SOTD, Saturday afternoon, October 11th, 2014

Shower + Clearly Natural glycerin soap face lather and rinse
Again, face lather with the same glycerin soap
Omega 620 badger brush
First pass with Dubl Duck Goldedge 5/8" straight razor
And the glycerin soap lather began to dry a little and the Duck was dragging
Add some more water
Second pass with AOS/Gillette Flexball + Fusion cartridge
Cool washcloth rinse
Myrsol K aftershave
D.R. Harris Albany cologne


Just an experiment; the glycerin soap would be fine for shaving 'in a pinch'!
Resulting shave was still perfect.

Today's shave was scary only in its implications. I've been getting fantastic shaves with a Trac ii--please don't throw anything. It's the soap, people. I'm finding that either synergy or ppf soaps give me great shave regardless of what hardware I use.

Pre: Shower with CaD Castile soap, cold rinse
Soap: Synergy CaD stick in a La Toja case
Brush: Frank's Pur-Tech
Razor: Bump Stopper handle with Gillette Trac ii plus cartridge
Method: cold water, 2 passes NS/SN with some cleanup
Post: alum block
AS: a mixture of Fine AB/Snakebite/Unscented Witch Hazel/Glycerine.

Looking good, smelling good and feeling good!

Have a fantastic Saturday, everyone.
