    SOTD 3/13/16
    Prep: Hot Shower/ Jack Black Turbo Wash
    Pre-Shave: Maggard Pre-Shave Oil
    Soap: RR Don Marco
    Brush: Omega Boar
    Razor/ Blade: Merkur 1906/ Voskhod (1)
    Astringent: Alum
    Post-Shave: SC Integrity Balm
    Afteshave: Captain's Choice North
    So the Caddy made it to Boston with no problems. I am now back in San Diego for spring break. This shave was very good. The Maggard Pre-Shave Oil doesn't smell very nice, but it is very protective. The Don Marco smells fantastic--orange and bergamont. The lather was good for the first pass, but dissipated quickly. Overall it was a very nice shave. The Merkur 1906 with a Voskhod blade is my daily combo that is gentle, yet efficient and just works for my skin. As requested, I'll post a pic of the Caddy too.

    TESC Pre-Shave Oil
    Arko Stick
    Jayaruh #54 synthetic (first shave)
    Schick M2 Adjustable
    Personna
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayers Rose Petal WH
    Florida Water

    Arko Stick Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my new Jayaruh #54 synthetic brush. Two passes with my Schick M2 Adjustable razor and a Personna blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with Thayers Rose Petal WH and then Florida Water After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Always a treat when you get to use things for the first time to see how they perform.

    This morning;

    Razor
    Merkur Mach 3 handle with pointy end (first time using it and it was very pleasant to use)

    Brush
    Vintage, small Maw of London brush (sure, a rather tiny brush but it sure whipped up some great lather!)
    Never used it before and was feeling guilty for having it sit around unused so gave it a good clean and put it to work.

    Mug
    Pewter mug/container that I used to soak the brush in during my shower.
    Haven't used it before but ended up work well for soaking my brush and keep the water warm.

    Soap
    Panna Crema's Vetiver that I really like

    Post-Shave
    Soap Commander Endurance ASB

    A very good shave was had
