June 27, 2023 Feather AS-D2 Feather PAA Shaverite 210 with Mix Knot MdC Fougère Myrsol Agua Balsamica Another great shave with the MdC. I am down to around 30 grams before this one is done and dusted.
Day 10 Yes, the donut hole is mos def noticeable now. Switched to the awesome Karve. The D plate is just about perfection. I feel quite overloaded on Brut...my chest is getting hairier by the moment.
Good job, Charlie. Your journey is encouraging. Regarding Alt Innsbruck... The last two bottles I have had, began to separate. Some weird globules, like oil and water. Had to bin them. Weird, because I used Alt Innsbruck for about ten years without an issue.

Thank you Joseph. I finished up a tub of the original MdC. I prefer the Original and Vetiver. I still have a tub of the Vetiver and Lemon to finish. After they are finished, I will repurchase the Original and Vetiver. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Yes. The first is hard, and not that good. So I use others in superlathering. And the second is almost done ...
Wednesday, June 28 AoS Rose Absolute~~Simpson Emperor 3~~Leresche #51/Polsilver~~C.O. Bigelow No. 032 Day Eight Making steady progress with this cream. Popped a NOS Polisher blade into the French Leresche #51 This razor has some teeth. Bit me on the left cheek. Didn't even feel it. Sticking with Bay Rum. Today is a lovely juice from C.O. Bigelow. Atypical Bay Rum. Nice juice.
Day 11 I’d guess 10-12 shaves left, so about 1/2 way through this 3017. The CL juice is probably less than that.
June 28, 2023 Tatara Masamune Feather Tatara Semouge MdC Fougère Myrsol Agua Balsamica June 29, 2023 Feather AS-D2 Feather PAA Shaverite 210 with Mix Knot MdC Fougère Myrsol Agua Balsamica I got so tied up with work that I didn't post yesterday. Thus the double post this morning. I am really getting some consistently great shaves each morning.
Thursday, June 29 AoS Rose Absolute~~Simpson LE 57 "The Douglas"~~Feather AS-D2/Polsilver~~West Indies Bay Rum Day Nine This brush is a rarity. I do believe there were only 30 manufactured. Please, anyone with more knowledge, correct me. It was a collaboration between TSN and Mark at Simpson. Love it. The flow through is much different than today's tightly bound knots. That should not be construed as a skimpy knot... au contraire mon frère... Translation available upon request, 1€/letter; 5 for 3€ I had the hankering for a Clubman aftershave product, but after scouring my considerable shave den I came up empty. Maybe Charlie knows where I stashed them?
Day 12&13 Didn’t have time for a pic yesterday. A few more good shaves for sure. This PAA soap is a quality lather, no question. I’m about to drive with some work colleagues for a meeting an hour away…sure hope they like Brut.
