SOTD "FREE WEEK" September 16th - September 22nd, 2019

Tuesday, 9/17:

Razor - Merkur 15C
Blade - Astra SP (2)
Brush - Cremo horse hair
Bowl - Supply marble bowl
Soap - Barrister & Mann Reserve Classic
Aftershave - Proraso Cypress and Vetiver balm

The Merkur 15C is an excellent mild consecutive-day shaver for me, who mostly skips days between shaves. Very mild and comfortable shave today, and the B&M really helped it glide easily even more. Feeling refreshed and basically awesome. :001_cool:

Have a great day!
 
Finishing up a fairly scentless puck of Haslinger Coconut which I've been pretreating with Peppermint oil. I wind up with a great lather that is fresh and bright and gives a cooling effect. I used a 34C with an Astra SP. My brush is a vintage ER with a big TGN Finest reknot. I used a G5 scuttle to build the lather today. Finished with a cold water splash and the smallest dab of 444. I love using Peppermint oil with unscented AOS cream, too. I imagine it is a step above the AOS Peppermint that shows up around the holidays, but I haven't tried it.
