SoS: March 21, 2016 - March 27, 2016

Nice mug.

 

Thanks, the little circle on the side contains a moustache. I got it at Moonsnail, a local potter and soap maker.

 

PM me their website.

 

Do you use lathering mugs?

 

Yes, sometimes.

 

That's a really nice mug, I'm sure you'll enjoy La Toja better now!

 

Thanks Robyflexx! I love the soap, thanks again for recommending it! I just found it awkward to use the stick. I just can't tell my wife what I was using the cheese grater for!

 

It is wonderful stuff and I'm very happy you're going to fully enjoy it now.

Saved in house with my wife , calmly world do my shaving evening, hot shower and essential oils blend mine, the brush bristle Semogue 2000, becoming softer, now rotating my third stick the simple Arko, Soap Soap smells fulfills its function very well with Novodur Filarmonica, an exceptional steel that only those who have felt know that I speak, I apply Thayers Lavender and ended vigorously Floid to continue enjoying my break that good needed that. Good evening fellow ...

March into Artist Club Blades

March 25

Razor - Feather SS
Blade - (5)
Brush - BoS Omega 10066
Soap - Proraso
Post - Cold water, Alum, Nivea

Fifth and final day for the blade today. Not because of anything the blade has or hasn't done, it's just that tomorrow is D-day for the move. I don't plan to shave at all tomorrow and maybe not Sunday. Monday, we'll see. Lots to do and a short time to do it.

The blade gave me another DFS today. Maybe just a bit more problem of tugging but nothing severe. Just kind of seems to be wearing out very slowly. I think, though, I could go a couple more days so it looks like it would make a week like its counterparts from Japan, if just not as pleasantly. If the price is right on these blades I say add them to your stash if you have pain sticks. I wouldn't pick it above any of the Kai's or Feather's for a "first choice" blade, but it serves its purpose.

 

Planned Saturday SoTD


Schick type I1 razor
Chick blade
Restored vintage butterscotch brush - TGN 2 band finest fan knot
St.James Mandarin & Patchouli shaving cream
Lucky Tiger aftershave face tonic
Terre de Hermes edt

 

Friday Shower/Shave

In Shower Prep- Noxzema for face, Old Spice Classic shower gel
Cold Water Shave
Pso-Homemade mint oil
Brush- RazoRock Plissoft
Razor-Gillette Slim on 5
Blade- Astra SP (3)
Soap- Colonel Conk Lime/Kiss my Face mint
Thayers Witch Hazel
ASB- Nivea Sensitive

My first shave with the Colonel Conk, not a fan. It lathered thick in the bowl but 5 seconds on my face and it disappeared. A squirt of Kiss my Face mint saved the shave. I really like the Slim and the Plissoft brush is great. I did 3 passes with a little touch up under my chin for a BBS shave. No Veg tonight because the wife hates it so I went with the Nivea, much more comfortable and a light scent. I'm searching for a new AS now. Have a great day folks!
