Another great shave. Really the only question is whether the razor will do as well with the single blades, when I move to those.

Hardware:

  • Schick DE

  • Superior 22mm SBB
  • Weller bowl

Software:
  • PDP soap
  • Witch hazel

Madame Scodioli "Laudanum" SS
Merkur 38C w/Derby Extra

A quick one-pass shave this morning - the only way to minimize the Scodioli Effect. I'm trying to lather the hell out of this soap, just to get through it faster.
 
Count Down to DC Trip: -1 day

Pre-Shave: Hot shower
Razor: 7/8" Filarmonica Doble Temple #13, Hollow, Spike Point
Brush: 22mm Vulfix Super Badger
Überlather: CarrieM "Bay Rum" Shave Creme + Cella Crema Da Barba Shave Soap+ Glycerin
Astringent: Thayer's Witch hazel (Lavender, no alcohol)
Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer
After Shave Splash: Floïd Italian Blue
Result: I don't think an elaborate introduction to the Flilarmonica, which was the tool for today's shave, will be necessary to this SOTD crowd. The Tallow/Glycerin concoction led by CarrieM's Bay Rum Creme was a delight to the skin. Aaaahhhhhhh!!! Beautifully BBS all throughout. A mix of Trumper's moisturizer with a few drops of Floïd AS left my skin moisturized and refreshed. A wonderful start to this Monday.

...I am leaving for DC on Tuesday AM with two carry-on bags...As such, I cannot take my DE or any straights on board . As much as I hate to do this, I will have to stick to my Fusion razor until Thursday

(but my Vulfix brush and Godrej creme are going with me). Friday will be back to the straight world.

Have a great Monday gentlemen :001_smile.

Robert be careful with your cream. I've had tubes taken at security before. You may want to consider a shave stick. Good luck!
