Wednesday, January 24 Ethos Bay Rum~~Simpson CH2 Synthetic~~Wolfman WR2/Wilkinson Chromium~~SMN Nostalgia All prepped and lathered; take the first pass, stretching the skin at the right sideburn...wow, I can't find the right angle! Forgot to insert a blade. After that, all was copasetic. Stank courtesy of Italian Monks and Race Cars.
Day 14 January 24th Gillette Single Ring Old Type w PermaSharp Omega Pro / Poculi beehive Fine Classic Thayers SV Colonia This is an easy focus. What a soap. Have a great night all!
January 25, 2024 Wolfman WR2 with Triad Ti Handle Gillette 7 O’clock Black Paladin LEA Classic Shave Soap and Aftershave Happy Friday! Very early morning shave with a very late afternoon post. I decided to stick with the Spanish theme and go with the LEA Classic shave soap. This is a soap that I really enjoy and it will only get better with regular use. Take care and have a great day.
Thursday, January 25 Ethos Bay Rum~~Rubberset 400/3~~Feather AC/Schick Proline~~Meehan Bay Rhum Foggy day in the Midwest with temperatures in the 50's. Excellent shave with the Feather/Proline. Not pictured is the Bay Rhum finish.
Day 15 January 25th Karve ‘D’ w GSB APShave Co SynBad / Poculi Fine Platinum Thayers Jeeves Tobacco Bay Leaf Another great lather…I sound like a broken record. Do I detect some movement in the soap level? I like GSBs, but honestly, about one in every 3 or 4 blades has one edge way better than the other. This is the only St Pete’s blade I experience this with. Oh well. Have a great night all.
January 26, 2024 Wolfman Bronze Guerrilla Tatra ŌKU Botiho LEA Classic Shave Soap and Aftershave Happy Friday at last. What a week indeed with another rough day ahead. I really enjoy this LEA shave soap. It has a great scent and leaves my face feeling fantastic after the final rinse. I am not sure how long this small bowl will last. I have gotten accustomed to the "fast & loose" lather method which works better with a larger diameter bowl. So don't be surprised when the LEA soaps is grated into my larger bowl. Take care and have a great day.
