54 Flare Tip
Gillette Platinum(6)
Acca Kappa badger
MdC Agrumes
Clubman
Tonight's shave was very nice.
I didn't soak the badger at all, just dipped the tips in warm water and loaded the brush right away. At first it was runny, just needed a little time. With plenty of lather in the bowl I face lathered a bit and could feel a bit of scritch, the lather was very nice, but the brush needs to soften up more.
The Flare Tip went right to work and only needed 2 easy passes, WTG and XTG. I just love the nice swishing sound that comes from this razor. There is nice feedback and not a hint of chatter. I could shave ATG easily, but I don't need the aggravation.
I noticed the Clubman is much nicer to my face than the Arko aftershave is, the Arko balm is ok.
My face feels better today than yesterday's shave. I'm really liking the MdC, the Agrumes has a light scent, kind of a musky citrus........

I was hoping that UPS would show up today with my Semogue 620, as their tracking system sucks compared to FedEx and USPS. At least when they are no-shows they send you a notice. UPS hasn't even updated for a week, and I paid extra. I remember when UPS had better service.......
