    Razor: Gillette Aristocrat
    Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (1)
    Brush: Three Amigos w/ Envy White
    Soap: 4M3TP cream
    Aftershave: Floid Blue
    Bowl: Timeless

    The Supply Single Edge 2.0, Classic performed so well in November I used it all month. The weight, length, and balance of this razor makes it a joy to shave with. Thank you (@wristwatchb) Charlie for this amazing PIF. Todays shave was also a great moment in shaving history. I have no idea why I said that. It was a great shave.

    I love that brush, but, with hand as big as mine, the X3 fits better.

    For once they've got it right!
    At a quarter to six it was snowing and it's continuing; it doesn't stick, it's white watercolor…

    As far as the institutional reason why I am writing, this morning I loaded little: the soap created a sliding lather, even if not full-bodied, but more than enough.

    Three passes @1, @2 and @3: the feeling is as I shaved ATG!.
    The razor is exceptional: not even a nick!

    Wednesday morning:

    Hot shower with Bundubeard Sandalwood Bath Soap
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Minora day 4
    RVT Roseline SS
    Intesa AS Gel
    Bleu de Chanel AS Splash
    Bleu de Chanel EdP

    The hot shower really did a great job of softening up my beard stubble and I enjoyed the beautiful scent of Jaco’s Sandalwood bath soap which makes my skin feel like it’s born again. Mo’s Roseline shave soap has the nicest rosy scent I ever experienced - it’s very close to the Williams stick indeed but somewhat less rosy and more manly, the lather is such a pleasure to work up, it has great slickness as well as lots of cushion to it, and it leaves a very comfortable postshave feeling. The Intesa gel has a mild cooling sensation and it’s so soothing. The Bleu de Chanel aftershave and eau de parfum smell so gorgeous - even the wife loves that fragrance on me. No complaints about this shave whatsoever - it turned out so BBS!

    Be well and safe!
