Sunday morning:
L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Canadian Tech/Wilkinson Sword day 5
Mickey Lee Paradise Frost SS
Nip Man ASB
Folsom & Company Black Powder AS Splash
This morning I selected some stuff that I haven’t used in a long time - for example the Paradise Frost soap. This soap is tallow based, the lather is so good, it’s quite slick, the scent is lovely - it’s a very citrusy type with grapefruit notes which give a good refreshing effect, and it’s got a bit of a menthol sensation as well as pretty good skincare. The Nip Man balm is something else which I haven’t used for some time so I enjoyed it very much today - it’s so soothing, cooling, as well as moisturizing. Finally, the Black Powder aftershave from Folsom & Company went on icy cold along with its beautiful, long lasting scent. I got up relatively late so I only did two passes but I still managed to get a great shave!
Enjoy your Sunday - be well and safe!

Sunday July 24 - sort of patriotic, ethnic heritage shave
Razor: Supply 2.0 matte black with SE comb plate / Supply Black Label (14) -- American razor / Japanese blade
Brush: Semogue SOC cherrywood badger refitted with APShaveCo Tuxedo synthetic knot -- Portuguese/Canadian
Soap: MWF -- English and I believe northern English at that (my mother's family came from both sides of the Scottish Border)
Post: Osma alum block (French); Polar Ice Booster -- uhmmm... generic multi-national commercial conglomerate??
All the usual suspects from my recent shaves returned -- just with claimed "ethnic/national heritage" attached.
My last shave was on Tuesday morning, so I had five-day stubble. One quick pass resulted in a Socially Acceptable Shave -- cleanshaven with no visible shadow.
The blade is still fine, so I may get more than 15 shaves out of it after all. Injector blades are thicker and longer-lasting than DE blades of course, but that is still pretty good.
Hope everyone has a good Sunday leading into an excellent week!
