Lather Catcher Sunday's Cold Water Shave
Fat February

Cold Water Rinse
Mitchell's Wool Fat Shave Soap
Jayaruh #292 HMW Badger
C.V. Heljestrand Lather Catcher
Heljestrand Wedge
Cold Water Rinse
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Duru Cologne

The Mitchell's Wool Fat Shave Soap face-lathered well with Jayaruh #292 HMW Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the C.V. Heljestrand Lather Catcher razor and the Heljestrand Wedge Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Duru Cologne. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Another phenomenal shave this morning! New soap day with the arrival yesterday of "Lavender Suprême" shave soap and splash from ETHOS Grooming Essentials. Wonderfully soothing true-lavender scent and an incredibly thick and slick lather built with the Sorrentino Brushworks synth for three passes with the Karve and I finished with alum, followed by Thayers unscented witch hazel, the matching skin food splash & Czech & Speake "Oxford & Cambridge" EdC. Again, zero feedback from the alum.

BBS bliss!!

Hope you have a great day. :)
