SOTD 12.23.14

55dougie Cobalt D7 with TGN Finest Badger set @ 28x50mm, Franken Razor with Astra blade, Mystic Waters SS Unscented, Unrefined Shea Butter


Notes: My D7 is a "Sister brush" to the one I made for celestino. The Franken Razor is my second favorite only to my Weber DLC. The Franken consists of a; Hallmark gold cap, Fatip OC blade plate and a Stealth RR Stainless Steel handle. Lately, I have been enjoying a couple of the Mystic Waters shave soaps and they have been wonderful. There will be more in my shave den soon. New to me is the Unrefined Shea Butter, applied to my face and neck is a nice finish to a smooth and moisturizing shave.

Water and soap :: Myrsol, emulsión :: Czech & Speake 88 :: Rubberset 400-4 :: Tradere SB, astra :: Myrsol, plastic shave :: Bulldog


https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-...AAAADWk/hm9O9jAJngU/w640-h480-no/IMG_2434.JPG​

Charming scent the one given by C&S 88, a super easy soap to be lathered. This is one of my preferred soaps. As for the Tradere, this is a beautiful razor that gives close shaves.


Bye!
