Shave of the Day Thread - 2019

[Razor Burn]

Just my thing, nothing 'official'

Makes perfect sense and don't be surprised if I join you in dedicating my April shaves to the APR collection

Pre-Shave Shower
Brush Mühle - 35K252
Soap PAA CK-6 CaD
Razor Mühle - R89
Blade Feather (7)
Post shave Geo F. Trumper - Coral Skin Food
Fragrance Hugo Boss - Number One

Second time I have tried the PAA CK-6 CaD, not much is needed for a great cushiony lather with phenomenal glide!
It will take a lot of water, face lathers easy. Bowl latherers should love it as well.
Good old time fragrance to it as well.

Two passes and some touch ups for a BBS shave.

Date: 05 January 2019

Pre-shave:- Cold Water straight from the tap
Brush:- Omega 10104 Boar 26/55mm knot
Soap/Cream:- Stirling ~ Bergamot Lavender
Bowl/Scuttle:- Captain's Choice
Razor/Blade:- Gillette Ball End Tech K2 1965 / Vintage NOS Gillette Super Stainless (spoiler) #1
Post-shave:- Thayers Witch Hazel & Tea Tree Oil / WAHL Bay Rum Aftershave Splash
Fragrance:- Davidoff Cool Water Wave

The British none triangle Tech is slightly more aggressive than the US triangle Tech version which surprises me a lot. Some wet shavers say the British Gillette razors are slightly more aggressive than most US Gillette razors, I'm unable to confirm or find the correct information on the world wide web.

Not a bad shave with the Muhle today. Few bits of blood but the styptic did it’s thing.

This was the only sample of the SV Dolomiti aftershave and I don’t think I’d buy a full bottle. To me, I thought I was applying fly spray scented balm. I have one more sample to go, the Alpina Stella. In my mind I hope this smells similar to Speick.
