Muhle R41
Blade: Personna 74(54)
Brush: Muhle Kosmo STF
Soap: MdC Original
A/S: Davidoff Cool Water
Post Shave: Proraso Green Balm, Nivea Hyaluron Gel

Tonight for MdC/Muhle Monday i reverted to the week before lasts setup. I love the Kosmo because it is like it just deposits the lather on my face like magic. With MdC being such a fantastic soap it is no wonder it is my second favourite day of the week (after SV Saturday of course).
The 54th use of the P74 blade was yet another smooth affair as it just keeps wracking up the shaves.

Rambling thoughts :)
might get Old Spice again but Lucky Tiger is going to be my #1 go to for post shave as its just so nice for me since its Alcohol-free no feedback sleight sting and I kinda like that and again I am kinda a minimalist so prefer not to have to many choices as I tend to ONLY want to use my true favorite anyway
but I LOVE Old Spice so might keep it around for a mid day splash
its OK to have two favorites maybe :)
but at the same time I am kinda liking just using cologne to smell good these days ? And Lucky Tiger seems to blend in go away super fast for me
Anyway who knows what will happen in the long run

366 shaves in 2024
Shave#86 of 366 remaining 280(100%)

Razor:
Muhle R41
Blade: Personna 74(55)
Brush: Yaqi Moka-Express 2 band
Soap: TFS Rasozero Barbaccio
A/S: Davidoff Cool Water
Post Shave: Proraso Green Balm, Nivea Hyaluron Gel

Tonight I started again with the 3017 shaves with Barbaccio lathering with the Moka-Express once more. It is a brush with very soft tips and a joy to use the only reason I don't use it with the likes of SV and MdC is that it takes too much soap to load it though if you are trying to 3017 a soap that is just another advantage.
The P74 blade once again delivered a great shave, I seem to get the best results from vintage blades, my best so far being 60 from a vintage Schick, but the P74 seems to be chasing the record now.
