Greetings,


A new shave set up to start the weekend...After the comfortable shaves i had with the Indian made gillette winner blades with my previous week SOTD's i carried on with them for another week...Paired together with the parker 55SL made a wonderful smooth non-assertive yet efficient made indian duo mowing through my stubble with effortless ease.

I've only 3 shaves under my belt with the Parker 55SL, but this smooth non-aggressive yet efficient indian princess has claimed the title as my favourite slant razor within my DE razor collection..A superb razor.

A very enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups bbs shave with no errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a few generous squirts of Oud 24 Hours EDP to the pulse points.

My face is feeling super smooth and smelling extremely devine.;)

Enjoy the start of the last weekend of 2019 ladies & gentlemen.😎

SOTD 12/28/19

Broke out my 1905 Gillette Old Type Single Ring which shaves pretty well for a 114 yr old girl! She breezed through a very comfortable three pass DFS floating on a cushion of MWF. That initial cold water rinse sets the stage for that first pass! This silver plated beauty sang her way through the whisker reduction on my face and dome leaving me feeling clean, smooth and refreshed. All in all a delightful way to begin this 28th day of Decadent December.

RAZOR: Gillette 1905 Old Type Single Ring
BLADE: Suneko
PREP: Cold water rinse followed by a scrub with PAA’s Charcoal-Menthol Cube Preshave Soap
BRUSH: Viking Silvertip Badger
SOAP: Mitchell’s Wool Fat
POSTSHAVE: Cold water wash with brush squeezings followed by Thayers Lavender WH and finished with Fine Lavender Pour Homme AS Splash
