Re: SOTD January 28 - February 2
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON
PRE: QED French Red Clay facial soap
SHAVE SOAP: Haslinger Sheeps Milk
BRUSH: Simpson Duke 2 Best
RAZOR: Gem G Bar, Gem PTFE SS Blade (4)
POST: Crystal alum deo stick as astringent...... Clubman Eau de Portugal tonic as A/S........ Clinique for Men Post Shave Healer
The Haslinger favors a bit of water and the Duke 2 (hasn't been used in over a year) gladly obliged. Forgot how small in my hand the Duke 2 really is. May have
to try the Duke 3 one of these days. Nonetheless a comfortable shave in 2 1/2 passes, but probably could have used a bit more buffing around the jaw and neck
under the ears. Like MWF, the Sheeps Milk seems to want you to treat it a bit differently.... a tad more water than most and a bit more loading off the puck. No
big deal and your efforts are rewarded with rich full lather; plenty for 2 1/2 passes and extra to shave the back of the neck between haircuts.
