-- Wednesday, August 27--

Prep: Face wash with bath soap and water
Razor: 1922 Gillette Big Fellow with New Improved head
Blade: Bolzano Superinox (4)
Brush: Semogue BC LE Cerda (#67/100)
Soap: Petal Pusher Fancies Oakmoss and Sage
Scuttle: None
Post: Thai Crystal deodorant alum stick and Thayers's witch hazel

Image

Result: BBS in 3+ passes. Been shaving every three days or so because of the summer heat and humidity. Great shave today. Petal Pusher Fancies soaps are awesome and Oakmoss and Sage is one of my favorites. Very subtle scent, but amazingly refreshing.

28/08/2014 -- Vintage Velva Juice

• Razor • GEM Clog Pruf
• Blade • GEM SS PTFE (1)
• Brush • Plisson Acetate Pearly Gray Synth
• Soap • MdC Fougère (66)
• AS • Vintage Aqua Velva Ice Blue

Loved everything about this shave. The glass bottle for the AV makes a huge difference to me. It's hard to see but the glass is textured. Also, the scent seems more complex but not sure if it's entirely different. Possibly just aged well. The skincare did seem better to me though. The flow restrictor is also much better in the glass vs the plastic version.
