    Soap: Proraso Sensitive White Tub
    Razor: Gillette Slim

    Proraso White Tub today. 20 seconds to load the Knotsinyourhead/Whipped Dog Silvertip brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Vintage Schick Plus Platinum still in the Gillette Slim. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Stirling Sandpiper aftershave.

    My SOTD for Wednesday:

    L'Oreal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Astra day 3
    Ingram SC
    Krampert's Frostbite AS Splash
    Oscar Pour Lui EdT

    This is the Egyptian version of Ingram and it's got the same nice, minty/menthol scent, same great lather and skincare as the British version, but it's got a stronger cooling sensation. The Krampert's Frostbite felt so icy cold after such a nice shave. BBS in three easy passes!

    Enjoy your shaves and have a super day!

    Razor: SMX 3 (2)
    Pre Shave: DIY
    Brush: VDH Badger
    Lather: Proraso Green
    AS: Mennen "afta" AS
    Newspaper Date: Feb. 2, 1944

    I guess I`ll have to can the can(foamy). With Proraso the razor was a different animal. A 2 pass shave, WTG/ATG with a small amount of "touch up" and I have a dream shave, smooth, clean and close. No little red dots on my Kleenex. A cold water rinse and enough "afta" to do me all day. My 5 O`clock. came around about 4-5 yesterday, we`ll see about today. At any rate, I won`t buy anymore Super Max Carts. A high quality shave this morning withstanding. God Bless to all.

    Bic Chrome Platinum Blade
    Frank Shaving Boar Brush
    Tabac Shave Soap
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Tabac After Shave

    Been so long since I last shaved, I was thinking of using a new blade. The blade's been used a few times, but went with it anyway. Two passes with a hint of touch up for an excellent BBS shave.
