Shaving recipe for today.

Cold wet flannel to my face.
Pears ~ Transparent Soap Bar.
Brush : Unbranded Turkish Boar.
Face Lather.
Frankensoap : (Grated) Arko Shave stick + Dettol Original Anti Bacterial Soap & Palmolive Classic Shave Stick.

Post:
Cold Water Face Rinse./Homemade lavender eucalyptus, +Tea Tree essential Oils Witch Hazel Mixture./Duru ~ Lemon Cologne.

Greetings,
A near Turkish themed shave to finish my shaving week off.
The Tiger Platinum blade has performed wonderfully throughout the week showing no signs of tugging or dulling with each shave.
Another smooth forgiving mid-aggression blade that i will add to my blade rotation in future shaves.
The Yaqi 'DOC' razor head on first appearance looks extremely aggressive, but looks are very deceiving sometimes it's mild, non-aggressive yet efficient.
However, as with any razor either aggressive or non-aggressive if not treated with respect or applying bad shaving technique it'll bite you for sure.
Another pleasurable 3 pass + pick ups near BBS shave with no errors to report.
Finishing to the shave off with a generous dollop of Creightons ~ Sensitive PSB.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.
Stay safe, and enjoy your Day ladies & gentlemen.

Today... news day!
In fact I received a soap with a scent of lavender and rosemary, similar to LPL, but more refined and where lavender dominates over rosemary and a very fine texture.
It's a Norwegian soap that I had never heard of before in Klæbu, a small village south of the more famous Trondheim (evidently Norwegians specialize in very fine textures) and with the so far ignored name: Brutalt Bra.

At first I thought that the second 'T' was a typo and I was puzzled by that name: what could it be combined with? With a Cruel Panties aftershave?
Then I found out it wasn't English, but Norwegian: brutally good!
And it's true!

Unlike LPL, it lathers with great ease and the delicate scent you can smell when you open the bowl, it intensifies in contact with hot water and the twirling brush.
A sleek and protective lather of a soap that in its INCI has only 4 ingredients: Potassium Stearate, Potassium Cocoate, Distilled Water and Essential Oils.

I really liked it!

And I completed the shaving with another novelty: an aftershave balm that I had only seen in passing, without going into detail.
And I'm fond of mine...

I wanted to use it immediately after shaving but, for me, a shave without alcoholic kick is
unsatisfactory.
So I just Figaroed and then I applied it again.
Also this one with one of the finest textures ever tried, without any trace of greasiness and a delicate, but firm, good lavender fragrance.

Very, very satisfying shaving.
On the fantastic final result has engraved, not a little, my natural beauty...
