Have a great day all!​

 

Favorites Friday today. I’m headed to the dentist to have a tooth pulled and a bone graft to set up an implant. So, like a man condemned to the chair getting his favorite meal, I decided I deserved a spectacular shave. As expected, all my favorites delivered

SATURDAY'S SHAVE​

Perfumed by Antoine Maisondieu


Shampoo - Paul Mitchell (Tea Tree) Lavender Mint
Bath Soap - WSP Barbershop

Razor - Edwin Jagger "Kelvin"
Blade - KAI Stainless Steel *2nd Shave
Shave Brush - Scaramouche+Fandango 22mm "Ultra-Soft" Synthetic
Razor/Brush Stand by Royal Shave
Shave Soap - Martin de Candre - L'Original
Aftershave Splash - The Shave Den Mentholated Witch Hazel (Unscented) *discontinued
Deodorant - Herban Cowboy "Unscented"
Fragrance - Tom Ford - Beau de Jour

After the great shave I had with the KAI blade in the EJ Kelvin the other day, I am going another round, but this time with some Martin de Candre shaving soap. Just the soap, no preshave needed for this wonderful lather. I'm going to smell great too with the Tom Ford lavender dandy known as Beau de Jour.

***EDIT - Another great shave with the KAI blade. It's just so 'comfortable', literally the most effortless glide through the stubble. 2-pass + clean up and a BBS result. I caused a minor re-opening of a very small cut I got 3-4 days ago with another razor. I used an alum block that brought a bit more redness to my neck and is rather deceptive in that my neck feels just fine with no irritation but has some redness anyway due to the alum. This happens sometimes randomly because my skin pretty much complains/over-reacts about the slight things.

Overall this was a great shave and I'm really enjoying the comfort of the KAI blade in the DE-89 head. I've never read about anyone pushing this combo in the past, but I want some other people to try this out. I think it works excellent as a combo.
