SOTD: Saturday 29th June - Friday 5th July 2019.

30/06/19

Razor: Oneblade Core
Blade: FHS-10 (1)
Brush: Yaqi 26mm Rainbow
Soap: Kapo
Pre: Pears
ASL: Nivea 2 Phase

This shave wasn't as good as yesterday's. I used the same technique but ended up picking up a couple of small nicks around my mouth (yep, with a Oneblade!!) Although the end result is still socially acceptable. Perhaps the poorer shave is due to the new blade and they'll pick up in quality again. If that's the case, I may have binned the last blade too early at 4 shaves.

The Kapo cream is very good and lathers easily but it's pretty much scent free which may be a turn off for some. Very slick (so I know I can't attribute the shave quality to this). Could be a good cream for @donnie_arko ?

Thanks for the heads up. I've been meaning to pick up a tube of Karo when I get around to placing an order with Gemstone. I'll be sure to add one to the basket when I do.

Cheers.

A very pleasant two pass shave in a hurry, this morning. I was running late but still accomplished a close and damage free shave with the 3one6. I think that, as I continue use this razor, it is beginning to feel like a very good razor indeed.
