SOTD Saturday 7 February - Friday 13 February 2026

[Ghostbuster]

Pre shave: Hot shower and Neutrogena glycerin soap bar.
Razor: 1958 Gillette TV special super speed.
Blade: Feather (2).
Brush: Yaqi 26mm Bluish Violet synthetic.
Soap: Stirling Margaritas in the arctic.
Post shave: Nivea men sensitive cool post shave balm.

A nice soothing shave this afternoon.

I've had this margs sample for quite a while and it's dwindling so I think I'll have to replace it with a full tub and some matching balm, soon.
It's such a great fresh scent with a nice amount of menthol.

The lack of blade feel on this razor is going to take some getting used to, but it's a very enjoyable, efficient shaver.
Cut through 3 days of growth with no trouble.

have a good'n, everyone.
