Wednesday 9th December

Soap - Signature Soaps CorIa
Brush - YaqI Chianti 24mm Synthetic
Razor - RazoRock Game Changer .84-P
Blade - Gillette Silver Blue (3)
Post - Boots No7 Balm

To wind down from a 5AM start and working out in the rain for half of the day, a hot bath and shave rounded off my day nicely.
Having used the mild King C Gillette razor for my previous two shaves, the Game Changer is certainly a step up in performance.
@BrianH 's Coria soap is very dependable - always provides a stable lather and the scent is nice too.
I picked up a small persistent cut under the nose that required stemming with an alum block - suspected pimple sheared while going ATG.
Finished with Boots Balm - it's good stuff and not at all greasy.

Thank you, I find rose geranium and lavender essential oil combination nice and relaxing.

Honestly this Arian & Evans soaps are class i can't get enough of them. the scents are wonderful. This was a cold water shave for me today.
i started with #executive shaving preshave then
Rex Ambassador on setting 4 with a Gillette 7 o'clock yellow first use blade, i found this to be a great combo for me.
Brush was a Alpha Rubberset 400 travel brush, possibly my favourite,
Then on went lashings of Arian & Evans Asian Pear followed by the splash of the same name and finished with a very cheap L'oréal aftershave balm.
All in all it was a wonderful shave but it normally is when i use cold water

Wow. Three days of forgetfulness in a row. I can't tell you how many times I've started and stopped this post over the last couple of days.
Anyhow, two shaves, both good, both highlighted by the interaction of the cream with the synthetic brush. A couple of wonderful lathers and so easy.
I can't wait to see what I forget tomorrow, if it's my head there will be no post...again.

Awesome soap this!! Heard of WK reputation for a long time and finally have 2 samples. The scent was awesome! The lather was thick and creamy and really slick...all from just a tiny bit of soap...in fact, there were some leftovers...hahaha
Shave with one of my top efficient & comfortable razor paired with the blade was just ok. The blade no longer feels sharp and crisp. Still able to do the job but atg was not so comfortable and after 3 multiple passes, only DFS/SAS result. No weepers though. Excellent post & aftershaves. Rating 9/10. The blade will be ditch...

SOTD : 10th December 2020.




​

Shaving recipe for today.

Prep: Warm shower / Cussons Imperial Leather ~ Arctic Ocean & Icelandic Moss Shower Gel.

Pre:

Cold wet flannel to my face.

Brush : Omega S10018.

Bowl Lather.

Tesco's Ceramic 'Cosmo' Side Bowl.

Lather : Palmolive Classic Shave Cream.

Blade: Mers ~ Super Shave X Platinum. (4)

Razor: Parker ~ 55SL Semi-Slant.

Post:

Cold Water Face Rinse./Homemade (~Winter mix~) peppermint Lavender, + eucalyptus, Tea Tree Oil Witch Hazel Mixture./ Denim Original ASL./ Aloe Vera Gel.

Greetings,

Today i went for a hybrid combo of 'Modern/Old School' shave set up.

The dependable Palmolive classic shave cream provided a slick protective lather in a short space of time.... When ever i mention to family and friends that 'I still wear Denim' i get some vague interesting looks and comments....Not that this concerns me in anyway,, the younger chaps that i work with don't understand the greatness of Denim which is a pity, but it's their loss if they can't appreciate a classic 'Old School' fragrance.

A enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a small dollop of Aloe Vera Gel.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling very 'Old School' divine, but i love it!.

Stay safe, and enjoy your Day ladies & gentlemen.
