WEDNESDAY A.M.
PRE: QED French Red Clay face soap
SHAVE SOAP: AoS Unscented tallow
BRUSH: Somerset Simpson Duke 2, Best
RAZOR/BLADE Gem MM Clog-Pruf with Gem SS PTFE SS (1)
POST SHAVE Crystal alum deo stick as an astringent .... styptic powder.... Clubman Eau de Portugal as A/S .... Simpson AS Balm
Used a bit too much water u to whip up today's lather but the results weren't compromised. Did manage to inflict a nasty cut on
the edge of my nose, requiring a sizable amount of styptic powder to stem the bleeding. The rest of the shave was really darn
good...quite close, even along my usual jawline trouble spot. The Clog-Pruf is proving to be a more aggressive than its Gem Push
Button cousin, and far noisier too. Difficult to evaluate the Simpson ASB yet.
Enjoying wet shaving, again.
