SOTN Wednesday

"Amici" = "friends", which connects to "Man's best friend".

prep - shower with Caprina Fresh Goat’s Milk with Shea Butter bar soap
razor - British Aristocrat Junior
blade - Feather (3)
brush - APShaveCo SynBad
soap - Italian Barber's Amici
post - warm water rinse, DSA “Pure & Natural” alum, cold water rinse
aftershave - I.B. Amici splash
music - iPod playlist of Laika & the Cosmonauts (their genre is Rautalanka plus some Surf, Spy, and Space)

Amici soap is pretty good for a non-tallow soap, but it's really the scent of the aftershave that I like. Still waiting for the soap to be back in stock, then I will order some more soap and more AS. And some more stuff to get the free shipping, of course.

I'm beginning to think that Feathers are still not for me. I forget whether they improve with use, or get worse. Tonight it felt like it was cutting up my face, but wasn't. I'm debating whether or not to cork it even at this late date.
It will be a grand journey of exploration.
