Keeping it simple today.

Merkur 34 (it's been a while. Hello old Friend)
Wilkinson sword blades
Edwin Jagger Sea Buckthorn
EJ Best badger

And nothing else. My skin is on the oily side (not too sensitive), so it doesn't tend to need much post-shave care as long as I lather up, take my time, and stick to 3 passes and some touch-up.

My last SOTD for this week.
Saturday, May 4th.
It's already tropically muggy and hot!
So, let's do something cooling and refreshing.
Prep with the new sample of Maggard's orange pre-shave oil.
Martin de Candre's Fougere soft soap
T&H large classic silvertip
Yoresh's nice scuttle
The mild mannered 1947 Gillette gold plated ball end Tech with Gillette Silver Blue blade
Followed by Penhaligon's Racquets cologne, plus a smear of Neutrogena sun block.
Very refreshing!
