Sotd - yesterday - Saturday the 22nd of February
Prep - facial scrub
razor - PAL Injectomatic
blade - vintage Schick single (?)
brush - Wee Scot tortoiseshell LE
soap - Haslinger sheep
post - witch hazel
a/s - Nivea 2 in 1
balm - none needed
scent - Sauvage parfum.
Result - great - my face has forgiven me for cutting it up a treat last week. Two shaves with Kent/MWF and Haslinger yesterday seems to have done the trick - both soaps that are pretty much unsurpassed in skin care in my experience. The only ones that come close - in my opinion - are artisan products that have castor oil in the formula. The Wee Scot is a natural companion to the Haslinger - being both of diminutive dimensions. It is a superb brush for face lathering - precise - the knot has a lovely scritch to it - and it will hold as much lather as you need. If you are okay with badger you should try one - if you haven't already. I enjoyed using the PAL - I think I'll break open a new pack of Japanese twin blades and revisit my Schicks for the foreseeable. Enjoy the remainder of the weekend and shave well - yours - I.

Oh - does anyone know if there is any difference between these two packs of WS blades? - other than packaging and price - the one on the left was two euros 55 cents - the other - 4.65 euros. Back labeling indicates same place of manufacture - I do notice that the design of the more expensive ones matches the branding used on the packaging of their recent tto razor. Marketing scam?
