Soap - P&B Spitfire

Soap sample was kindly given to me by LeeMaz- one of my favourite scents EVER!
Unfortunately too much water in the brush meant lather was thin, but still an adequate 2 pass shave for work.

A busy Saturday and a late posting, but, a terrific shave this morning despite a bit of a rush. A smooth face was the result, everything working well for this shave, including me.

Prep: Shower with Baxter’s of California Daily face scrub.

Pre: PAA cube unscented.

Soap: Saponificio Varesino Manna do Sicilia

Brush: Omega #625 silver tip badger.

Razor: Leaf Twig

Blade: Solimo blade

Post: Alum, Bart’s lime after shave balm and TOBS no. 74 lime aftershave.

Though it was the weekend I had a busy one so decided the Twig fitted the bill and that I should try to use up some of my samples. I love this soup and it lathered to twice the volume of most I’ve used. A great start to the weekend!

busy day and relaxing shave in the evening with Riga razor. First outing with this huge 8/8 blade - but really enjoyable . I do like heavier razors and that does fit the bill! @RussellR5555 thank you!

also finished off a sample of Stirling mountain man - performance as expected, and beautiful scent (after all it is based of creed silver mountain water )

one small cut - skin level - when I put the razor to the skin next to my mouth ! Slight redness/ blood line for 10 seconds or so and then it closed up on its own. Other than that - bit of irritation in places. Still two passes for dfs! Been a while since I used a straight so I’m quite happy with that!
