    Post:
    Cold water face wash with brush squeezing's, Cold Water Face Rinse./Alum Rub./Cold Water Rinse/Homemade (~Autumn/Winter mix~) peppermint lavender, eucalyptus, + Tea Tree essential Oils Mixed Together With 200ml of Care+Witch Hazel. /Yelken Turkish Lemon Eau De Cologne./ Cien Aloe Vera Body Lotion.

    Greetings,

    It's also been a while since i last added the the Eco Warrior shaving bar to my soap rotation which performed wonderfully producing a slick protective lather in a short space of time.

    The soap has a pleasant scent, a good texture it's protective, slick and most importantly the lather doesn't dissipate or dry out on the face in between each pass, leaving an impressive post shave feel.
    An enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Cien Aloe Vera Body Lotion.

    My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine. ;)

    Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen. :cool:

    Today's shave similar to yesterdays in result, but a slight change in arsenal, as I brought out the Jayaruh #59 brush. One cut, but it was painless(you know me, it just "showed up"). It happened just above the jawline on the right side. Elsewhere, all went real well again. I am at a point where I can get the same razor to do 4 passes(2 shaves). Oh, another place I missed was the right side of North Porcupine Alley(just over the upper lip). I'll get that tomorrow with a fresh razor. Stephan Bay Rum A.S. to close. Most Excellent.

    The soap was the Proraso White which is not triple milled. Probably just an odd occurrence.

    Monday’s shave in the Southern den. I did not have any issues with the lather this morning. The boar brush whipped up a nice thick and slick soap lathers. The usual three pass shave left my face feeling divine.

    “First” Razor Shave - DE - Merkur 37c

    Rating: 5 / 5

    Razor: Merkur 37c Slant
    Blade: Shark Platinum
    Brush: Dogwood Handcrafts 26 mm Tuxedo
    Lather: Lakewood Soap Company Prairie Song
    Aftershave: Floid Genuine Vigoroso
    Lakewood Soap Company Prairie Song Balm
    Additional Care:
    Omega Alum
    Dickenson’s Original Witch Hazel

    Tuesday morning shave, back in the Northern Den. I am continuing with the alternating days of the Prarie Song (1508.4 Project). I hope to have it meet the Edmund Fitzgerald by the end of the month. That may be a stretch since I have 33 grams of the puck remaining. I usually use a small almond size scoop of the soap, between 1 and 1.5 grams for each shave. My goal is to bin 4 tubs of soap and a few samples discs in 2023.

    The Merkur 37c easily mowed down this morning’s growth. The Dogwood brush whipped up a nice lather to assist in an excellent shave.

    Hope you all have a great day gentlemen.
