SOTD Saturday 19th November to Friday 25th November 2016

Fri 25th Nov.

Vulfix 404 mixed
Vitas Red croap
Merkur Progress Adj. LH
Lab Blue [ 2 ]
Alum rub/Rinse off
Tuff Green A/S Lotion

Another run out with a DE Adjustable, chose the popular Progress which I use on a medium setting.
Todays shave was very smooth and comfortable, and being on a moderate setting was possible to get a good close all round shave without any post shave irritation. To finish off the blade will most likely
use a Fat Boy/ Slim , before making a return to SE/injectors. Am actually quite enjoying the experience of using DE Razors again.

I find it enjoyable to use defferent types of razors, although I must admit I am enjoying the injectors more these days.
 
Friday...
TOBS Sandalwood soap
Semogue 1470 boar
Face lather
Gillette Aristocrat 1946/7
Gillette Rubie #3
Thayer's and Proraso Red a/s

The last time I used the TOBS soap, it stung like hell when face lathering. I don't know if it was I because I shaved after a swim or something. No such problems today...nice and slick for the Aristocrat and Rubie combo.

Have a great day, folks.
