-- Wednesday--

Prep: hot water wash with hand soap
Razor: RazoRock OC with Ikon Bulldog
Blade: Derby (2)
Brush: Stanley Home Products restored with Omega boar from TGN
Soap: PannaCrema Namaste
Scuttle: Georgetown Pottery G5 in Hamada glaze
Post: Thai Crystal deodorant stick and Thayers Witch Hazel with Aloe

Result: BBS in 3+ passes. Amazingly good shave. I really love PannaCrema. Namaste scent is growing on me. I am actually liking it now that it associates with an outstanding lather. I am also continuing to be impressed with Derby blade. This is the second shave on it loaded into RR OC head and it's excellent! I really didn't like it when I first started DE shaving, but then I loaded it into the only razor I had, EJ DE89 and it just felt rough and kind of ineffective. Loaded into the RR OC it's very smooth and effective. I will try my Dorco ST-300 in the RR OC next, I think. I am getting some of the best shaves with RR OC and mild blades, go figure.
