Not sure, Paul. Never tried the original. I’ve heard the current English Leather is a terrible reformulation.
Oh ok. I had the MEM version, as a raffle prize here. Wasn't quite what I(and my nose)recalled from the original.
It is going to be one of those days. Power is out at the office. I guess there was an accident nearby that caused the issue. Estimated to take over an hour to repair. So much for being productive today. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Good post. 10g of soap/30 shaves? IMO, that's an unusually small amount of lather. I average 2-3g/shave. It's no wonder that you weren't always satisfied with your lather. MORE SOAP. It's cheap.
I use 2-3 g pee shave of harder soaps. With artisan soaps it can be as much as 5-6 grams per shave. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
SEptember BAUME.BE~~Simpson Duke 3~~Dovo Best~~Old Spice Lime Even with a run on the stones, this Dovo is not thrilling me. Snags a lot when going ATG. Not one of my best edges, despite what the razor says. Today's cream was a sloshy, running mess of loveliness. I put some product in my bowl and with a fairly wet Duke 3 went to town. At first I thought, I have ruined this soap, so bubbly and watery it was...but... I ket at it and it eventually cane together; the air bubbles turned into microfilm and the results were spot on. Highly recommend this cream, especially for SR shavers. Could not remove all of the 24 hour growth, resulting in a DFS- shave. God enough for government work, as they say. The Old Spice Lime woke my skin up with a nice burn. The double-splash has dried down and the lime scent in the Old Spice base is wonderful.
Wonderful report and photo Joseph. Sorry the shave was not better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
