S.O.T.D w/c Saturday 3rd - Friday 9th August 2013

Today, a 100% italian shave!



Pre Chipre Imperial soap + old Omega lanolized shaving cream + Omega Nº45 boar+ Fatip black chrome with Bolzano #3 + Proraso lotion with Omega balm

Very fresh and clean! This Fatip is not very agressive, or at least not as many people claim, hehe

Cheers!

Upon reaching the house at the Pyrenees and enter the bathroom and see the cabinet I panicked. I thought my stuff could not fit.

But finally I succeeded. You think I can do a good rotation with this material? Two weeks?

Dr D, - your photos made me laugh out loud - I had to show my wife so that she can see that what I take on holiday is miniscule in comparison.

Yesterday's:

MRGLO
Fatboy
Personna Platinum (3)
Proraso Red
Shaving.ie Silvertip
Bulldog Moisturiser
C&E Nomad

Haven't used a fatboy since the pass around, but I got this one recently and had forgotten how good it is.

Yesterday was a warm, but not roasting, day so the combination of Proraso Red, Bulldog Moisturiser (lavender-ish) and Nomad edt was a good match.
 
Hot flannel
Proraso pre, white
Simpson's Colonel X2L, Cella
Feather AS-D2, Personna Red (1)
Cold splash
Clinique post-shave healer

Worst shave I've had for a very long time. The AS-D2 is clearly not for me. I'm strongly considering it for the BST box reserved for the pre-Christmas buying frenzy... if I don't drop kick it into the canal first
 
Today's shave

A hair cut with the Wahl clippers ( 3mm )
1970s ball end tech (for my neck)
Push button Gem ( gold plated )
Gem Blade ( second outing )
NSS Grapefruit & Lemongrass shaving soap (soft)
Re knotted Kent BK2 brush

Old Spice WhiteWater aftershave Splash

Result BSS WTG

Wahl snipers for the nose hair since I'm using () a lot might as well finish with them ( de fluffing the conk )
 
Evening, gents.

Sunday:

Prep: Claus Porto's Lime-oil face soap
Razor: EJ DE89 with iKon bulldog handle
Blade: Treet Dura Carbon (2)
Brush: Ecotools kabuki
Shave soap: La Toja stick
A/S: Pashana Bay Rum
Cologne: Korres Saffron Amber Agarwood and Cardamom

Still a bit tuggy but a perfectly BBS shave without any irritation - most impressive.

Used the GEM Micromatic solo today, face and head in one shave. Myrsols Metilsol was a joy to use (medial herb like feeling to the scent and jet again excellent result). Jabonmans Citricos has a devine scent with lemon grass bas note, Begamot and Neroli + other scents are in there too - Estupendo shave and gear! :D


Dear Dr D, you're a nut case and you fit right in here! Wow think about it - if Martini had joined us in Barcelona I think we could have given Salvador Dali a run for his money :D

Sure. Martini and Dalí would enjoy our crazy company.
