#LNS (late night shave)
Gillette Aristocrat with Nacet blade- an efficient, medium to aggressive razor;
ABCRE silvertip brush- high elasticity, soft;
RazorEmporium Barbershop soap- bowl lathering:
-a crop type soap, fairly stiff paste and signally anemic in terms of fat;
-fine scent, predominantly sweet from bergamot and patchouli, in the background grassy notes emerged (I don't know if from musk or geranium);
-lathers quickly, fluffy (not airy);
-even application, thin layer;
-in perspective regarding protection - weak (I didn't expect that);
-once you've gone over with the blade the skin stays dry, no protective residue, the blade is felt on the skin.
The shaving session left me with some razor burn to the moustache area and nick to the chin. Culprit: soap based too much on glycerin and lacking vegetable/animal fats for lubrication.
I felt the need to let the alumn do its job more than usual. I put on a lot of Intesa splash. After drying I gave the skin what it needed to recover: Gerovital hyaluronic acid cream.
Conclusion: still better with Lodrino soap.
