SOTD: Saturday February 4 - Friday 10 February 2023.

Beautiful SOTN (Head & Face) following recent mail call.

Blackland Era SB5 (face)
Leaf & Henson AL13++ (Head)
HC&C Year of the Tiger (soap & splash)
Alpha Outlaw UKWSS Brush
AP Shave Co 26mm G5C knot
Lord Super Chrome
Proraso Red then Coconut Oil with Argan Oil Preshave
Nivea Pro Sensitive Ultra Calming & La Roche Posay B5 Balms - saw both and couldn't decide so figured why not double up
Boots Tea Tree & Witch Hazel Booster Serum

First use with HC&X Year of the Tiger, a tremendous scent and outstanding soap & splash - my first from HC&C. Spoiled myself to a nice leisurely shave this evening, outstanding from start to finish.

Sorry to see this Chris, only just seen the post. Dogs are every bit like family, especially after all these years.
 
Very sad news Chris, I unfortunately know how that horrible event feels. My condolences.
 

SOTD: 05/02/2023

Razor: Merkur Futur Clone
Blade: Voskhod Teflon Coated, 3rd use
Brush: Boti Annual Ring
Bowl: 3D Printed Bowl
Preshave: PAA Cube Unscented Soap
Soap: HC&C Unscented Puck
Balm: Baxter Of California Aftershave Balm
Scent Oil: HC&C Emperor Oud

I absolutely love this scent and it lathered up a treat with the little Boti I was kindly gifted and only just got round to using. The HC&C oil apparently can be mixed with white rum or any scentless alcohol to make a splash so I thought I’d finally give it a shot so to speak to see how it works. I tried a little splash as directed and only one drop of oil and it worked a treat, the scent lasted all day and was amazing! I’m definitely going to buying more soon!
 

RazoRock SS Hawk V3 Standard / Schick Proline / Oumo 26mm SILK/Manchuria / DG Weinstrasse Shave Soap & AS
I picked up two new RazoRock Artist Club single edge razors, the V3 standard and the V3.open comb. The standard version gives a surprisingly smooth and efficient shave – much more efficient than any of my vintage Gillette DEs, just not as pretty.
