~SOTD~

Up with the sunrise this morning.

Prep ~ Luke warm shower, Valbora Glicerlanolina soap
Razor ~ Blackland ~ Sabre L2
Blade ~ Gem Blue Star ( carbon steel )
Soap ~ Old Spice ~ Shulton
Brush ~ Brad Sears - Gonzo, Silvertip
Post ~ Old Spice - Shulton
Scent ~ Spicebomb Extreme ~ Viktor&Rolf

It's been a while since I had an Old Spice morning and I'm pleased I did, a sumptuous lather was whipped up with the aid of Gonzo, my Brad Sears Silvertip.
It's also been a while since Ive laid hands on my Sabre, it felt good to be holding such a wepon of beard distruction , this time fitted out with a Gem Blue Star blade, I like these blades even though they don't give as many shaves as a Gem Stainless.
Three passes latter was smooth skinned and very happy with the shave that had just taken place.
I'm still shaving with cold water and I'm not missing my hot water, I find it quite refreshing but not as refreshing as a splash of Old Spice Aftershave, a great smell and for me it's like being in a time machine and I've been taken back to the 70s and I can smell my Dads Old Spice everywhere!
I thought to complement the OS I would give myself a good body spray of Spicebomb Exterme, just the ticket!
Looking good and smelling fantastic! :) P

I hope your day is a good one....P.

Very hot in Sweden right now and it's terrible to spend all day in the office. At least some Margaritas (in the Arctic) early in the morning makes for a cool and fresh start.

The Dark Lord of Wet Shaving
Date: 11 July 2018

Pre-shave:- Cold Water straight from the tap
Brush:- RazoRock Plissoft Synth. 24/57mm knot
Soap/Cream:- Ariana & Evans ~ Asian Plum
Razor/Blade:- Merkur 38C / Rapira Super Stainless #4
Post-shave:- Thayers Witch Hazel & Tea Tree Oil / Lucky Tiger Aftershave & Face Tonic / Lucky Tiger Face Moisturizer
Fragrance:- N/A

WOW, I love the smell of Ariana & Evans Asian Plum is not very strong or overpowering scent and it smells very relaxing kinda like a Chocolate Spice Plum pudding to my nose, I didn't know the soap has Goats Milk and the soap has given my face a wonderful soft smooth and excellent post shave feel.
