Week of September 4 SOTD - Monday
A LABOR DAY SHAVE
Pre-Shave: Hot shower |
Brush: 26mm Saville Row 3326 Silvertip Badger |
Maxtom: 15/16" Max Sprecher, 1/4 Hollow Ground, French Point (w/ Makume Gane scales) |
Strop: 20/45/45 (Neil Miller Linen / Imperial Horsehide leather / Imperial Cordovan leather) |
Überlather: Martin de Candre Shave Soap |
Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Lavender, no alcohol) |
After Shave Splash: Floïd Italian Amber AS |
Moisturizer: Martin de Candre Oil of Copra |
Cologne: Martin de Candre "Lavende" EdT |
Results: What an incredible shave. Four plus days of uncontrolled growth wiped away with pretty much one of a handful of razors that could live up to the challenge, i.e., the Maxtom. The Martin de Candre needs no introduction to this audience. It provided a luxuriously rich lather, resulting in the "perfect" prep. The end result left me feeling like a million bucks :y. |
