SOTD Thursday 6 June

  • Razor - Gillette British Rocket FlareTip
  • Blade - Shark – Super Stainless
  • Pre-Shave - Pears soap
  • Brush - Omega Pro 48 Boar
  • Cream - Proraso – Wood and Spice
  • Post Shave - Nivea Moisturizer
  • Aftershave - Gillette Splash
  • Balm - Nivea – Sensitive Balm

The Morning Shave.

I was fortunate to receive a Blade PIF with a selection of 22 DE Blades. This is a great opportunity to try different blades.

I enjoyed the Shark blade, different feel not too sharp like a feather, however very comfortable. No irritation or drag. 0 nicks.

The Omega Pro 48 is new, breaking is quite quickly. Great soft feel with plenty of back bone. Great lather from the Proraso and a great scent from the Wood & Spice.

maaaate u can scream that crap from the hilltops I still love the tabac, as does the missus 👌
Now I understand why you've been away at the hilltops hiding, with your favourite Tabac and your marriage lasting longer by listing to your grandma. KEEP USING TABAC!

What for? You've got buckets of Moos, what are you whining about?
Should've gotten the P&C LE 2020 Matilda brush, but, I didn't and I bald out. :banghead:
Also, I couldn't order the Sir Irisch Moos EDT. I wasn't sure this might smell great on me.

Shave Report: The Whispers soap is an excellent vegetal performer that is a bit underrated. For me the scent smells like I just walked into a Asian/India discount store with the Sandalwood, Asian floral and Spicy aroma, scent strength 6/10. Lovely clean, smooth DFS from the 1950 Tech.

The Gear:​

  • Pre Shave: Tricare Goats Milk Bar Soap (ALDI) [A]
  • Brush: Frank Shaving “Bone Head” with 23/54 Special Best Badger knot
  • Soap: Whispers From The Woods - Hippie Blend [A]
  • Bowl: Whispers From The Woods [A]
  • Razor: Gillette Fat Handle Tech (1950 ish)
  • Blade: Silver Star SS by Lord (1)
  • Astringent: Jennai Body Care - Aloe Vera Gel with Witch Hazel & Vitamin E [A]
  • Balm: G&M Australian Creams - Emu Oil MkII [A]
  • After Shave: Malizia UOMO Vetyver AS Lotion
  • Moisturiser (Later): MooGoo Natural Full Cream - Hydrate [A]
