SOTD, Monday 02 April 2018
Pre-shave - Warm shower, Wright's Cold Tar Soap wash followed by warm water splash.
Cream - Speick Men.
Brush - Muhle Purist, Silvertip Fibre.
Bowl - Little Wren Pottery.
Razor - Rex Supply Co. Ambassador Adjustable DE Razor - setting 3.
Blade - Astra SP (Green) (day 3).
Post shave - Clinque Post Shave Balm, followed by Myrsol After Shave Balsamic Water.
Sunday's shave of the day was a divine, very lazy affair, late on in the afternoon with essentially the same set-up. A 3 pass shave with a BBS finish.
Today I only needed a 2 pass shave, the main change in today's recipe was shift from Murdock Avalon shave cream to the Speick. I cannot praise the Speick cream highly enough: highly protective, good glide and very cost effective 3.49 Euro (I picked up some in Berlin), the other week.
I am enjoying shaving again with a DE razor, having predominately shaved with SE razors for the last 6 - 7 months. I must try and shake up my shave rotation more. While I am enjoying the DE shaving I do notice that SE shaving is more efficient in terms of fewer passes are required.
I hope everyone has a good Easter Monday,
All the best,
Chris
