SOTN
Razor: Blackland Vector
Blade: Schick Proline (1)
Brush: Wald A1 Nimbus Luster
Soap: Saponifico Varesino Cubebe
Splash: Saponifico Varesino Cubebe

Think the star of the show was the Wald, I couldn’t resist the sparkles… a big step up in luxury in the brush department. Lovely feel on the face and lathered up the soap beautifully.

A very close shave. Managed to give myself a couple of very slow weepers. No lasting damage, and my face feels fine now. Another reminder to not get lackadaisical just because I'm using a Tech.

Don’t laugh when i say limited Edition brush lol
i searched high & low for this brush although iv had it a couple of years now and it’s a great edition.
Anyway iv said on here many times
sometimes a shave comes out the blue which is totally top drawer,
A straight 10/10 and tonight this was the one.
I was thinking earlier i haven’t used my MDC for around 18 months to 2 years yet here i am enjoying a shave which everything would amount to a third of the price.
I’m running low on the wilko sticks and they’ll certainly be a sad loss when i’m out but in the mean time i’ll remember them for what they are and for me there’s not much better out there
regardless of cost.
Love it love it love it
Until Tomorrow
Adios

Wanting to know what Valentia was I fell down a fascinating rabbit hole on wiki finding out about Roman place names and settlements.I’m still none the wiser where Valentia was and so are the experts

A good rabbit hole to go down
