Sunday 9 Feb 2025
Well, I am supposed to be alternating between Stirling and MWF, but today is Sunday and more time to faff with the Fat, so the Fat it is>>>

No Bowl = straight to the Face today
Razor = Gillette No 66
Blade = Personna Platinum Chrome (1) Made in Germany
Passes = 3
Post = Usual CWR, Alum, rinse, pat dry, Thayer’s Rose Petal, dry time, Nivea Balm
ASL = Imperial leather
Scent = TBS Black Musk
Score = 9+ / 10
Damage = none
MWF 0 + 0 + 1 +0.5 + 1
Sterling 1 + 1 + 1
The Fat was better today
Lightly bloomed the puck
Soaked the brush in RO water
Shook brush dry. Squeezed dry even more. Rolled it dry in the towel
To the MWF puck for enough (?, I lost count) swirls
Removed the facial prep: reapplied water to the face, straight to face with the 10049
Nice and slick, not as shiny as I would have liked so I gradually dipped the brush into the RO water and reapplied again and again. Interestingly this very small amount of extra water started to thin the lather quickly...

Again: a really good feel during and after the shave
The MWF gets a full score of 1 today because of its performance and the enjoyment factor of trying to dial it in. I do think so far it works better on the face than the bowl. Next time I want
even more loaded on to the brush.
Have a great Sunday one and all
