SOTD - Thursday 17 April 2025

Pre-shave: Warm shower
Brush: Yaqi Black Marble 24mm
Soap: Razorock Gold Shaving Soap
Razor head: Henson AL13
Razor handle: King C Gillette
Blade: Derby Extra (1st use)
Aftershave: Uppercut Deluxe
Post-shave gel: St James of London Mandarin & Patchouli

Fairly standard effort this morning. The workmanlike Derby Extra gave a solid performance in the Henson with the Razorock Gold supplying the foam via a face lather. Two passes plus pick-ups resulted in DFS. The Uppercut Deluxe aftershave smells very pleasant, but despite the name it unfortunately possesses a total lack of punch. The SJOL Mandarin & Patchouli post-shave gel smells similar and did manage to give the Uppercut a small boost.
Enjoy your shaves everyone...:boxing:

wow, that was fun... an impeccable shave with the GOAT.. 1st time with a veggie soap.. excellent lather but lacked the residual slickness that I'm used to with tallow soaps..


Shaving.. to be enjoyed, not endured.

Last time I had a Aesop / Sori Yanagi bowl I didn’t have CH3 sized brushes so it felt a little small this morning - fortunately the very soft Platinum fibres encourage face lathering so it wasn’t that much of a problem but it does remind me why I preferred the Gile’s Pottery pedestal bowl. The Vetyver MdC smells delightful but mildly irritating to me skin so I’ll finish off the sample but it’s off the possible purchase list
