ToBS Shaving Cream & Aftershave - Sandalwood
Ever Ready 100 restored with synthetic flat top
Gillette Old Type
Gillette Nacet
Thayer's Witch Hazel
Today felt like a nostalgic shave day. Been thinking about 'Pops', my grandfather, and this setup absolutely reminds me of the bathroom aroma on Sunday mornings. Most other day's it was a lavender or other 'fresh' scent from my grandmother's potpourri dish.
The Gillette Old Type and ER 100 is from the 2020 TSD traveling box.
@MrEE's replating work on the OT, not sure who restored the brush (my bad, forgot to ask).
Great everything....awesome lather, fun shave. Love the OT design, works very nice in the toughest part of my shaving area, the under nostril shadows/contours. I am lucky with thick stumps of growth in that area, right up to the transition between flat face and nose outlines. Open edges or safeties (with small cap designs) work the best to get after the pesky strays. 2 passes with a neck clean up swath, and BBS- results with one skin blemish weeper on the lower neck. Quick application of Thayer's WH followed by the matching ToBS Sandalwood AS....and ready for a day.
Still crazy busy....following along, hitting the like button on SOTD posts, commenting as much I can. A very sincere THANKS for all the comments on my daily start up routines!
Have a great Tuesday everyone!
