    Monday

    Edwin Jagger DE89 - Gillette Superthin blade - Palmolive soap in a ramekin - Vie Long Hoger - Alum

    That razor and that blade are a winning combo, for me. BBS in 2 passes and no sting from the alum.
    Regards

    Prep: Hot Shower
    Razor: The Swede
    Brush: VDH Boar
    Soap: Speick Shavestick
    AS: Aloe Vera Gel
    Finish: Agua Lavanda Puig

    Great shave, this razor was a complete PITA to get an initial edge on but once there, it just seems to hold a great edge forever and effortlessly deliver consistently great shaves. No PT tonight as Monday is my day off.
