Pre: Warm water face wash
Brush: WDC-8, 24mm finest
Soap: Stirling Sandalwood
Razor: ER Streamline
Blade: Gem SS
Post: Warm then cold water rinse, Stirling Sandalwood PSB

A very smooth, close shave from the Streamline, aided by the slick Stirling lather.
One of my favourite razors with one of my favourite soaps.
Simple pleasures are so often the best.
Happy Shaving one and all!

AOS Rose Absolute~~Paladin Cleo~~Feather AS-D2~~Brut Lotion
Have a great day!​

1930 Wilkinson Empire (beard), Apollo Mikron mk3 (head). A Gem blade in the Wilkie seemed a big improvement over the Feather yesterday, a milder setting may have helped as well. Very comfortable. Mikron with fresh Permasharp kills it on the head shave, the non tapered handle on the mk3 (c1955) improves handling over the Mk2.

The subject of these two products came up
among the 30 Day Crew so I took one for the team.
My opinion? It's the same soap.​

Yesterday wonderful close shave using
EverReady 49-4 / restored with a silvertip
Route 66 Cranberry Citrus
Tampa Shave Company Chrome Shorty
Astra ss
Cranberry Citrus botanical balm
The TSC chrome shorty is the most aggressive razor i have (maybe, i have never opened up my futur). Route 66 is exceptional. Very close, not real comfy.
Today
Olivewood group buy, knotted and finished by GDCarrington with a custom two band
The Shave Den iced Florida Water Type
Barbasol Floating Head Razor
Asta ss (2)
Iced atomized L &M Florida Water
Today, same close shave, and much more comfy.
Hope y'all did as well, or better.

Friday's Shave

TOST LE Synthetic
Bunny V3 Injector
Schick Proline B-20
CWR
Thayer's Lemon WH
Aqua Velva Ice Blue

I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Musgo Real Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the TOST LE Synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Bunny V3 Injector Razor using a Schick Proline B-20 blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

The Friday Planner(shave)

Well...come to think of it..same as today, but using the Stirling Pro-Handle brush instead of the Jayaruh.

​

​

MUHLE :: THE VARLET :: L&L​

Tonight's shave was with a freshly restored and honed blade. I had a smooth 2 pass shave, with near BBS results. No issues, just all over smoothness.

Razor- Joseph Elliot. Silver Steel
Brush- B400 By Tom
Soap- Arko/Sandalwood Scented
Aftershave- Florida Water

Evening single pass, the new addition Barbasol FH. More aggressive than I expected but not difficult to manage. Will have to spend some time with this one. New tub of Maca Root on the way so Coates fills in nicely.
