Shave of the day, 2nd December 2019, Future Fiction

Future Fiction day!
Love that fresh citrus, pine – musk!

Should have corked these blades from the start. They no longer feels harsh now, even with a slightly more positive blade exposure change with the Nodachi cap.
Previous use with original Masamune cap even with its -0.13mm negative exposure still had my face feeling a little raw but this time round they felt quite comfortable.

2nd use on the blade as I actually used it the night before. Which previously was a no no, again with the morning shave usually leaving my face a little on the peeled side. This time round, zero feedback from the alum.
But, I may have overdid with the corking (corked it twice) as the blade didn’t give me a true BBS.

Shave of the day, 1st December 2019, Soap Commander’s Endurance (Shulton Old Spice)

Brought out my old Old spice for this shave, guestimate about 70ml left of the old Shulton. Thanks to a forwarder and FedEx, I got me some Soap Commander Splashes and had to refresh my scent imagery’s memory.
Wife did raise her eyebrows at me though 😁.

For those who are still using P&G’s “Old Spice”, do yourself a favor and try to get a sniff of “real thing” and you’ll understand why men and women loved that scent for an age and a half.

Another extremely comfortable shave resulting in a true glass “I keep touching myself” BBS skin removed of any growth.
You’ll know a fellow wet-shaver if you see a man who keeps feeling the underside of his neck and chin to see when that pesky micro bristle pops out. 🤣
Zero feedback from the alum.
