SOTN (Head & Face)
Greencult 2.0 (plate 3) - face
Leaf razor - head
Chicago Grooming Co. Smoke on the Water (soap & splash)
BIC Chrome Platinum blade
Alpha Outlaw brush (G4 knot)
HoM Permafrost synthetic coolant
La Roche Posay B5 Balm
First using this soap base, lathered very easily and performed great - great elling too. Tried using the Permafrost to cut the La Roche Posay this evening to, certainly made it a lot easier to apply - the added cooling didn't hurt given the heat of late either .

Well I have had another 2 shaves with my Tech and that Wilkie over the weekend but it's been a manic one and no pics taken. What I did take was a sliver of skin off my eye socket while trying to shave with tired arms after waving a petrol hedge trimmer around all day. The actual shave was good, just some completely unnecessary claret due to jazz hands.
Omega ovangkol wood boar was used today with RR Tuscan Oud. Same soap yesterday but the Simpson Commodore X3 best badger. It's good soap and I like the robust scent. Was hoping to use my SRs this weekend but have not stopped rushing about all W/E so Tech June maintained.

SOTD: 11/06/2023
Razor: Above The Tie SE1
Blade: Kai Captain Mild Blue, 1st use
Brush: Highlander Chubby Style Boti Fan Knot Synthetic
Bowl: 3D Printed Bowl
Preshave: PAA Cube Unscented Soap
Soap: Løthur Calm Croap
Aftershave: Lothur Calm Aftershave
Balm: The Inkey List Vitamin B, C And E Moisturiser Balm
A fabulous Sunday shave but is a reminder that a milder shave isn’t a bad thing, 3 days of the Vector has left my skin slightly tight/raw. The SE1 was a welcome relief and the Lothur Calm was a delight. Definitely a spring/summer soap I was close to moving on but after today I’ve realised it’s season specific and staying in the den.

Decent ish shave today, the Wizamet was on its last legs, towards the back end got a little tuggy. Despite that managed to get an acceptable finish.
Hope everyone has a grand day.

The little Yaqi brush produced an excellent lather with the superb SV soap and felt ‘better’ than the Dandelion, for me. A great two pass shave with the EJ razor. A smooth and very comfortable result.Yaqi Heavy Metal
