Hello all, here's a look at tonight's SOTD;
1930's New Deluxe Traveller.
1942 Gillette Blue Blade.
Gillette/Rubberset travel brush.
1930's Colgate Shave Stick.
Avon Mesmerize Post Shave Conditioner.
Avon Mesmerize cologne.
Well, I wanted to have a nostalgic shave using all the elements available to a wet shaver in the 1930's. The New Deluxe Traveller set had everything I needed. It did take some prep work though. I cleaned the brush with hot tap water/Dawn dish soap, but it still smelled like a combination of critter/construction adhesive, so I washed it two more times with shampoo. No matter what I did, I could not get rid of the stench. But I carried on with the shave anyway. The old Colgate Shave Stick soap did lather and I proceeded to lather up and shave. I did a two pass shave resulting in DFS. I also got three bleeders in the process. But still, it was a good shave. I was relaxed and content with the results of the shave, and that's what it's all about. Will I do it again? Probably. Here's the photo-
