20171023_151120-jpg.19350


A very special SOTD post for me. It was my Sister's Wedding yesterday. The day went without a hitch and a fantastic day was enjoyed by all. I'm feeling a tad delicate and sore today. My feet are killing me. I blame those bloody Bee Gees!

Prep: Hot shower, Loreal Charcoal face wash and Saponificio Varesino Manna di Sicilian bath soap
Razor: ATT S2
Razor blade: Polsilver
Brush: Saponificio Varesino
Bowl: Little Wren Pottery
Soap: Saponificio Varesino Tundra Artica
Post: L'Occitane Cade aftershave balm (sample)
EDP: Guerlain Heritage

Music was an integral part of their big day and I'll leave you with the TUNE(!) they had for their first dance..

Cheers
Rob

Tis a long time since my last post but I thought it about time.

I have been proper shaving for about a year now and I have found that despite having a number of brushes, razors, and blades I have come to the rather unscientific discovery. I have levitated to my original razor, brush and blade and today used one of my original soaps

Razor - DE89
Blade - Personna
Brush - Synthetic
Soap - Proraso Green

Opinion - ruddy brilliant shave, still love the feeling that Proraso green gives during and post shave
