    Used the Green bottom plate today. It's supposed to be more aggressive but didn't feel a whole lot different than the Purple bottom plate. Still a comfortable easy shave and my face is happy. All the rest of the parts worked well and I'm glad for that. Now go enjoy your day folks.

    YESTERDAYS SHAVE

    Prep: shower with Ellegant Rose- Rose Cardamon bath soap
    Razor: The General
    Blade: Gillette Rubie

    Brush: RR Plissoft
    Soap: RR Al Sapone
    Post: Soap Commander Courage balm

    Have had Al Sapone in the queue for a while now and finally got around to it. While RR soaps are nothing to write home about, they are not as bad as some make it out to be IMO. I have to say this soap lathered faster than any other in the hard water at my GF house. Scent is on the light side and may end up getting rid of this one since i prefer Tuscan Oud, but the shave was pretty good. Finished off with Courage balm that was smooth and refreshing.



    SHAVE OF THE DAY
    20181025_132259.jpg

    Prep: Musgo Real Oakmoss
    Razor: Wilkinson Sword Classic
    Blade: Pol- Silver
    Brush: Razorock BC Plissoft
    Soap: OZ Shaving- Jack Pumpkin Head
    Post: DIY Salve

    First shave with OZ Shaving soaps and things went pretty well. The scent of JPH is similar to other pumpkin/spice scents, but i believe it is the beer that makes it a tad unique. There was no burning sensation which can sometimes be a issue with these kind of scents. Took a little while to get the lather the right consistancy, but no big deal. did get a few weepers on my neck but was a decent shave other than that. Hope everyone had a great shave!
