Sunday SOTN Two days of growth were no match for my Gillette British Flat Bottom New on a Weber Bulldog Handle and the sixth shave with the Cayenne blade. On fire indeed thanks to wicked slickness easily obtained face lathering with the Razorock Monster. 2+ passes - clean, refreshed, and no irritation. Excited for bed. Have a great early week everyone.

Double SOTD: With college getting more and more hectic, ive decided that double or triple SOTD posts will be better during the term, especially since i can type them out on the weekends for multiple posts at once. Shave 1: A fantastic shave with Arko, definitely a first class shave stick performance wise, whether you're a big fan of the scent or not. Fantastic stuff for sure, the omega 49 is absolutely fantastic for face lathering, and it has plenty of backbone! Razor: Wilkinson sword TTO Blade: personna lab blue (6) Brush: omega 49 Soap: Arko shave stick Aftershave balm: prep Shave 2: Every shave where i use Uncle Jon's pipe smoke turns out to be a fantastic shave, this stuff is a great performer both in terms of slickness and protection, it easily produces thick creamy lather and has a fantastic scent.

@Primotenore @Boru62 My goodness, Primotenore! It seems @churchilllafemme is in the SSSS. (Shaving Soaps Secret Service) since long: probably a consultant for the 6, SAS, CIA, Mossad, GSG9, etc. for undercover shaving operations! I knew some of the stuff, but I forgot most of all! Besides I never knew the 'Figaro' brand was the same bouncing here and there. I still have some of the Tipo Morbido 1 kg brick, and set aside the marzipan smell that never drove me crazy, it has been a wonderful performer and, for many happy years, the only one I used. Then, I joined my first shaving forum... As John says, it does have tallow in the formula and this is what makes it great, imo. I also took a TFS 1 kg brick which is not named Figaro and had a good performance. I would have never imagined the Figaro from MilMil is the grand-grand-son of the P160: it smells like an old style office/school glue: Coccoina (https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coccoina) and, imo, is not much of a soap. For the same cheap price, there are many supermarket products with better qualities (Monsavon, Proraso, etc.) (By the way... MilMil makes the best alcoholic after shave I ever used!) I enjoyed going back again on the story and, especially, finding out many things I did not know! However, I am sure if I watched things through a doughnut hole, I'd have known them myself!!
Pre: Warm water splash Brush: Thater 4125/1 ST Soap: B&M Rosemary & Peppermint Razor: Marspen Blade: Astra SP Post: Warm then cold water rinse, Aqua Velva ASL A lovely smooth Monday morning shave. The AV is definitely an ASL where less is more. Happy Shaving one and all.
