A wonderful shave with one of my favorite razors. A light touch and the whiskers magically disappear.

Fougere Friday
Smooth and easy shave today. The slugger made very thick and rich lather. I ran out of the matching splash, but Cavendish jelly is a pleasant stand in.

Friday's Shave


Cold Water Wash
Arko
Jayaruh #340
TNNSER
GEM Blue Star SE
CWR
Pinaud Special Reserve

My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Arko Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #340 badger brush. I did two passes with the TNNSER razor with a GEM Blue Star SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Pinaud Special Reserve AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

25 January 2019

Kicked the can this morning and went with a more traditional trim. Coate's Tea Tree lathered up in a jiffy despite its age and still has a fairly strong scent.

 

Friday’s morning enjoyment:

Neutrogena Men Facial Wash
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Goodfella/new 7 AM
Bundubeard Rooibos SS
Tabiano AS Gel
Quorum EdT

Not even my barber could have done a better job than this - that’s how BBS I am. With the new 7 AM that stubble was doomed! lol

Have a great weekend!
