Greetings,

(Face & head Shave.)

A new shave set up to start the weekend...It's been a while since i last added the fine fresh vetiver soap to my soap rotation ..The soap doesn't have a strong scent, which isn't a big issue for me personally, but it's lathering performance & post shave feel are wonderful.

A close comfortable face and head shave from the Supply V2 injector razor with no errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a few small squirts of Milton Lloyd The Man EdT to the chest & pulse points.

My face & precious swede are feeling silky smooth & smelling divine. ;)

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen. :cool:

This is the second time i have had the V2 in the Den, thanks to Olvin @ob21.
Fitted with the 2 Dot plate and a new Personna i was ready to go on this Typical Lakes Morning.
The new Boar whipped up the Signature soaps very easily, and already feels pretty good on the face, the water is a lot softer here compared to home, the scent being right up my street and a wonderful change to that "Green Gunk" i have been using up this past month.
All hail @BrianH
2 smooth as silk passes and some touch up on the whirlpools for a very nice finish.
The journey across yesterday was a bit of a mare due to traffic issues, although, with a bit patience and a steady away outlook using back roads we got here safely.
Anyway, market day today.
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.

Would that be Keswick market Tony?
If so, the Wetherspoons, The Chief Justice Of The Common Pleas is worth a visit for some local ale and a bite to eat.

Yes Paul, Keswick,
Sadly, I think that is the only establishment in this little town that is NOT dog friendly, that includes shops, hotels and other eateries, we are in the centre surrounded by the Wainwright, the Dog n Gun, the George Hotel and the Banks Tavern, all of which will be receiving a visit from my little clan.
And, of course, some Ale sampling;)

The soap lather was good enough but the scent is better and together with the matching splash...wow!!
Use this blade in the vintage razor and boy, what a good pairing. 3 easy comfortable and very efficient passes later...no blood and a dolphin smooth finish! Excellent shave today!!

Razor: Koraat 6/8 Ebony
Post: NO Monoi De Tahiti AS

Wonderful shave this morning, nice relaxing effort. A little out of practice as I've been neglecting the SR's but by the second pass I was back into the swing. I'll pick out another for tomorrow, possibly one of the Friodurs but I may need to give it a refresh tonight before use, we shall see. Smooth refreshed and looking forward to the day!

Hope everyone has a good one!

Cheers

SOTD

Pre: Hot Shower
Razor: Rockwell 6S (4/4/2)
Blade: Gillette Nacet (3)
Brush: Simpson Trafalgar T3
Soap: Lothur Floraphobia
Post: Cold Water Rinse
A/S: Lothur Floraphobia
Balm: Lothur Grooming Moisuriser

Brilliant shave using this set up. Floraphobia is one of the best summer scents I've used. The woody based notes mixed in with the powdey iris notes and the orange flower give this a very well blended, unique scent, perfect for those warm days when you fancy a lovely floral(ish) soap. The 6S paired with a Gillette Nacet is a match made in heaven. Enjoy your weekend
