Todays shave

Pre-Shave: Warm Face Wash
Razor: GD208 6/8
Brush: Simpson Chubby 3 in Best
Soap: Fine Classic puck L’Orange Noir

Post-Shave: Alum Block
Fine L’Orange Noir AS Solash
Floid Vetiver Splash ASB
Creed GIT (decant)

Wonderful shave to start the day. Left it a bit too long between shaves as had a few in-growing hairs. Little bit of claret but nevertheless a really good close shave. No alum sting but a little sting off the splash. GIT is a wonderful scent but is it worth the premium ? Now there’s a debate question.

Out......AGAIN
The ceramic scuttle that I purchased at the end of last month does a great job of keeping my lather warm throughout my three pass shave, but it is much too heavy for slippery hands. In this case size does matter. I bought a much smaller one.

Day 11, 35.5% complete

Preshave: Hot washcloth
Soap: Palmolive Stick, made into a puck
Brush: Yaqi 24mm synthetic cashmere
Razor: GC.84 SB, Al Handle, Astra SP #6
Bowl: Turkish copper
Post-shave: Nivea Balm

Palmolive day again. What a contrast between green and blue Astras! Maybe my blue ones are counterfeit.

Got an excellent and comfortable near-BBS with this kit.
