Friday October 4 (evening) - SE, Synthetic, Stirling September ... AKA Oops! October
Prep: Hot shower with Aleppo olive oil soap w/ 20% bay laurel oil (traditional anti-acne)
Razor: Parker Adjustable (SE) injector on setting 4 / Supply white label (made by Personna)(3)
Soap: Stirling Vanilla Bean Espresso
Brush: APShave Co w/ 24mm SynBad synthetic fan
Lather Bowl: None
Post: rinse, alum, rinse, Stirling Vanilla Bean Espresso splash
Last shave: Sunday morning - 5 days
The setup:
The setup was exactly the same as Sunday's shave, which was my last one for September and SHOULD have signalled the end of that theme.
Oh well, I will figure out my October plan next time...
Anyway, it was another great shave with this previously-hated adjustable injector. I did bump the dial up one notch to setting 4 of 5 - and found the shave was even cleaner than on 3 without any irritation.
I think I will stay with this Parker Adjustable injector for at least one more session so I can see what it is like on a "wide-open" 5....
Two clean passes, one WTG and the second XTG. After the second pass, I was cleanshaven to a DFS standard with no blood and no razorburn. Alum was silent.
I hope everyone is doing well, particularly those in areas in or near where Hurricane Helene visited!
