FRIDAY A.M.
PRE: QED French Red Clay face soap
SHAVE SOAP: Haslinger Marigold
SHAVE BRUSH: Boar brush set in custom handle
RAZOR: EJ DE 89 with Personna Medical Prep blade
POST SHAVE: Thai crystal deo stick ... Mennen Skin Bracer... Clinique Post Shave Healer
With just two passes, and touch ups, especially on the chin, quite a nice shave. Although the Haslinger soap isn't
my first and favorite, today's shave was a great reminder that if it were THE only shave soap available, I wouldn't
suffer at all; it consistently and easily provides one great shave after another! And at about $10 for a smallish
puck, it would never break the bank!
Enjoying wet shaving, again.
