SOTD – Sun 30 April 2023
Mostly Proraso Green shave


SOTD-20230430-setup.jpg


Shave Result: Proraso needs no real introduction, it’s a Coconut Oil based budget friendly soap that provided a creamy medium density lather with great primary slickness but the residual can dry a bit so I made use of a wet hand to keep it moist. To my nose the scent is a pleasant refreshing scent that reminds me of spearmint chewing gum, scent strength is medium 5/10. Awesome smooth irritation free BBS with the Yaqi Raster.

The Gear:​

  • Pre Shave: Proraso Green Pre-Barba Cream
  • Brush: Semogue 1305 Premium 22/55 Boar knot
  • Soap: Proraso - Eucalyptus & Menthol (Green)
  • Bowl: Yaqi Blue-green ceramic “Duke”
  • Razor: Yaqi Raster SE with Midas AL Handle
  • Blade: Feather ProGuard AC (2)
  • Astringent Splash: TN Dickinsons Witch Hazel with Menthol & T.Tree oil
  • Balm: Proraso Green Pre-Barba Cream
  • Scented After Shave: Proraso Green AS
  • Moisturiser: Nivea Men Creme (Face-Body-Hands)

COTD: nothing to write home about... :rolleyes:

My travel setup. @Holiday might just about recognise this hotel room view. Not quite what I booked, but booking.com sometimes pulls a swifty, and I wasn't paying enough attention. :rolleyes: I'd suggest catching up, but we have some time constraints...
