    SOTD : 19th January 2021.

    Shaving recipe for today.

    Prep: Warm shower:/ Original Source Tingly Mint & Tea Tree Shower Gel.
    Pre:
    Cold wet flannel to my face.
    Pears ~ Lemon Flower Transparent Bar Soap + Nuage Menthol shaving Oil.
    Brush: Omega 11047 Mixed Midget.
    Face Lather.
    Lather : Hampshire Wool Fat Lanolin Shaving Soap.
    Blade: Derby Usta. (3)
    Razor: Kanzy K100.

    Post:
    Cold Water Face Rinse./Homemade (~Winter mix~) Lavender + Tea Tree Oil Witch Hazel Mixture./ L'0REAL ~ Barber Club Reinforcing ASB.

    Greetings,

    The kanzy k100 is another comfortable razor to shave with a good balanced weight...What i really like about, it is the closed 'tech type head' which holds the blade rigidly with no blade over-hang a great design feature reducing the risk of catching my ear lobes or under my nose when shaving.

    Another enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report...Finishing to the shave off with a small dollop of L'0REAL ~ Barber Club Reinforcing ASB.

    My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.;)

    Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

    Your pics look the same, Matt: it's the artist's style!

    Some words might be archaic for some language and maight not for others.
    In italian is not very common as well, but it sounds more involving than 'foggy' to my ears.

    And should we quitr using 'archaic' things, we should give up Van Goch paintings, Bach music and Canova sculptures!
    Not to mention vintage (archaic?) razors, brushes, etc.
    Should we?

    And, most of all... who decides we must replace a word with a newer one?
    I love continuity: I have 40 y.o. shoes: should I throw them away? They were made by an artist!

    Thank you, by the way!

    When I entered the bathroom it was dark outside and I couldn't see the magnificent fog that isolated the megalopolis where I live: I didn't know what soap to choose so I chose first the razor pairing it with the blade which I allowed one last shave to.

    And as I grabbed the tools, I realized what I wanted. a soap that I think is expensive, but deserves every penny. And which, by the way, is the only one that, to date, I have finished!

    A great start to the day!

    Cold Water Rinse
    Tabac Shave Soap
    Jayaruh 30RS
    King Cobra
    Feather AC Blade
    CWR
    Tabac ASB

    The Tabac Shave Soap was applied with the Jayaruh 30RS silver tip brush. One pass and touch ups with the King Cobra with a Feather AC Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
