Excellent shave this morning with the B & M Reserve Fern. It is a very fresh scent to my nose. I am continuing to get impressive performances from my boar brushes this month. Today’s choice, the Brent Jacobson Tamarind and Ebony w/ Paragon 24mm boar, easily whipped up a thick yogurt like lather with the assistance of my Fine Accoutrements bowl.
The weapon of choice, the Merkur 37c, delivered a flawless three pass shave. This razor, acquired in the mid 1990’s, was my first DE purchased since the mid 1970’s. The DE’s of my teenage years have long disappeared. Now, I wish I still had them in my collection.
I finished off this shave with the usual combination of alum, witch hazel and splash. However, today given the warm weather I treated myself to OSR between the witch hazel and the Reserved Fern aftershave. What a nice little treat for my face.
Enjoy your Friday gentlemen.
