S.O.T.D. Saturday 15th October to Friday 21st October 2016

An exceptional shave this morning. I'm almost considering getting a backup for the now discontinued Vision as it's that good

Omega 11126
P & B Spitfire
Ever Ready Natural Angle [ HFT ]
Gem PTFE [ 2 ]
Myrsol Antesol A/S Lotion

Finally got the moisture content right on a brush , so that it worked with this soap. The Razor as usual provided a smooth and comfortable shave ,with the rich lather enabling me to do those final polishing strokes needed to get that all round close finish.

Thursday 20th October 2016
Prep: Shower
Razor: GEM Junior (Bar)
Blade: GEM Stainless Coated
Brush: L'Occitane Plisson
Soap: Valobra Stick
Aftershave: Astral Cream (soft)
EDP: Miller Harris Terre D' Iris

Whilst this is only my third or fourth shave with the Valobra stick I really like it, whilst in my hard water it is not the biggest lather producer it is wonderfully slick and leaves the skin feeling really good. A slight downside that does not amount to much is that in my hard water the large amount of tallow in the soap leaves a thick layer of scum in my sink.

Regards
Dick.
