A wonderful bit of bathroom time for a Sunday morning set up.
I overloaded with the soap today and had enough of the good stuff for about 4-5 passes, i always forget how much easier it is to get a great lather with my synths as they hold onto nothing compared to a natural brush, the RR 400 Plissoft is a lather monster.
The Stainless C Plate Karve fitted with the 7'o'C Black is a joy to use, so comfortable and efficient.
3 passes for an easy BBS finish.
A nice post shave with my EO Infused balm and argan oil, finishing with a splash of CK Be
Feeling and smelling real good.
Another plus yesterday, i received my letter to book my C-19 Vaccination, that is all sorted.
So,
Stay safe and enjoy your day all, we are not out of the woods yet, so to speak.

Todays Shave Kit Sunday 7th March 2021

Shave Score 9.90/10.0


PreShave: Hot Shower
PreShave Cream: Proraso Refreshing
Soap: Tabac
Brush: Clear Confidence Co Synthetic Shaving Brush - Vegan-Friendly
Razor: Merkur Progress 500 (3.0, 2.5, 2.5)
Blade: Feather Pro (1)
Post Shave ASL: Speick
Post Shave Balm: Barts ASB Ben Macdui (Rosemary & Sandalwood)
Post Shave Cologne: Geoffrey Beene - Bowling Green

Found it quite an effort to get a decent lather out of the Tabac, might be my hard water, but had to load up twice to get a decent amount of nice lather in the copper bowl.

Loving these Barts Balms so far, they leave an great face feeling, super smooth, but not greasy.

And wow the Feather Blades get a close cut and give great audio feedback, surprisingly no nicks, and a DFS was had.

Have a Great Day All :)

Pre: shower and Proraso pre-shave cream Menthol
Soap: the neglected aka Cinderella aka Proraso Mentolo Super Formula, bowl leathering
Brush: Yaqui Sagrada
Blade: Astra Green
Razor: Above the Seygus (ATT S1 purchased from Motto with Seygus 2020 handle).
Post: Alvarez Gomez blast-off-your-socks Colonia Concentrada
A superb shave, courtesy the ATT S1 I guess. Astra green never worked so nicely for me.
And I should use more frequently my humble Proraso, a more than respectable soap.
Have a good Sunday Folks!

The S1 is one of my favourite razors. You've got a keeper there.
