Mon 18th SOTD with New Soap & Razor
Soap Stirling Haverford
Brush Yaqi 26mm Rainbow
Razor Yaqi SE Katana
Blade Tatra Platinum Half-blade 2nd use
Post & Aftershaves Ice Water + Thayers + Hyaluronic + Clubman WhiskyWood
Wow...!! Super nice tobacco(vanilla) scent and aroma with this soap. Even my wife says so. Creamily slick too... totally enjoyed the lather! Finally, able to get another great tobacco scent after Cavendish (2 other tobacco soaps were a dud)
Shave with the new SE razor paired with the blade was just acceptable. Smooth and comfortable for 3passes except for the atg on chin and lips area. In general, not efficient enough. Only able to get a SAS result. Positive was no nicks or weepers. Gotta try a sharper blade. Mmmmm...can still smell the soap scent faintly 2 hours later...nice! Rating 9/10

Pre-Shave: Cold water splash - OPR Bay Rum shave soap
Soap: Captain's Choice 45th Parallel Shave Cream
Brush: Semogue Pharos synthetic
Razor: Charcoal Goods SS SB LvL2
Blade: Personna Lab Blue (3)
Post-Shave: Cold water splash - Bay Rum scented Witch Hazel - Lucky Tiger Face Tonic
AS: Bootlegger's Bay Rum
Day three with the Charcoal Goods SS SB LvL2. The shave was very good. I had two weepers on my lower neck. I know this was because of the aggressiveness of the razor. Have to admit that to myself. In my mind, this still doesn't rule out the possibility of using the CG LvL2 every day. It's just a fact I have to deal with...perhaps some more care during the process could reel this in. Trying to use up the Captain's Choice 45th Parallel cream. Not much left. I'm also going to be using Barrister and Mann Bay Rum off and on with the 45th Parallel until both are finished.
Happy Shaves, Everyone.

The best shave yet with my recently acquired MMOC. It was BBS all over with no nicks, cuts or irritation. I'm really getting to like using this razor and plan on keeping it in regular rotation.
