SOTD 24 March 2015
Have a nice shave and a fantastic to everyone from rainy Italy!
Today my version of shaving on budget.
When I want to go on budget I usually go for italian soaps.
And that's tell me how much we are lucky here, because we have many Italian products that are cheap and very good.
Today my eternal favorite all green combo. Comfortable and fresh shave like none.
In Italy Proraso and Omega are cheap (but always damn good
) and the excellent Universal shavette too!
So this is the baseline for a shaving on a budget. Using an italian (now only the name...) good blade and voilà!
Cheap and Italian. But excellent shave for far less than $30 at today change.
Pre: 1 min Hot rinse,clean with home made soap and Proraso Green Pre Cream
Brush: Omega Proraso
Razor: Universal Shavette h/blade
Blade: Bolzano Superinox (1)
Soap: Proraso Green
AS: Proraso Green Splash and Cream
Music: Pino Daniele - Nero a Meta
EDT: Armani Ice Code
Now still want to go for a step above?
Just add one or more of the following cheap shaving aids...
I did it. And we are still well under $50, and except blades I estimate that this will last very long!
