S.O.T.D. Saturday 25th March to Friday 31st March 2017

Wed 29th March

Vulfix 404 mixed
Vitos Red croap
Supply Se 3*
Schick "Chick " [ 5 ]
Alum Rub/Rinse off
Tuff Green A/S Lotion

I have mixed feelings about this Razor. On the most aggressive plate it shaves so smoothly, but there is little blade feel. I am finding that I get lulled into a false sense of security,and perhaps finish a shave too soon, leaving areas of my face not as closely shaven as they might be. Today was one of my more consistent Shaves.

There's a complaint most shavers wish they had: very efficient and too smooth. [emoji1][emoji1][emoji1]

-Tula 5/8
-Zenith Pro
-Stirling Port au Prince
-Stirling Orange Chill

The Port au Prince is an fantastic scent of Haitian vetiver and lemongrass. Couple that with the mutton tallow formula, and this is a complete and total home run.

Have a great Thursday everybody. [emoji1]
 
29 03 17.jpg Razor: Schick G
Blade: Schick (1)
Brush: Shavemac ATG LE The Rowl Silvertip
Soap: Route 66 Perfect Storm
Aftershave: Folsom & Co. Shambala
Bowl: Symmetrical Starry Night Dottie Bowl

The Schick G is a very nice change from my other razors. It is very easy to get a close comfortable shave without any issues. The Route 66 Perfect Storm is a very good soap and a little harder soap than some of the other Route 66 soaps, which I like. All in all a very good three pass shave with a nice aftershave.

I'm having a break from the Feather AC SS shavette as my neck need some rest because I can't keep on going while I'm still learning, because I need to look after my skin so don't worry it does take extra time to learn to master the shavette which I'm not going to give up.
