And very nice it was too.
Its always hard to choose one of the special razors i have, i am really glad the MM got an outing today, sublime, close and comfortable.
Finishing off with the Barts Balm Lime lotion and balm then a good splash of Vintage 4711, it seems this 4711 has a bit more Alcohol in it than the present version.
All good.
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.

39th Birthday Shave.

Brush - Yaqi Sagrada Tuxedo 24mm
Soap - Palmolive Stick
Razor - Gillette Rocket
Blade - Gillette Winner Stainless (2)
Post - Superdrug Forest Fresh

It's like London buses, nothing for ages then a quick flurry of birthdays.

Like with the mighty @Tony'schin (a very happy birthday to you and thank you for your great work as a moderator here), it's my birthday here as well.

One before a serious landmark, which I may celebrate for the coming of my mid life crisis with having the hairs from my ear lobes lasered, but on second thoughts that sounds far too painful so I might buy myself a hat that hangs over my ears instead.

I was planning to assemble a shave with some of my favourite items I've gathered along the way but I couldn't really be ar*ed so I pretty much just grabbed what was in front of me, and it was a smooth and comfortable shave, but like with yesterday's shave I picked up a little weeper along the way.

Anyway gents, I hope you have a good Saturday and weekend.

All the best for a Happy Birthday Weekend, at least you are young enough to announce it. We old fogies tend to keep it quiet.

Hope you had a great day Shubs.....and lucky you.....I can barely remember my 40th or last year's come to think of it!
 
PS-Proraso
Brush-Razorock 400
Soap-Castle Forbes Lavender*
Blade-SSX
Razor-Timeless Bronze CC**
AS-Barts Sample H
AAS-Tea Tree Diluted

*I don’t usually worry too much about soaps but among a box full of all rights and also rans this is a strong favourite and a bench mark among its peers. It’s up there with the de Candre and others. The eye watering lavender blast on opening the jar never fails to impress.

**I like this razor for its weight which matched with an excellent blade does all the work for you.
