• Blade: Personna Lab Blue (10)
• Lather: Barrister & Mann - Petrichor - Soap

Back to a DE after about a week of GEM shaves. Very nice. I’m hitting this Petrichor hard, and I’ll probably kill it in the next week or two.

• Blade: Feather Hi-Stainless (5)
• Lather: Barrister and Mann - Le Grand Chypre - Soap
• Toner: None

1 pass. Face lather. Good shave.

I had to rush today and only had time for a 1-pass shave. I haven’t done one of these in a very long time. Not bad actually.

• Brush: Zenith 506B MB (27 mm × 55 mm Manchurian badger)
• Razor: Fatip - Lo Storto - Testa Dentata
• Blade: Derby Extra
• Lather: Barrister and Mann – Oceana (Soft Heart)
• Post Shave: Ralon – Sport
• Fragrance: Stirling Soap Co. – Island Man

Growing that ring of death is very satisfying. I’m tempted to use this soap for AA, but I’m afraid it might die on me prematurely. #AustereAugustProblems

Milksteak Monday: Delta-V

• Brush: Declaration Grooming Know It All 28mm B14 Badger Knot
• Razor: Karve Shaving Co. Overlander
• Blade: Gillette 7 O’Clock Super Stainless (Green) [11]
• Lather: Declaration Grooming - Delta-V - Soap

I used two sweet pear and tea scents today. While Delta-V had my head above the clouds, Musashi brought me back to earth.
