Firstly a big Thank you for all your thoughtful wishes and kind words regarding my recent bereavement, also, a massive thank you for the very thoughtful cards i received from TSR friends, they really helped me get through, what was for me, a very difficult situation.
Anyway, i thought i had better start to post a SOTD again and get back to some form of normality.
I did enjoy that shave.
Stay safe and enjoy your day All

Extrocosmesi Arzachena
Yaqui Sagrada Familia
Above The Tie S1/Astra green
Alum
Alvarez Gomez Colonia Concentrada

Very pleased with my latest aquisition, the Arzachena soap. I am no parfume expert, to me seems fabulous. Fresh, delicate, herbal, a hint of sea smell... I am thinking to get the matching AS. Not as sumptuous lather as a tallow-based soap (which I love) but more than protective during and after the shave. And being made in Italy is a plus for me!

A green setup a set-up matching with my bathroom tiles (not intentional of course)...

Omega 10005 Boar - Derby - Parker Variant/ Astra SP - Pinaud Brandy Spice

I have been using the Derby Stick most of the week and actually enjoyed it. The Parker was brought into play as I wanted to give it a run out for comparison ..... prior to receiving my new Pearl Flexi.
The blade has been removed and installed in the Pearl....ready for tomorrow.

3 passes for a great result:)

Duty’s still out on this razor for me & i can’t make up my mind if i’m keeping it or getting rid.

I know it’s my fault & i know it’s bad technique but i always seem to cut myself with this one.
One lapse of concentration and it’s a blood bath.
i’m really glad i don’t shave the pubes with that razor, i’d have a split personality for sure,
or a split something :ROFLMAO:
