A very enjoyable 2 pass shave with some touch up. i did get a small amount of indication from the alum rub which dissipated quickly.
Enjoy your day all
 
I start this week of SOTDing with yesterday's efforts on the eve of Christmas eve and a shave themed, 'The curse of the Highlander brush'

20231223_175421.jpg

The cursed razor - Occams Enoch
Cursed edge - Feather Super Professional
The Werebrush curse - Highlander LFC
Cursing and swearing - Effing MDC Fougere
Just swearing - Bloody Collegen
The smell of death curse - Hermes verte Orange
'I curse you Satan'


'Well, that is rather nice. Thankyou, thankyou'

Following yesterday's match on the BBC website in-between this, that, the other and shaving. Lather up the LFC brush, apply to face, quick glance on the Web and...fuck me Liverpool are 1-0 down! This brush is truly cursed. Does Montenegro have bearded witches?

The MDC. The 'goes on forever' soap and goes on with doing what it does best. Soaping thingies. Other than the price (but a bargain with its longevity) there is absolutely nothing I can say negative for it. The French do make nice Soaps, and exceptionally nice women worthy of soaping.

One wonderful shave and can't believe my wife later used the Enoch (Must be for her beard as can't think where else she'd use it) and loved it. Shaving cabinet beware.

It just takes me to finish with some Japanese ladies and to say 'I love you all'
