A cheeky massage with the Bart's Balm lotion as i like it so much and it did compliment the scent of the soap and post shave products.

B. - card de jour - I was struggling - Dutch for sure - until I saw the female figure - the Virgin Mary in fact - a detail from 'The Descent from the Cross' - Van der Weyden. Its in the Prado - very impressive 'in the flesh' - cheers - I.

After the usual 1-2 minute hot towel prep:

Colonel Conk superbadger
Muhle rose gold handle DE89/Iridium Super
Coates rose shaving cream.....old version
Lucky Tiger AS and Face balm
AOS cypress/sandalwood EdT

Found this brush maybe 10 days ago and have been using it a bunch since then. This razor is a pleasure to have on my face. On the milder side which suits me just fine, with enough bite to leave me with a BBS shave. Very nice having that newer to me item in my rotation.

BBS results,

Martin

If this shave was a song it would've been 'I could have shaved all night', I enjoyed that and my face and I now have an better understanding as to how/why Hega is so widely used

 

[Satanfriendly]

The theme for today's shave is 'There is no shave'

So I give you a SOTD photo of some fluffy cute little kittens in a basket



I am stuck on a tug for longer than expected and no shaving gear

What no shaving gear? Indeed no shaving gear. But I will always have time for some lovely Japanese girls playing thrash metal



Have happy shaves you lucky blighters

Sotd - Monday the 28th of October

Razor - Schick - O Type clone
blade - Schick vintage - single (1)
soap - Haslinger - Schafmilch - hard - tallow
brush - Simpsons Wee Scot - LE - best badger
post - witch hazel
a/s - Epsilon Blue
balm - Nivea - Cool Hidrante.

Result - muy bien.

Back in my shaving mojo - agua caliente - me gusta - muchos. Do you ever get in a rut with your razors? I had - went back to my favourite Schick - the O type clone - normally I use a modern twin Japanese blade in it - but couldn't find any in the den. I have nice examples of the I type and onwards to the O - going through the alphabet. The ones that take the double blades - Schicks shave well - for me - with any blade - but the twin blades are exceptional. I think that @mpf9ret - got the same razor at the same time? Fantastic soap - and a fantastic brush - if you are good with badger - you owe it to yourself to try the Wee Scot - tiny - granted - but holds enough lather for three passes. No shit. Gloriously precise. Enjoy your shaves - yours - I.
