November 1, 2024 - Part Deux

Brush: Zenith - B21 boar

Razor: Gillette - Super Speed Black Tip

Blade: Gillette - 7 O’clock SharpEdge (5)

Lather: Stirling - Vanilla Sandalwood

Post: Old Spice AS splash

Post: Ginger’s Garden - Unscented AS Balm + Menthol

I’m flirting with the idea of BBS November. At the very least, a second shave was super relaxing tonight.

Vanilla Sandalwood and a can of Sierra Nevada Celebration was a sublimely relaxing end to the week.

Have a great weekend y’all.
