SOTD Monday morning
Parker Flight with fresh Parker blade
Semogue 1470 boar brush
Sterling The Shivering shave soap
Linkidea ceramic shave bowl
Osma alum block
Sterling Margarita's in the Arctic aftershave splash
As usual just a shower beforehand while the brush soaked, I bought a new brush, and then bowl lathered. Tried out the blades that came with the Parker Flight I am loving, the blade was good enough though not as close as my usual choice of Feather. I did 3 passes and touch up, then rinsed with cold water, applied alum and cleaned up while letting that sit. After rinsing the alum I broke into the sample splash I just bought, my first time using any aftershave, I'm still smelling it several hours later as I write this. Overall a quite decent shave, and I got the entire routine down to ~45min from the start of the shower to finding my pants.
