SOTD : 14th April 2022. Shaving recipe for today. Prep: Warm shower:/Asda Sea Salt & Fennel Extract 2 in1 Shower Gel. Pre: Cold wet flannel to my face. Chantry Lavender Goat's Milk Bar Soap. Brush: Yaqi Sagrada Familia 24mm Synthetic. Face Lather. Lather: Tabac Original Shaving soap. Blade: Chinese Gillette Super Blue. (D3) Razor: Jagen David B30.

Greetings, Early Morning Shave, Last use of the Chinese Gillette Super Blue which has performed wonderfully throughout the week. The J.D. B30 is another Chinese super-speed clone that was kindly passed on to me, another razor i haven't used much like the Baili BD177 i used in my previous SOTD ,it has a good weight & balance to it, the moving parts are all in smooth working order with no uneven blade alignment or aggression gap difference. Another great every day shaver. It's been a while since i last used the Tabac shaving soap and forgot how much a wonderful slick protective lather this classic soap creates. A enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups close shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Nivea Men Fresh Moisturising Gel. My face is feeling smooth cool, & smelling divine. Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

Thursday 04.14.22 Shave Yates 921-H Brushed Brass Fat Handle / Nacet Jayaruh #408 24mm Maggard 2-band badger Fine Snake Bite Shaving Soap & Aftershave One pass DFS. Back to the Charles River Reserve in Medfield, Mass. with Rosie.
Solid Shave I used the Supply cream and marble bowl for the first time today. The bowl feels great in my hand and helps to quickly whip up the lather. I almost always face lather, but I could get used to this. The cream made thick lather with plenty of residual slickness for touch ups. The scent is a pleasant lavender and eucalyptus.

Thursday's Shave Cold Water Rinse De Vergulde Hand Shaving Soap SlimGem 3D Printed Synthetic Schick H Hussy Personna Injector CWR Lustray Spice After Shave The De Vergulde Hand Shaving Soap lathered well with the SlimGem 3D Printed Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick H Hussy with a Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Thursday morning: Neutrogena Deep Clean Facial Wash Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Junjie/Shark day 2 Blueness Shaving Stick CutiBase Moisturizer Max Disinfecting AS Splash Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick Bleu de Chanel Parfum This cheap as dirt Junjie razor is definitely impressing and satisfying me - there’s no doubt about it that it’s very mild but it’s so efficient. This Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole is not only a gorgeous looking brush, it’s one hell of a lather maker. The Blueness stick is from Turkey, it’s got a very nice scent which is completely different from the Arko stick, it’s a pleasure to lather up with, and it’s very skin friendly. I believe it’s aimed at the younger generation in Turkey and I heard that it’s becoming very popular. The CutiBase moisturizer is unscented, and it seems to work very well as a balm, and the Max Disinfecting aftershave stings like a bugger for a second or two but then it feels so good and soothing - it’s scent is nice but it never disrupts the lovely fragrance of the Bleu de Chanel. Three passes gave me a cracking good BBS shave that I really enjoyed! Have a good day - be well and safe! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
