Week of January 30 SOTD - Sunday
Pre-Shave: Hot shower |
Brush: 26mm Saville Row 3326, Silvertip Badger |
Razor: 6/8" Solgen "Real Japanese Hollow Ground" #75, Hollow, Truncated French Point/Angled Spike Point |
Strop: 55/65 (Neil Miller linen/Premium IV leather) |
Überlather: CarrieM "Spicy Orange" Shave Creme + Mitchell's Wool Fat Shave Soap + Glycerin |
Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose Petal, no alcohol) |
Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer |
After Shave Splash: Floïd Italian Blue |
Results: CarrieM's "Spicy Orange" was a wonderful scent and combined with the MWF, produced an exceptionally moist, and thick lather. The Saville Row's wonderfully soft tips was a treat to use and work the lather in. This is, by far, the best part of shaving - i.e., prepping. I love taking my time. The Solgen was definitely in charge today. She had no problems wiping the 5 O'clock shadow from yesterday, leaving behind a wonderfully smooth and BBS skin. Now, I am ready for a relaxing day today. |
