Fri 30 May 2025

  • Brush: Zenith - 506 N XS (extra soft horse)
  • Razor: Koraat – r/Wetshaving exclusive Moarteen (15/16", full hollow, carbon steel)
  • Lather: Barrister and Mann – Fern
  • Post Shave: Stirling Soap Co – Varen
  • Fragrance: Brut – Original

I put the wrong Brut bottle in the picture, but I used the original frag, not the oceans splash.

Nice and stanky Fougèe Friday shave!

May 30th, 2025: Sample Kill

  • Brush: Chisel & Hound - Cherry
  • Razor: Merkur - 34C
  • Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
  • Lather: Catie's Bubbles - Mille Chypre - Soap
  • Post Shave: Catie's Bubbles - Florentine Fern - Aftershave
  • Fragrance: Catie's Bubbles - Crangère - EdP

Killed the little Mille Chypre sample today. I’m always glad to try new scents, but Chypres are always just a little weird to my nose.

  • Razor: King C. Gillette DE Razor
  • Blade: Astra Superior Platinum (42)

  • Brush: Stirling Soap Co. 24mm Synthetic
  • Blade: Personna Twin Pivot Plus (Atra) Cart (8)
  • Lather: Barrister and Mann - Leviathan - Soap
  • Post Shave: Old Spice - Original - Aftershave

Sloppy wet lather, good results. This cartridge still has that "comfort strip" goo even after 8 uses.
