Friday 16th February Olive Oil Soap Vitos Pre Shave Cream Proraso Green Soap Omega 10049 Boar Brush Muhle R41 (2011) with a Treet Tez Carbon Steel Blade Alum Block and Rinse Lacura Duo-Lift Moisturiser Alcolada Glacial AS Oudh Khalifa 2020 EDP I would say the Treet Tez Blade and the R41 is not a 'Marriage made in Heaven'. The end result was achieved but the blade was not as I would have wished for in use.......not very smooth. Amazingly it passed the Alum test OK. 2 passes and a touch up for a very smooth face, but I won't repeat this combination again. Too many other choices.

SOTD February 16, 2018 Prep: Cold water and Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap Blade: Schick Razor: Schick G1 injector Brush: Omega 10049 boar Lather: Mitchell's Wool Fat Post: Witch hazel, Fine American Blend aftershave WTG, touch up The Fat! It never disappoints. Have a great day!
Damn, such a wonderful three pass shave that turned out absolutely BBS. The Glacial Spearmint soap gave me tons of frigidly-cold lather that was so rich, slick and protective. The matching balm felt cold as well as so soothing, and the Snake Bite went on almost painfully-cold, but in such a good way! Have a great day and a restful weekend!
