Hot shower prep with Old Spice Swagger body wash

The hot shower felt good with the damp chill you to the bone weather. I thought the Old Spice was gone but it has at least one more shave. I laid it on and did two passes and touch ups. I'm ready to head into the weekend. Good luck and good hunting!

Pre shave: Hot shower and Neutrogena glycerin soap bar
Razor: 1960 Gillette 195 Adjustable (7)
Blade: Feather (3)
Bowl: Arran Stone
Brush: Yaqi Sigrada Familia 24mm synthetic
Soap: Stirling Coniferous
Post shave: Stirling Coniferous aftershave splash

Bringing FatBeauty out for another Fatboy Friday, this time with a new soap and splash aet.
A wonderfully smooth 3 pass shave, this evening as I prepare for a busy weekend.

They really weren't kidding with the description of this soap scent.
Opening the jar, you're immediately smashed in the nose with a strong pine sap scent and I was worried for a second I'd end up smelling like a magic tree car air freshener.

But like a lot of soaps, you don't get the full scent until you build a lather.

With coniferous once you start to lather, it transforms into a complex array of evergreen and woody scent notes which left my bathroom smelling as if it'd been transported to an evergreen Forrest.
And made me feel like I was tagging along on the thearch for a tree ath a thymbol for the thpirit of the Grithwold family Chrithmath.

As usual with Stirling, it took plenty of water and made for excellent glide and cushion.

I finished off with the matching aftershave splash.
Normally I'd go with a balm but it was unavailable and although I already have multiple Stirling products, this is my first experience of their splashes.
Thankfully it was very pleasant, not so much as a burn as a very brief initial sting followed by a soothing sensation which quickly left the skin feeling calmed and soft.

Hope you all have great shaves and an equally great weekend!

Feeling a bit grim today so the shave was a little hit and miss. I think this Permasharp is a #3 and it's performing better than I remember having not used one in ages. I do like an open comb razor and this Merkur is a winner. Gentle and efficient.

Enjoy your weekend...
