Sunday 22nd of September

Razor: Fatip Piccolo
Blade: BIC Chrome Platinum (6 and chucked)
Brush: Omega 10098
Cream: Palmolive classic
A/S: Dickinson's witch hazel, euro Brut and some Healthy Care lanolin cream.

Bit of irritation today. Combo of pushing the blade one shave too far and going from a cream that takes very little water (Shave) to one that is quite thirsty, leading to a bit of under hydration of the lather.

This is the third and final shave with my Karve razor and Personna Medical Prep bade. Like the previous two shaves, today’s shave was smooth and close. The Karve/Personna Med Prep blade worked perfectly. Today’s brush is my oldest brush: a Hoffritz. I have no idea who made the brush. I bought it in 1993 during a going-out-of-business sale at the Hoffritz store in the World Trade Center in New York City. At one time this was one of two bushes shaved with. After more than 7,000 shaves it is still going strong. It was a perfect BBS shave. Have a great day and week, folks

The razor itself is just so cheaply made it detracts from the shave
I enjoy the feel and efficiency of the Feather Cut blades
Finished with the APEX ALU and a Treet Platinum for a wonderful overall shave
