SOTD: Saturday 21 - Friday 27 September 2024.

My SotDs have all gone a bit awry, but this was Saturday. Since this I've been getting in some SEptember action but not remembered to take pics.

Freudian maybe, or the Matrix, but look at the last few posts, clear bottle of blue or Brown aftershave. ?

Shave of the Holidays… for the last two weeks.

Razor- Gillette Pro Glide
Brush - Muhle travel brush
Lather - LEA stick

As always, excellent performance from the brush and soap. Dead easy to get a good shave from the cartridge… don’t even get much irritation any more. What I miss with it, however, is the finer degree of control… like driving an automatic car rather than a manual. Seriously considering using my Timor as a holiday razor next time.

All good, though, back to DE this afternoon.

Cold water shave
Preshave: Proraso Sensitive Preshave Cream
Shaving: Executive Shaving Bay Rum Shaving Cream
Brush: Sagrada Familia
Razor: Merkur 37c

My Shave today consisted of...
Prep 3P Pre shavecream.
Brush Omega Italian flag Boar.
Soap Martin de Candre Agrumes.
Razors Leaf & Blackland Vector.
Blade Nacet & Feather Pro Super (1).
Post shave St johns Bay Rum cooooorrr.
Aftershave Czech and Speake Amber 7.

I have not shaven for a couple of days because I have somehow managed to catch the Flu.
To clear the tramp like stubble I opted for my Vector,it's felt like an age since I have used it.

The MdC seems to be my soap of choice at the moment, I'm not sure why but it delivers with any type brush and it's a breeze to lather.

The scent is very subtle though, I really wish it would punch me in the face and it would be a solid 10/10.
My Shave with the Vector was just wow, top notch, amazing.

Once again I sit here rubbing my face all over and really don't understand why I keep buying more razors, it just doesn't get any better than this, for me anyway.

Casing point I did my usual and asked the wife how was my shave and she said wow its really smooth today.

I now look heavenly and smell so good strange sexy women are throwing their knickers at me with their phone numbers written on them.


Arr the struggle is real being so blooming good looking but hey I somehow soldier on.

Anyway here is a little shout out to our friend @Satanfriendly

I know how much he loves to admire my S.O.T.D posts.
Here’s a song just for you sir.

Or will he be ....

Ha ha
Anyway enjoy the day everyone, toodles.

Razor - Timor
Blade - Personna Platinum
Brush - Simpson M6
Lather - TOBS Sandalwood cream

Lovely return to DE shaving after two weeks of holiday shaving with a cartridge. Three passes and a cheeky touch-up reminded me of what I’ve been missing. I thought I did OK with the cartridge, but now I’m sitting here post-shave I’m definitely not getting that “just flayed” feeling.

The TOBS Sandalwood was the first cream/soap I ever bought to use with a brush. There’s still something about the smell of it that makes me think I’m having a proper shave.
