    Sunday:
    hot shower w/Mistral Marzipan bar soap
    Homemade PSO
    Gillette Contract Tech 2+ passes
    SuperMax SP Tiger (4)
    Portus Cale Citrus Cedar & Amber soap
    Omega boar
    Thayers unscented w/aloe
    Stampede cologne

    Early shave this morning and a late post. Had a couple decent shaves over the past week that I didn't have time to post and I almost didn't get to this one. Predictably mild with the Tech even with a SuperMax Tiger. Good soaps, shower and shave both, and just a light spritz of good cologne made for a good morning.

    Edwin Jagger DE89L razor
    with Astra S.P. blade (2),
    Edwin Jagger XL Synthetic Silvertip Fiber brush,
    Lather-up with CRSW Vevitier Moderne ,
    finish with water, Witch Hazel
    and Gillette Cool Wave for a DFS!

    My new Edwin Jagger synthetic brush again amazes on my second day of using it. The lather is incredible and produces fast. I've only used boar so this is an amazing change. The soft bristles are soft as clouds. Aces!

    I wish I would have seen this earlier or that you would have reached out to me, we could have worked something out! We will probably organize another Olive Wood group buy after this one is complete as long as everyone is happy with how this turns out.

    Also keep looking for those mugs. I found one today with what appears to be brand new soap in it at a local junk store.

    Beautiful!

    Thank you. I would add, not just a Mastro Livi razor, a Mastro Livi CarboInox Snake Razor!

    Mastro Livi CarboInox, 6/8 Full Hollow, Barber's Notch

    The more I use Mastro Livi CarboInox razors, the more I love them. Stunning razors to see, excellent shavers to use. This fascinating combination of blue carbon damascus and bronzed stainless steel is absolutely incredible to see. This particular razor has another beautiful thing to look at: scales. They are made from a beautiful bi-colored cocobolo wood, recalling - like to say - the bi-colored look of the blade. A superb shave with the super hot flame of Pinaud Club Classic, with its lovely and "old fashioned" smell, delivered a truly satisfactory shave.​
