Saturday, June thirteenth's Shave Of The Day was meh...

PreShave: nothing(duh us)
Lather Gear: Yaqi 24mm Mountain Lake whipped up St James of London Sandalwood&Bergamot Cream in Captain's Choice Aquamarine
Razors&Blades: Shavette loaded with Perma-Sharp 1 buffing WTG cheeks and neck... 1974 Gillette Super Adjustable loaded with Wilkinson Sword 1 Buffing WTG(5) around the maw and a trouble spot
AfterShave Gear: Warmish Shower with Stirling's Light-ish Red bath soap then St James of London Lavender&Geranium Sensitive PSG

didn't realize it was a very dry day which made us dry... the SToL cream seemed to dry out nearly as fast as it got whipped into a lather...

first try with a Perma-Sharp half-blade in the shavette... it was aggressive and gave us a bunch of weepers... think the dry face was the main cause... only ever used Shark Saloons in the shavette...

the SToL PSG relieved some of the "irritation"... we're smoof and sniffing good...

Have a Good Weekend and SOTDs ATGSers...
