Brush - Omega, Evo 2
Moisturiser - Nivea
Splash - B&M,

After spending about three weeks playing with the Blackland Sabre. The Merica Ti seemed to float over the skin. Smooth and deceivingly efficient, which resulted with a few weeps.

I'll try and get around to doing a back to back comparison with the steel Merica soon.

Saturday 29th July

Soap • Stirling Orange Chill
Brush • Yaqi Moka Express
Razor • Razorock GC Jaws .84
Blade • Gillette Silver Blue (3)
Post • Stirling Orange Chill Splash



I'm a few shaves in with this Game Changer open comb. I feel it's a touch too assertive for my tastes. It's by no means overly aggressive, rather that I prefer a milder shave.
That said, I'm on the look out for a trade with the straight bar variant, of which I stupidly sold on a few years ago - silly me . . .

Enjoy the remainder of the weekend everyone.

David, how you like the SET?

Another winning scent choice from yourself, Luis, and Manuel's latest tallow base is up there with the best.
The citrus forward scent is right up my alley.
The new serum is closer to a balm than the oily versions of other brands and dries to a totally greasy-free finish. Scent on this is more wood forward.
I haven't used or bought anything from Manuel for a long time. A very satisfying way to return.

It took a long time, as I’m so out of practice with the Tedalus but I got there in the end and I’m very smooth despite a few little cuts.
