Week of November 13 SOTD - Tuesday
A late but relaxing shave
Pre-Shave: Hot shower Brush: 28mm Rodney Neep Extra Stuffed Silvertip Badger with Thuya Burl handle Maxterpiece: 7/8" Novelty "1879", Full Hollow Ground, Spike Point (w/ Ebony scales + Yellow wedge) Honing (Refresh) Regimen: 7 (light) laps w/ CrOx on leather Strop: 0/65 laps (Tony Miller Heirloom Horsehide leather) Soapreme: RazoRock "XXX" Shave Creme + Arko Shave Soap (Stick) + Glycerin Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose, no alcohol) Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer After Shave Splash: Floïd Italian Blue AS After Shave Balm: RazoRock AS Wax Cologne: Acqua di Parma "Colonia" EdT Results: I took out my Novelty for a spin around whisker-land today and was not disappointed at all. My newest brush from Rodney Neep arrived yesterday . This densely stuffed soft silvertip badger hair is mounted on top of gorgeous Thuya burl wood and finished/polished with several layers of CA. She whipped up some luxuriously moist and delicious lather with a scent that was outstanding and a performance to die for. The Novelty did what she was supposed to do...and all without a single inkling of discomfort or irritation. What a fantastic feeling.
Have a PRODUCTIVE Tuesday gentlemen.
