SOTD : Saturday 23th January to Friday 29nd January 2021.

I hope everything is ok.
 
Sat Shave- 23rd January.

Muhle Silvertip-A ,21mm
Hampshire Wool Fat
Occams Oren-3dot
Feather Proguard [ 2 ]
Pitralon Classic A/S lotion

I am continuing my run of longer Shaves with a Razor, by using another one from The Occams family. This time I am using The Oren, which despite its lightweight after using The Hiram, still delivers a trouble free quality Shave. As other forum members have recognised this soap produced by a UK Artisan is rather good.

Razor: Blackland Sabre L1
Blade: GEM (2)
Brush: AP Shave 2BED
Soap: TDS Menthol
Pre: Proraso Green
ASL: Proraso Green
ASB: Floïd



Another splendid shave. I'll refrain from buying new but I'll snap up a Sabre L1 if one ever appears on the BST.

I have the TDS lather dialled in now and today's was exceptional. This menthol soap has a nice citrus type note to it that I can't explain with a nice (not face freezing) cooling effect. I was expecting to move some of these soaps on and bought them out of curiosity but I've liked each of them so far - with the exception of the Juniper that has a new home. The final one to try is Lavender and Musk* which is the best smelling from the tub.

* I think it was musk
