2020-01-07, Tuesday

Last night, watching TV, I found out I'm a racist!
I must admit, I'd like to take two black actresses off the circulation: Angela Basset and Vanessa Williams.
I'd like to take them off the circulation and lock them up in my house!

And this morning, frustrated by the impossibility of doing so, I was, if nothing else, satisfied with a beautiful day!

Again I was after almond scent and I thought the Stirling could provide the performance I needed.

But, today, it seemed to me to open a batch of Amaretti cookies: not something to be smelled as soon as you wake up and, above all, before 16:00!

But the shaving was excellent!

Tabac Tuesday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Jayaruh #326
Russian SHaDE
Personna Half DE
CWR
Tabac ASB

My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Tabac Shave Soap face lathered well with Jayaruh #326 Brush. I did two passes and a cleanup with the Russian SHaDE razor with a Personna Half blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Tabac ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Tuesday morning:

Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Junjie/Derby day 2
Reitzer SS
Fino ASB
Booster Polar Ice AS Splash
Music: Alton McClain & Destiny “It Must Be Love”

An “el cheapo” setup but let me say it’s a fantastic one. The Reitzer from what I understand costs very little in South Africa but it outperforms a lot of expensive soaps by miles - a little blooming brings out that nice old school scent, the lather becomes so rich with great blade glide, and the skincare is so good. The Fino balm is absolutely indispensable for me at all times now, and the Polar Ice aftershave makes me smell like I just got out of a barbershop. What a brilliant BBS shave this was!
