19 Jul 2023: Mid-week shave
48 hours stubble: time to try the OC slant again
6AM pre work shave
View attachment 285088
Prep = my usual
Cream = Tabac in a tube, bowl lathering
Brush = Omega Black Hi-brush synthetic
Razor = Lo Storto OC slant Fatip
Blade = Gillette Rubie (2) after some fiddling managed to align this nicely
2 Passes, each pass including WTG and XTG both ways
Minor touch ups
Post = usual clean + alum + Thayers + Proraso green Rinfrescante
Scent = Guerlain Pour Homme EdP
Satisfying result, no damage, some minor remaining turf leftover for another day…
9/10 ! not too shabby
This razor is quite manageable, not one of my favourites, still undecided if I will come back to it from time to time or find another home for it in due course.
However, I might stick with the Rubie blades for a while, binned this one after Day 2. That seems to be my sweet spot
Hope you are all having a lovely Wednesday
