Monday: 1965 Gillette Slim Adjustable @ 5 / Crown Stainless Red Stripe blade / VDH boar brush / Arko Shave Stick / TWH / Old Spice after shave

The Crown blade did ok, had to work hard to get a good shave and had some irritation. Don't think it will be a favorite.

 

The metal bowl is Almond Lime scream. (conk almond, kmf unscented and lime EO.)

Monday 12/8 . . .

• [*]Prep: Rite Aid Skin Cleansing Cream & Hot Towel
  [*]Brush: Knotty Badger refurbished Ever Ready 300 Silvertip
  [*]Cream: SCS Oakmoss & Lavendula
  [*]Razor: '30's Gillette NEW with Ball End Handle
  [*]Blade: Polsilver Stainless (shave 14)
  [*]Oil Pass: Leisureguy's Last-Pass Shave Oil
  [*]A/S: Thayer's Lavender Witch Hazel Toner & Nivea Sensitive ASB
  [*]EDT: TSD Signature Scent
  
  [*]Result: Wonderful BBS shave again today. No blood and the Polsilver has ended its second week of use. Must say I had my doubts about that blade today. Seemed the beard reduction was not really good for first two passes. As I did the ATG and Oil Pass things came around and BBS resulted. No pulling or tugging yet. Love that TSD Signature Scent, sticks with me almost all day.
