Fri 5th SOTD
Soap The Goodfellas Smile Italian Orange
Brush Yaqi 26mm Orange Black
Razor Yaqi AC Brass
Blade Feather ProGuard 3rd
Post & Aftershaves Ice Water + Thayers + Hyaluronic + The Goodfellas Smile Orange Empire AS
Long ignored soap. One of my fav soap. The nice orangey scent, easy to lather, and beautifully creamy and slick too.
This razor with the blade continues to provide a silky smooth and comfortable shave. Another glass-like BBS result after 3passes. I am amazed at the ease and the efficiency especially at areas (adam apple) where other DE razors just can't reach.
The AS is new and matched perfectly with the soap. Very uplifting for the morning...
Another 10/10 rating for the day!

I'll jump on the Pinaud wagon today. Decanted into a bitters dasher. Yesterday's shave was so nice the aftershave is the only thing I will change. Last day for this soap this week I am looking forward to using something else.

Noticed my base plate is still upside down to dry. I'm sure you'll forgive me

My first post here on the SoTd also my first shave on this newly acquired little herder an absolute beauty that’s just been freshly honed with a 20k edge. Had a beautiful shave the edge was simply perfect very smooth, got very slight irritation but I haven’t been straight shaving very long so that’s down to me. Truly enjoyable shave today and using one of my favourite scents rose was just the cherry on top
