S.O.T.D. Saturday 4th June to Friday 10th June 2016

Sunflower Oil (cooking type)
Arko Stick
Bestshave.net no 6
Merkur 33c
Kai Stainless
Alum Stone
Shea Butter

I found that the Sunflower Oil seemed to have a drying effect upon the Arko soap - leaving less moisture on the face. I doubt I'll use it again.

You need to add i.e. 5-10% Castor Oil, so that the oil remains on the skin and to avoid instant absorption. Also would rather prefer almond/cocos Oil over sunflower oil...


Cheers, Olaf

A most pleasurable shave this morning with my PAL Adjustable razor. This is a very aggressive razor but when used correctly provides flawlessly smooth shaves. My buddy Mike makes a wonderful homemade shave soap which provides plentiful rich, creamy, slick lather. Three passes for a dolphin smooth finish. Enjoy your weekend friends.
