30 Day Rule/Focus; Sept 2022

Passable shave with the Kamasori. Bay Rum on a cool morning.

 

I would say as much of a chance as I would be the starting pitcher of the NY Mets this afternoon.

 

Nice pic, gear and setup Hogie. Enjoy your day.

Shavette Shave #395

Rockwell 1/2 DE Blade (3rd use)
JR #290 Cashmere Brush
Stirling Bergamot Lavender SS
Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS
Maggard's Alum Block
Dickinson's Witch Hazel

This was a 2 pass shave that went very well
The lather was typical Stirling slick and I decided to go for a thicker, yogurty texture.
It was an errorless BBS shave. The alum feedback was very slight. Did the witch hazel application and followed with the cool Aqua Velva aftershave. I am happy with today's shave. Have a super day guys.

“Paul’s Deadline Day”

I decided to use the “Kamosori” Shavette this morning. I have not reached for this razor in a long time. My technique with the Kami, courtesy fo the custom Kami I picked up from Andrey Shpakovsky earlier this year, has improved greatly. This Shavette, albeit light in my hand, can now be easily manipulated to provide a super smooth and comfortable shave.

The Lakewood Soap which has the following scent profile pairs perfectly with the Pinaud Citrus Musk aftershave:
“A laid back blend of Bergamot, Lime, Sandalwood and Dark Patchouli.”

I am smelling great with a clean appearance and ready for whatever come my way today. Later this afternoon I will attend my son’s first ever inter-scholastic soccer game. We have beautiful weather for the game.

Hope you all have a great day gentlemen.
