S.O.T.D. Sat. 21st Sept. to Frid. 27th Sept. 2013

Prep: Hot shower
Pre: Proraso preshave - sensitive
Soap: Trumpers GFT cream
Brush: MÜHLE Kosmo silvertip synthetic
Bowl: Woodhead Pedestal
Razor: Fatip + Templ8 handle
Blade: Sputnik (3)
After: Brut AS, RSC ASB

Third time using the Fatip with Templ8's custom handle. This handle has changed the way the Fatip shaves. It feels a lot easier to control which actually allows for a more comfortable experience. Although this can lead to a false sense of security as I gave myself a weeper under my nose. The handle changed it from a wee beastie to a big beastie. Result: hat trick of BBSs.
I used a GFT cream sample, great performance but scent is disappointingly subtle. I prefer the coconut.

Happy Thursday, gents.

Vintage Brut 33 Splash on Lotion

Very nice shave this morning. Found the Brut, Denim splash on, Shulton Old Spice and a couple of others languishing in a draw I hadn't been in for years a couple of weeks back. Had these during my teens, they haven't been used for a couple of decades. What comes around goes around.
