SHAVE OF THE DAY Prep: RazoRock Mister Joe Razor: Gillette Redtip Blade: Gillette Black (2nd shave) Brush: Maggard 24mm synthetic Soap: Dr. Jon's Krampus Post: SC Resolution Balm Had one of the best shaves in my life this evening. The scent of Krampus is amazing and will be staying in the den, it has a strong great cider scent with a touch of anise, fear, and many other notes. Cider being the dominant note, it is a perfect scent for this time of year. This is one of the new Dr. Jon's harder formula which is a big improvement from the previous. Hats off to them for being able to take a good soap and make it even better. some of these scents are works of art that remind me a bit of B&M quality perfuming artistry. Anyways, got a dolphin smooth BBS and was such a smooth shave that it put a instant smile on my face. The Gillette Black worked beautifully in the Redtip. Finished off with Resolution since it is the scent has cranberries which paired nicly with the cider in Krampus. Hope everyone had similar results!
PM tub shave: *Clix EZ Flo with bakelite or plastic base plate & handle *new Big Ben *Chiseled Face Pine Tar 3 pass BBS. A bit less aggressive than my usual all-metal Clix/NEW bar handle setup, but the very light weight makes it a heckuva lot of fun to drive. Got the feeling I should pair it with a sharper blade to see what's what. *Lucky Tiger tonic
