Hey! Jack's back!
And with a classy gear!

2020-10-19, Monday

A day that started well, but that perhaps will betray me. For the moment the fog is holding and the electrician has confirmed the appointment.
However, Ali is lost in the fog. Well... you can't have everything! (And I would like to know why...)

Today I decided for a nostalgic gear, it reminds me of the 60s, when the availability of soaps and mania were more contained.
The beloved Dunhill was a must in the cold season!
The razor has a rather refined look in my eyes that was well suited to the times when objects looked more elegant and less redundant than today.
Even the brush has a pleasantly fanè look, without any print, sticker, logo: in those days everything was not signed like today. (in fact I haven't seen signed toothpicks yet, but I don't doubt that they exist!).

I notice that the brightness is increasing... well, at least the electrician will come and do the work!

Cold Water Rinse
Proraso Green Shave Soap
Olivewood Silvertip
Russian ShaDE Razor
Gillette Silver Blue
CWR
Osage Rub

The Proraso Green Shave Soap face-lathered well with Olivewood Silvertip Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Russian ShaDE Razor with a Gillette Silver Blue blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

RR Hawk V3 & Schick Proline
Zenith 26/27mm Best Badger
Grooming Dept. Tentazione
LEA Classic a/s Locion
Amouage Beloved Man Eau de Parfum

Nothing to complain about as the Hawk V3 delivered as expected. A 3 pass affair that was nearly BBS minus a spot or two near Sir Adam. It was a dandy. A great day and shaves to all...​

What a picture, Gus!

Thank you, my friend. I got lucky as the camera lens (cell phone) decided to play nice.....

And... what about all other pictures?

Shave of the Week Starting 10/19/2020

Fine Accoutrements "Worlds Finest Safety Razor"
Feather blade
Stirling Synthetic brush
Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill SS
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill A/S

Received an email from Fine stating that the WFSR was made to use Feather blades so they sent me a pack along with a travel case. Thank you very much really. And I had used the WFSR previously for 4 weeks with different blades and found it to be a very nice shaver on the mild side for me. Used a Feather today and......it's the same. Still a very nice mild shaver. Nevertheless, my face is reasonably happy. Now go enjoy your day folks
