Thursday, 1/9/20:

Razor - Edwin Jagger 3one6
Blade - Astra SP (2)
Brush - CaYuen "Stormy Twilight" 23mm best badger
Soap - WCS Glogg
A/S - Brickell unscented balm

Another day, another excellent shave from the EJ, my last with it for a while. This razor really is quality. My first time with the WCS holiday-themed Glogg: performance was great as you'd expect from Oleo, but the scent I don't think is for me. It's cherry-based as is B&M's Dickens, but I like Dickens better. This reminds me more of sangria or something, and I just don't think it does it for me. Might PIF it at some point. But the results were a glass-smooth two-pass DFS to start the day off right.

This will be my last shave with the Fine Marvel razor. Not much to say about the process, but I can say that this razor is now part of regular rotation. I soaped up with the Grooming Dept’s Scentless Donkey Milk soap. I love all of Mohammed’s soaps. The Donkey Milk whipped up into a thick, glistening lather that the Marvel glided through effortlessly. Two passes on the face and one and one half half on the noggin and that’s all she wrote. The result - another BBS on both shaving areas. There was no heat or burn anywhere after testing with the Alum block. I love the way my face feels with this soap. I washed both dome and face afterwards with the Donkey Milk brush squeezings and could have foregone the AS, but being a Menth head enjoyed the wonderful cooling effect of Royal Lyme AS enhanced with a generous amount of M-Bomb.

RAZOR: Fine Marvel Safety Razor on SS Barber Pole handle
BLADE: Suneko
PREP: Cold water rinse followed by PAA’s Charcoal-Menthol Cube Preshave Soap
BRUSH: Omega Pro48
SOAP: Grooming Dept Donkey Milk
POSTSHAVE: Cold water wash with brush squeezings followed by Thayers Lavender WH and finished with Royall Lyme AS Splash

This makes me really want to try the AS-D2; nice write-up.

I really don’t want to enable RAD, but it is one heck of a razor for me!
