Giles Shaving Co Bowl
Gillette 'Fat Boy' E 1 Razor with a Treet Durasharp blade
Alum Block and Rinse
Lacura Facial Moisturiser
Murray & Lanman Florida Water

The final razor of my rediscovery on Friday Night. It's in pretty good shape and performed well. The EO additions today were too subtle to remove the underlying scent of regular Palmolive....but it was worth a try.

3 passes for a really nice BBS shave on the one of the best Mondays of the month....I didn't have to go in to work

Happy Monday everyone!​

 

What a fantastic BBS shave which I enjoyed so much. The Glacial Wintergreen trio was so good to me! (in such a frigid way, not to mention the Arctique!)

Have a great week!

Pre: Warm water face wash
Brush: Semogue 2000 Boar
Soap: Le Pere Lucien
Razor: Blackland Sabre
Blade: Gem Blue Star
Post: Warm then cold water rinse, Floid Black AS

The Sabre is very smooth, though a tad too mild for my tastes to be a daily driver, but it feels great in the hand and is incredibly nimble.
All told a very nice start to the week.

 

Keep trying, I found the MMIC very difficult to work with.

Another shave with my Fat Handle Tech. I'd forgotten how easy this razor is. So close and comfortable yesterday, I hardly had any stubble to work in this morning. Another BBS this morning.
