Sotd - Sunday afternoon - 1/4/18
Pre - shower/ Puig Agua Lavanda soap
razor - Cobra Classic
blade - Schick Proline (4)
brush - Chubby 1 best
soap - Salter lavender tallow
post - witch hazel
a/s - Myrsol Agua Balsamica
balm - Bart's lavender lotion
scent - Caldey Island lavender.
Result - great -
Not shaved for four or five days I think - the last one didn't involve any lavender products - so by today I was proper jangling - walking on balloons - I needed just a wee touch of the real thing - just to straighten me out - I can handle it - I'm in control. You know me guys - I'm good for the money - just give me a few more days...... Ha ha ha. After a comment by @Blademonkey concerning the Salter - you're right P. - it doesn't seem to make the blindest bit of difference whether you bloom the puck or not. Works a treat for me either way. A great shave - but with ingredients of this quality I would expect nothing less. Mention made of the Caron Pour Un Homme earlier - a scent that has been recommended to me but I haven't tried yet - as being basically lavender with a vanilla base - the Caldey Island is lavender with a musk underpinning - maybe not a world apart. I really like the Caldey on me - masculine - a long way from what you might expect a lavender scent to smell like. A word of warning though - it makes kittens sneeze. Thanks @Wayne Pritchard for enabling me on the scent. Assuming he's made it out the jacuzzi to read this - enjoy your shaves one and all - best regards - I.
