Semogue Owners Club \\ Muhle R89 w/ Red IP \\ Proraso Crema Pre E Dopo Barba \\ Martin De Candre \\ Proraso Crema Liquida Dopobarba
So to clear up anything I did not buy a brand new Muhle razor that uses same head as my EJ. This is the same attachment I use from my BChrome. A generous B&B member sold there R41 handle to me b/c i've always liked it. I used to have an R41 but sold it off. But before I did, I swapped the handles with my EJ and it just sang. I'm happy to just have an extra handle and not the razor head not being used lol. Also I've had my SOC for 2 years. It is fully broken in and don't reach for it as much due to a lot less backbone. Anyways, enough from me. I hope you all have an Excellent Start of the Week!

Monday Morning Sandalwood Bomb
Blend of Geo. F. Trumper Sandalwood SS + TOBS Sandalwood Cream
Tweezerman
Georgetown G5 Scuttle
Gillette Gold Ball-End Tech
Astra SP (5)
Alum block
GFT Sandalwood Cologne
Very pleasant shave with tons of great lather. Probably one of my favorite blending combinations. BBS in 3 passes. I have noticed that when I blend, I end up with so much long-lasting lather that I am taking the time to enjoy a 3rd or even 4th pass.

Because I've been getting up so late and not prepping correctly, I decided to do a quick face wash. I think it really helped prepare my skin for the blade. I have a very close to BBS shave thanks to MWF and the fact for the first time, I added soap in the middle of the second pass because I didn't load enough. Still a great shave and I love the Alt-Innsbruck scent!
Have a great day Gents!
