Post: Lothur Shaving Shave Migos AS & TEV 470 (TF Ombre Leather)
That was weird switching back from GEMs after a month, this is clearly not right but somehow after that time the blade felt 'soft', very weird way to describe it but there you have it. The newly acquired Tradere SB plate is super smooth, I like the OC but this may be the new go to on this razor.
First use of the Lothur, didn't dial it on on the first use, the second pass lather was a little watery, clearly didn't load enough. The scent though, blimey I love Ombre Leather and the soap delivers.
The splash was a little lacking initially, I got a heavy alcohol scent on the palm and applying, but it did the job.
Finished off with TEV dupe which is excellent, I've got the real deal from duty free but I'll make my way through this first.
I wanted to hit a couple of badgers after Austere August before taking the MOAR Boar through a fresh break in. Plus with the size of it I think I'll need to use a soap that I don't mind destroying or one that is easily replaceable.
Hope everyone has a grand day and a good kick off to the weekend.
Cheers
Marc
