S.O.T.D - Saturday 6th September to Friday 12th September

Pre: Proraso green pre-shave cream
Soap: Acqua di Parma
Brush: Simpson's M6 TSN-LE, 22mm 2-band Manchurian
Razor: Merkur Futur
Blade: Gillette 7 O'Clock SP black (1)
Post: Thayer's witch hazel, followed by Penhaligon's Opus 1870

Brilliant shave this morning.
I set the Futur at '3' and could have stopped after 2 passes with a DFS but instead I dialed it back to '2' and pushed it to a BBS on the 3rd pass (XTG buffing).
AdP smells amazing and Opus 1870 is a big hit with SWMBO and the office.

I fancied a cartridge shave after a long day at work. Great result. The lather was particularly good - Darron makes an excellent product and Thäter knots are sublime.

Tons of lather when the TGN 2-band knot went to work on Haslinger's soap. Thick, protective and comfortable.

Tuesday ix September, 2014

Prep: Hot shower, Zirh Alpha - Hydroxy Face Wash
Pre: Cold Water Splash
Soap: Jabonman Neroli - Menta - Pomela
Brush: Thäter 4125/2
Razor: Timor 1350K Open Comb
Blade: Gillette Nacet #4
Post: Myrsol Blue, Kiehl's Ultimate After Shave Balm
Fragrance: Knize Forest Toilet Water

Result: Luv-er-ly..... but the end of the road for the Nacet. I don't usually extend a blade to four shaves, but this one was fine yesterday. What to slip in tomorrow, that's the question.

All the best

Felt the need for something mild today after drawing a bit of blood in a rushed shave with an OCMM and Noxzema foam yesterday. Mild razor and a sharp blade gave a nice easy shave with a good result.
