SOTD May 1, 2017 Blade: Feather Pro Razor: RazoRock Black Hawk Brush: Artisan badger Lather: Stirling Iced Pineapple Post: Witch hazel, Stirling Iced Pineapple aftershave WTG, touch-up Enjoyable shave with Stirling Iced Pineapple. Bright, crisp scent and a little menthol touch. The menthol in this seemed pretty light to me. I enjoyed the performance as usual and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. Good way to start the work week. Have a great day!
Menthol Monday Hot water wash with a washcloth Semouge SOC Bombed Gillette Crema de Barba Stahly head maggards MR5 handle Persona Crystal (4) Omega Alum Gillette aftershave gel Today i got a very nice shave. My lather wasn't very foamy (pun intended), but it was cool and very functional. I felt like i was smearing more than building. The stahly always amazes me, it feels like it's doing nothing, but I end with a terrific shave, today's no exception. Finished with alum and Gillette gel. The smell is a familiar aroma, clean and fresh. Sorta reminds me of Shaving before I knew of better ways. I'm nicely shaved, ready for today. Hope y'all did as well, or better.
Razor - DaveOcean33 "Atlas" Blade - Voskhod Teflon Coated Shave Brush - Gentleman's Hangar Synthetic Shave Brush Shave Soap - Mama Bear's "Bounty" Aftershave - Country Club for Men "1837" Post Shave Balm - Retseliney Hyaluronic Acid Face Serum Deodorant - Organic Essence "Lemon Tea-Tree Mint" Fragrance - Creed Royal Water Not using the pre-shave oil today. Will live dangerously with the Mama Bear Soap because I'm only doing 1 pass then a simple touch up.
