SOTD JUNE 14

Prep-hot shower
Soap-VdH Select
Brush-Semogue 1470 Boar
Razor-'68 Lady Gillette
Blade-Derby Extra(3)
Post-Aqua Velva Musk AS

$100_1817.JPG

Excellent shave. The Derby started out tuggy and grabby, but I guess the third time's the charm, as it was nice and smooth, and gave a close, comfortable shave with very little irritation.
The VdH Select surprised me with loads of nice, fat lather. Literally exploded out of the bowl. The pic was taken after a three pass shave. Loads of lather left. The Semogue did not hurt, either. I spent an hour today burning through that puck of VdH Select, breaking it in. Very nice.
Have a great shave, everyone!
