SOS: September 2020.

fabulous..

 

Thanks, Gary!

 

Welcome back and congratulations! Hope your shave found you all healthy and happy!

 

How are you enjoying your Osage Rub, Paul? I love it as an a/s and just an all around freshener. I use my year round even in upstate NY, but do you plan on doing that?

 

Not a big fan of big knots, but this old Rubber Set just feels good. Used the Jeris as an a/s and followed it up with vintage Avon Light Musk cologne. The rich, sweet scents and the softness of this brush and the Cella made for a very comforting feeling in this shave. The Cardinal was my parents favorite "look out the window" bird.

 

Thank you. The Maple was one of the first I ever made, to be honest.

Greetings,

A wonderful shave to finish my shaving week off in style.

Last outing of the Treet black carbon blade, which has performed wonderfully throughout the week. Another smooth efficient combo with the Merkur 37c slant mowing through my stubble with effortless ease.
I've now found a de blade that pairs together superbly with all my humble slant razor collection.
My SOTD's next week i intend to carry on with the Centwin Super Platinum, another subcontinent DE blade that i have only used a few times.
Another pleasurable 3 pass + pick ups near BBS shave with no errors to report.
Finishing to the shave off with a few generous squirts of Tommy Hilfiger BOLD EdT to the pulse points.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy your Day ladies & gentlemen.
