Notes:here.
​

Vintage Paul Drees Straight from the 50's-70's and Gillette Slim TTO from 1967, my birthyear. Does that mean I am ventage? Sheesh.

Third Straight razor shave today. Today's shave was a tad more irritation, I believe due to overly aggressive ATG passes with the DE after my SR passes. I tend to be hyped up after the Straight Razor passes. The scent for the day is based on Yardley Black Lable. A good one.

I wish everyone a blessed Monday, may all your shaves be BBS, nick, and weeper free.

[Lil Cooties]

Razor: Gillette English Flat Bottom Tech
Blade: Gillette 7o'clock Super Platinum Black (5th use)
Brush: Omega 10810
Preshave: Proraso Green
Shaving Cream: Sanofi Shave (formerly Fauldings)
Aftershave: Natio Calming Aftershave Balm
Eau De Cologne: Agua Lavanda Puig

The Shave is an odd product, you need to use a lot of it but it doesn't like a lot of water and I find it tends to dry on my face. I had to top off my brush with more cream for the last pass. A bit of irritation, mostly due to my poor lather, but I think the blade was getting a little dull too. I do enjoy the 7o'clock black though, it's a good blade. The smell of the Shave went great with the Agua Lavanda Puig.
