This was the sixth consecutive day I used my Feather AS-D2 razor with a Feather blade. I’ll probably keep the blade for another few shaves. Today’s brush is Uomo da Vinci Silvertip, #293. This brush is not the best-looking brush I own - but it feels great on my face. m I am using the Haslinger soap for the tenth consecutive day. I have been using brushes with less water in them and found that using a dryer brush with this soap results In a smoother shave. I squeeze out most of the water in the brush and keep it damp rather than wet. Today’s shave was a perfect BBS shave. Have a wonderful day.

Soap: Razorock Caribbean Holiday
Brush: Yaqi 24mm Silvertip badger
Bowl: Captain's Choice Heavyweight copper
Post shave: Omega alum block, Thayer's Witch Hazel

This would normally be a non-shave day, but I shaved anyway. It was an easy three pass shave, no weepers, etc. and no irritation. I didn't push for the perfect shave, the goal was to enjoy the shave and new soap.

Enjoy your day!
