Saturday 21th November to Friday 27th November 2020.

Sunday 22 November 2020 - midday shave - after 40k cycle this morning - left house in mist and fog - returned in brilliant sunshine.
Excellent shave - few days' growth, three passes, just a tiny nick, but still perfect to my standards -:)
Prep: Shower - Nuage Shave Oil
Brush: Yaqi Rainbow 26mm
Razor: Braveheart
Blade: BIC
Soap: Stirling Coconut & Lime
After: Cold Water splash – Ajanta Alum – Autograph ASL
 
Sunday's Shave

  • Pre: Argan Oil Soap
  • Brush: Shavemac 24mm Synbad
  • Razor: Tanifuji 935
  • Soap: Panacrema Nera
  • Splash: Speick Active
  • Balm: Bart's Unscented
  • Scent: Chanel Pour Monsieur
This soap is a new acquisition and a top performer like all Panacrema that I have tried , the scent on this one for me is outstanding. The Tanifuji is a great shaver and the Shavemac one of my favourite brush , so all in all an outstanding Sunday shave.

Today -

prep - Bulldog facial scrub
razor - Yaqi slant
blade - Nacet (4/5?)
brush - Simpson Trafalgar 2
soap - Wickham Apricus - vegan
post - witch hazel
a/s - none
balm - Wickham Apricus
scent - Dior Eau Sauvage edp.

All good - a favourite soap at this time of year - a tub of sunshine on a gloomy afternoon in the dark season. Each to their own - but I don't get on well with synthetic brushes - the Trafalgar is the best I have tried - you can't doubt its efficiency - hell - I almost enjoy using it. There was only one scent to finish off an excellent shave. Enjoy yours - take care - I.

Hyaluronic + PAA Cavendish
The soap is my number 1!! Amazing scent, super creamy and slick lather.
1st use with the famous Karve brass SB-D. Wow....feel so smooth and so comfortable wtg and xtg but atg is abit different. 1st 2 passes shave angle is easy to find but atg especially around the lips area was not easy. Went for 3+1 passes for a between bbs to dfs/ccf result. 1 weeper from just putting the razor to the adam apple incorrectly, otherwise was a good shave. Excellent aftershave. Rating 9.5/10
Must try another blade with razor and see how. Razor feels really good in hand.
