Weekend SOTD March 7-8, 2015

30 Day Rule!



Another great shave on this kit!

What is a 30 Day Rule?

Happy Sunday!​

 

Thank you for your kind comments David. I'm pleased to have the razor in my collection. I use all the razors I collect

 

Well-done!

 

Semogue 1800
Proraso Red cream
Gillette Aristocrat '48
Ladas (1)
Bello Bay Rum & Lime

Trying out Ladas for the first time - smooth but not sharp enough

 

March Focus - Vintage and Carbon
March 8, 2015 - Week 2 Day 1
Prep - Hot shower and towel
Brush - Omega Pro 48
Soap - Arko
Razor - '46 Gillette Aristocrat
Blade - (1)
Post - RazoRock Alum and Proraso

Next up in March, the Aristocrat and Durasharp. Talk about smooth. The Aristocrat was my January focus razor so I know it like the back of my hand. The teflon coated carbon Durasharp was amazingly smooth and with the milder razor as compared to the New last week it was almost like not having a blade. I had to slow down a bit to get DFS in three but made it. No bite from the alum, wife loves the Proraso, all in all a good relaxing Sunday shave. Even my head shave was smooth today.

Shave for 8 March



​

 

Shave of the day

Pre- Hot shower, Bulldog Original face wash, Sandalwood bar soap

Soap/cream- Cyril R. Salter luxury shaving cream Wild Rose

Brush- Whipped dog 24mm silvertip

Razor- Gillette Slim adjustable(5)

Blade- LADAS(2)

Post- Cold water rinse, Mentholated Pinaud Clubman Original aftershave lotion and Nivea sensitive aftershave balm

A nice 2 pass shave tonight =) Felt like I needed to start off the week clean shaven.

I did find a hair that was semi ingrown, pulled it with tweezers haha. I hate those.

Cyril R. Salter Wild rose... Now a while back I fell in love with the Rose scent after using a GFT Rose cream sample I got from @Slowjoe. Me and Kerry was talking and he offered me this Cyril cream, well of course I accepted. And MAAN I'm happy I did! The scent is just amazing, @RaZorBurn123 I don't know how you dont love this scent =P It performs well too, It has hardened just a little bit so next time I need to consider that, but thats no problem. It provided slick and protective lather, this brand of cream IS luxurious for real. I will try more eventually!

The LADAS blade provided a smooth and comfy shave, I usually toss them after 2 shaves but I'm gonna see if I can do a third shave with it now that I have incorporated a little cold water in my shaves =) maybe the blade can/will perform a little better?

Clubman... nuff said!

 

Which day are you on? =)
