's nimble and manoeuvrable and getting those whiskers under the nose is a doddle. I don't chase BBS but the Aeroshave provides me with a DFS+ shave that lasts the day; and that I'm more than happy with.
With a blade gap of .59mm and a small amount of blade exposure this is definitely NOT a razor for mowing down several days' growth of beard, and nor should it be expected to; but if you shave on a daily basis - and have sensitive skin to boot - the Aeroshave is worth serious consideration. Horses for courses, and all that.
Service from the gentlefolk at MGS is excellent. I ordered this razor (along with another item) after the 3.00pm cut-off time and yet it still arrived, well packed and in good order, the following day! Thank you!

Many folks start their wet shaving addiction with the gateway drug that is the Merkur 34C. Now it’s back in satin finish stainless steel in a presentation box with a leather travel case. It’s also a little more efficient but not aggressive and the blade is now completely covered by the top cap. A genuine upgrade.

Case is good, does what is expected of it

Love the stand, looks good with the razor.

Super easy to use, ideal for new DE razor users, great quality, SO much better than multi blade cartridge razors, and much more economical. Highly recommended.

Seen the Henson AL13 reviewed quite a few times on YouTube and I thought I'd give it a try.Ive been shaving with a Rockwell T2 which is a excellent razor,but the AL13 is in a different league,lightweight easy to use,not got to worry about finding the correct angle to shave,the Henson does it for you,basically if you don't get the angle right,it won't shave...
Must add, first class service from Male grooming,Thank-you....

Does what it says, works for after shaving and for deodorant

Excellent just what I required. Male grooming great all round, many thanks
