Week of October 30 SOTD - Friday
Pre-Shave: Hot shower + Whole Foods Grapefruit/Mint Bath soap + Chagrin Valley Conditioner Shampoo bar |
Brush: 24mm Morris & Forndran Blonde Badger |
Razor: 8/8" Palmera #14, Full Hollow Ground, Spike Point (w/ Black Acrylic scales - Done by Dylan) |
Strop: 25/65 laps (Tony Miller Heilroom Horse hide linen/leather) |
Soapreme: Cyril Salter "Indian Sandalwood" Shave Creme + QED "Indian Sandalwood" Shave Soap + Glycerin |
Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose, no alcohol) |
Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer |
After Shave Splash: Floïd Italian Blue AS |
Skinfood: Trumper's Sandalwood |
Results: I gotta get me a Sandalwood AS and cologne to complement the soap/creme. Ideas? Anyways, the shave with the Palmera was amazinghttp://badgerandblade.com/vb/images/...ys/001_wub.gif. But, no surprise there. I gave some of the brushes (including this one) a clean up yesterday and the performance improved 100%. The M&F whipped up an exceptionally good lather. The Sandalwood scent was out of this world as was the prep. Woooahhh :dropjaw:! This is exactly why I like being a man:y. Let's see what this day has in store. |
