SOTN Monday
prep - shower with Caprina Fresh Goat’s Milk Original Formula bar soap
razor - QShave Adjustable
blade - Shaverboy Super Stainless (2)
brush - Fendrihan Classic Pure Grey Badger
soap - First Canadian Shave Soap Co. Loretto Lime & Rosemary (original formula)
post - warm water rinse, DSA “Pure & Natural” alum, cold water rinse
aftershave - Pinaud Clubman Musk
music - streaming K-Rock Europe
This soap was 4 years old. The Lime scent components in it used to irritate my face, and I don't care for the Rosemary, so I didn't use it much.
This time I squished a bit into the bottom of the lather bowl and just kept adding water until I got lots of creamy lather. It worked.
Also, maybe the age mellowed the effect of the lime, so it felt okay.
I started on setting 2, then 3, then 4 for the cleanup 3rd pass, and still got a BBS.
I'm really starting to like this milder razor/settings scheme.

We could be Heroes, just for one day.
