366 shaves in 2024
Shave#349 of 366 remaining 17(100%)
SV Saturday

Razor:
RR Lupo 95 SB
Blade: Personna Comfort Coated (2)
Brush: Muhle Kosmo STF
Soap: SV Desert Vetiver
Post Shave: Nivea Hyaluron Creme
A/S: Davidoff Cool Water

Last night for SV Saturday it was the turn of Desert Vetiver and I decided to use the Kosmo as I hadn't heard used it in a while. The blade did not perform too well on its first shave with the Rocca so I tried it with the Lupo. The shave was closer, but still no BBS so I'm not sure if I will get a BBS with this blade, but any shave where I use SV is a win for me.

366 shaves in 2024
Shave#350 of 366 remaining 16(100%)

Razor:
Muhle Rocca R94
Blade: Personna Comfort Coated (1)
Brush: Simpsons Trafalgar T3
Soap: Proraso Red
Post Shave: Nivea Hyaluron Creme
A/S: Davidoff Cool Water

Tonight I had an accident with my blade which I dropped on the bathroom floor, that meant I had to bin it and start a new one. Lathering the last of the Proraso beans I got plenty of lather, but it was very airy though I lathered every bean of soap. Once again the shave didn't deliver a BBS, but it did deliver an end to the Proraso Red, my 9th kill of the year leading me on to my 10th soap, a tub of TOBS Sandalwood cream that is more croap than cream.

Sunday 15th December, shave #350

Preshave: Hot washcloth
Soap: Palmolive Stick, made into a puck
Brush: Yaqi 24mm synthetic cashmere
Razor: GC1.05 SB, Al Handle, Astra SP #3
Bowl: Turkish copper
Post-shave: Nivea Balm

Palmolive day again. I always get a super-slick lather with this stuff. I tried a new angle that might be closer to the true ATG under my chin. Another easy near-BBS result.
