It would appear that we have two S.O.T.D threads going on right now...

Anyway, great shave earlier. Love the performance & scent of Puro Fresco.

View attachment 20169 SOTD Saturday 13th August 2016. Good morning shaving room.
Shave kit today....Gellette fat boy 1960, setting number four, new Astra SP blade, tabac shave soap, omega boar brush, tabac EDC. Thayers witch hazel.
Normal routine of shower, fully hydrated, bloom water rubbed in to beard and whipped up a fantastic lather in my bowl. Normal three pass shave, no dramas, as smooth as I like it.
Splash of witch hazel followed by a few dabs of EDC behind my ears, back of neck.
Good shave, feeling great, all ready to go! Whishing you a fab weekend, over and out.

Praise be to Denali...!

Bit more beard growth than usual but Denali - yet again - provided a wonderful shaving experience. I'm convinced that this is (for me) the most consistently good shave cream/soap/croap of all those that I've tried.
Myrsol Blue was a very nice splash to go with it.

Everything else was pretty much the same as my last few shaves...but I also arrived at one other conclusion, and made one discovery this morning:

The other conclusion: the coal tar face wash straight after the last pass is definitely worth it.

The discovery: Cien Bodycare Aloe Vera Bath Soap (well under £1 for 4 bars at Lidl) is excellent and is probably going to become my first choice of shower soap once my remaining few bars of Musgo Real soap (at around £6 a bar!) have gone. Musgo may be a quality brand, but in practice, the Cien stuff actually seemed better. The do an unscented sensitive bar too. No brainer. (The money I save will go towards buying the more expensive Glyce soaps for pre-shave...I'm not a complete heathen:cool:)

If you like the Denali Greybeard you are going to love the OSP Menthol soap. Nice pic.
 

Saturday 13th August
Thought I'd have a later shave today due to working nights tonight
Bulldog face scrub
Proraso sensitive shaving soap
Blue beard synthetic brush
Derby blade
Blue beard shavette
Lucky tiger face tonic
And a splash of pinaud vanilla clubman
Nice smooth clean shave, really chuffed with the shavette, I know people aren't particularly fond of them but I haven't had a drama with it in all honesty.
Hopefully if funding allows, upgrade to feather artist ss at the end of the month.
Have a good weekend folks,
of to take the little one to the park before work tonight.
