SOTD 3rd August

Lather - Stirling Arkadia + Yaqi Sagrada Familia
Razor - Gillette Super Speed Flare Tip
Blade - Dorco Titan#1
POST - Mennen Skin Bracer + L'Oréal Hydra Sensitive Birch Sap

First outing for the Dorco Titan and a very, very nice shave it was. Lather provided was excellent, very smooth and close 3 passes from blade and razor. I was slightly disappointed with The Super Speed last week using the Shark SS blade, but normal order has been restored. Really like the Skin Bracer paired with L'Oréal balm and a great post shave feel. Yes, great shave all round.
Stay safe people and enjoy your shaves.
 
Tue 4th August.

RR 400-SE Plissoft noir
Cyril Salter Solid Soap
Occams-Enoch
Schick Proline [ 1 ]
Jaguar Prestige A/S lotion

Today I chose the Occams Enoch as a follow up to using the heftier Hiram Commander. I think that the weight and design of The Enoch would suit most shavers, apart from being a bit fiddly to load. It has taken me some time to get the Shaving angle right, but now with a Proline blade find it smooth and forgiving. I enjoyed todays Shave a lot as it went very well with admirable lather that the CS soap produces.

Wow, what an amazing local farm shop you must have! You're not too far from Bradford, so I'd imagine the suppliers around there would be pretty much bombproof too, and some great meat producers as well in the locality as well. Fine choices on the Biryani and Keema Mutter, 2 of my favourite things to cook/eat.

https://www.robertshawsfarmshop.co.uk up in Queensbury, a few miles out of Bradford. Not at all far from me. All sorts in there sourced from producers all over Yorkshire, Derbyshire and the North West. Brilliant meat section, excellent veg, pretty good tins, jars and dried food section (mostly from Suma in Halifax) and breads - English and Indian style in abundance, including those lovely Syrian breads that go crispy when they cool. In these COVID times, its a much lower (and more local) footfall than any supermarket, so absolutely perfert! Just don't tell everyone ...

Soap Arko Stick
Brush Yaqi 28mm Synthetic
Razor Parker 26C OC on Yaqi Handle
Blade Elios Inoxidable 4th
Post & Aftershave
Ice Water + Special Thayers Mix
Hyaluronic + Old Spice Lime + Polo EDT
Very nice thick and slick lather. Scent is pleasant for me...
Shave with razor paired with the blade was smooth, sharpish and reasonably comfortable. Almost no blade feel. Went for better result and pay for it with some creepers. 3+1 multiple passes. Between bbs to dfs. Icy water rinse followed by Thayers then Hyaluronic and Lime.
