SOTD : Saturday 12th February-Friday 18th February 2022.


MWF... my favourite and basically only soap I use. I rub it on the wet skin and lather op... the best way in my opinion
 
Razor = Vintage Gibbs Travel
Blade = Vintage Super Silver ( 1 )
Brush = Shavemac 400 26mm Badger
Soap = Vintage Culmak
Splash Old Spice ( Proctor & Gamble )
Balm = Nivea Original
A very good 3 pass shave today although this little bugger of a razor has a fair bit of bite,
i have 3 weepers as proof
Iv had this razor for months possibly over a year and i thought it was time to give it its first outing.
To be fair it’s a very good efficient razor but it’s one that you need to give 100% concentration.
The Soap is another iv had for a while so again decided to give it a go.
i wasn’t expecting much but i was pleasantly surprised especially with the post shave.
Overall this was a good 7/10 shave
Onwards & Upwards
Stay Safe Boys
 


For anyone else into T&H Grafton today's your lucky day.... M&S have reformulated their "Harvard" range, it used to be a Dior Eau Sauvage clone but now comes in two scents, Sandalwood or Vetiver. The former smells like synthetic sandalwood on a base of synthetic musk, yuck. However, the Vetiver smells lovely... It's not a clone/replica/homage/alike of Grafton, I'm convinced it is Grafton. Probably the same fragrance oil from the same cosmetics manufacturer.

This was an OK Shave comfortwise, but it seems that blades in a Raster tail off quicker than normal. The finish was not as good as anticipated.I seem to remember that the same thing happened withThe Raster V2 the last time I used it.
