Its All about "The Fat" Synth.
Today i decided to use "The Fat" with my Chubby Synth to see if there was any difference, There was a difference! i was using a synth - and that's it.
I quickly soaked the brush in warm water and loaded for a little longer today, again looking for the creamy goodness forming on the top of the soap, with a little water on the face i completed exactly the same technique as yesterday and in no time i had a lovely thick, slick lather on the chin.
I completed my WTG pass without issue, i thought i may get away with a single pass today after yesterdays really close shave, after a quick rinse, alas, it was not to be, even though no one would be able to tell.
So with the remnants of the rinse water on the chops i completed another face lather and was rewarded with another lovely covering. I completed my 2nd pass routine of WTG from cheek to jawline, then ATG from neck up to jawline. result DFS+ without issue.
That's all i needed.
So after the rinse off i decided to go for lather #3, this time i added about 3 drops of water dripped from the fingers into the top/centre of the knot, an easier 3rd face lather than yesterday and plenty of it. I left that on the face while i cleaned the sink, brush and razor and dried both off. The lather stayed throughout the clean up. A quick rinse leaving a lovely post shave feeling.
Then an Alum rub giving no indication, cold water splash and a rub of my Bay Rum Splash. Very nice.
A great post shave, today using the Vintage 4711 matched with the Lime Barts Balm.
Whoo Hoo!
I enjoyed that.
Whats that???? its the postman, i am excited now.
Stay safe and enjoy your day All.
