SOTD Saturday 23 May - Friday 29 May 2026

[Mark12]

Tuesday 26th May...

A very hot start to the morning so a quick cold water shave. The Pitralon gave a nice cooling after effect. The blade was a Derby Premium which in hindsight didn't cut as well as I'd hoped it would. Sharper blades moving up gradually next time I think in this razor. The brush was a little Pearl 'White Walker' synthetic which I really enjoy using especially with a soap that lathers up like this.

Enjoy your day...

Great choice of soap for this mornings shave

How did you enjoy Cronos 2.1 base ?
This scent is wonderful.

I like it, this one didn’t cure though, softer than a cream but works great and yes, the scent is really nice, it was what prompt me to get this set.

Getting back to some kind of order after releasing 2 storage boxes full of my shaving kit.
A very nice easy shave with the Vector today.
I hope you all enjoyed the Sun safely today, our hottest day in May of around 35*C since the 33*C of1922 and 1944.
Have a great evening.
