SOTD : Saturday 2 July - Friday 8 July 2022.

[Blackmass]

Homelike Start 2 (1.70)*
Gillette Silver Blue
Maseto Finest
Westman Gerês*
Tuff aftershave

*The Start 2 is on loan from a member from other forum and the soap is another sample from him too.

Second shave with The Start 2, this time with the 1.70 baseplate. Not as smooth or comfortable as the 1.40 baseplate but still great results.
The soap was good but I think I had a bit of a reaction to it? My lips were numb for a little while afterwards. My sense of smell isn't 100% at the moment but the scent was nice.

Have a great weekend Gents.

Cheers
Rob

Yaqi AC - Schick Proline P #7 - Signature Soaps Capra Cornium - Yaqi Sagrada Familia - Cien X-Bolt - Aloe Vera Gel

Brian included a generous sample of Capra Cornium when I bought the Novus Spice. The scent is very pleasant with woody, spicy, citrusy notes.

Btw Brian, I transferred the soap and label to a spare tin.

Top marks for repurposing!
I get frustrated when people ask me what they should do with empty tins and polypropylene tubs. My answer is - do what your dad did, put screws, nut and bolts or anything that will fit in them and don’t throw them out!

Friday

Been using the Brit flare tip whilst away, so to finish off this week, I thought I'd do the USA one.

A bit of Ramblin' man sure smells quite nice. Provided a DFS all around.

Another razor to break out tomorrow.

Have a good one

Getting ready for the 'scorcher' according to the UK weatherman

Wilkinson Sword Synthetic Shaving Brush

It's for real ... Some chatter here https://www.theshavingroom.co.uk/community/threads/newbie-to-shaving-brushes-need-help-please.54329 with a confusing set of claims that the Wilkinson Sword shaving brush is synthetic and has been for about a decade, while others have never seen such a thing...

SOTD: 08/07/2022

Razor: Gillette Tech
Blade: Tiger Platinum, 4th use
Brush: ZENITH Unbleached bristle chrome handle 2000 C XSE
Bowl: Captains Choice Copper Lather Bowl Standard Bowl
Preshave: Proraso Pre-Shave Cream Sensitive Cream
Soap: Stirling Ozark Mountain Puck
Aftershave: Stirling Christmas Eve EDT
Balm: Baxter Of California Aftershave Balm
Additional Care: Osma Laboratoires Alum Block

A fabulous final day with the Tech, the Tiger was smooth and mild blade, nicer than I thought it would be. The Christmas Eve is lovely sweet piney scent and works just as well with the Ozark and in the summer heat.
Have a good weekend guys.
