Fine shave this morning. Clean and clear all around. No damage. I really like the Mike's Natural soap, and will look at maybe getting another when the Unscented runs out. It's been given high marks on shaving sites. 2 healthy passes. A nice finish from the Stoylin Coniferous w/Menthol A.S. As Outstanding As It Gets.
July 12 SOTM Good afternoon. Mühle R102 Gillette 7 o’clock Super Premium DE Blade (5) MrEE Tuxedo Brush Captain's Choice 45th Parallel SS and AS Stirling Alum Block Lucky Witch Hazel Beard Growth: 3 days Three passes gave me a bloodless BBS shave. Love the CC 45th Parallel's scent. Made a nice hydrated face lather that was quite slick. I wet the face with my brush and then swirl the brush on the soap so that it becomes a nice wet preshave. Afterwards, I go back to the soap do another 80 swirls and lather my face to give my a nice thin and slick lather. This works for me so that I don't waste soap. Anyway, the alum was silent. Splashed on the witch hazel and the matching aftershave to finish. Take care.
