Hello friends
A slightly milder day. Today, I chose MdC Vetiver, SOC Mistura, Lupo 95 SB with the RazoRock Vintage Thin Bar Handle and continued with the Gillette Nacet (3). An impeccable shave! I finished with the delicious Malizia Uomo and Tom Ford Grey Vetiver.

Nice shave, very close. Started setting 5, and then setting 3, which I think was a little too mild for ATG as I think I went over the same spot too many time and caused some irritation, ended up putting it back to 5 and caught those stubborn patches, setting 4-5 seems to be the sweet spot for me.

Pretty good shave. I quit when I started chasing it. The new soap performed well and smelled much better once it got wet. Also my first experience with menthol. That was fun. I may not reach for Cannonball a lot, but I will keep it on hand. The blade was not as good as last time, but I don’t know what to attribute that to. I will give it a 3rd run before tossing.

Greetings,
Early morning shave,
Ever since I've used blue's goat milk soap, the outcome of the shave is always good, today was no exception, this Chinese made soap doesn't have much scent but it's performance, & post shave feel are very good.
A close comfortable 2 pass + pick ups silky smooth shave with no errors to report.
Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Bulldog Original Moisturiser.
