    • Brush: AP Shave Co Strawberry Cream 26mm G5A
    • Razor: Red Imp 5/8" Near Wedge (Straight Shave 268)
    • Lather: Spearhead Shaving Company - Seaforth! Spiced - Soap

    • Post Shave: Spearhead Shaving Company - Seaforth! Spiced - Aftershave

    2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.

    Seaforth! Spiced is my second favorite Spearhead scent, Black Watch is my favorite. I have SSL and Heather as well. To be able to use Black Watch (yesterday) followed by Spiced makes for some pretty nice shaving.

    • Lather: Barrister and Mann - Presto Shaving Soap
    • Brush: Yaqi Cashmere Synthetic Shaving Brush, Dandelion Green Handle, 24mm
    • Razor: Gillette Slim Adjustable H3 (1962, 3rd Quarter)
    • Blade: Lord Super Chrome (1)
    • Post Shave: Nivea - Post Shave Balm - Sensitive

    A few weeks ago I got samples of B&M’s two new seasonal soaps (Adagio and Presto). I liked both but ended up buying a full tub of Adagio and the matching balm. I definitely like Adagio, but after continued use of my Presto sample I’m finding myself wishing I had gone with that instead.

    2023.07.07 SOTN:

    • Prep: Neutrogena Hydro Boost Cleanser

    • Brush: AKA Brushworks Amethyst Watchman with 26mm AP Shave Co G5C

    • Razor: Henson AL13(+++)

    • Blade: Personna Lab Blue (2)

    • Lather: Seaforth! Sea Ice Lime

    • Post Shave: Stirling Mentholated Unscented Witch Hazel and Aloe, Seaforth! Sea Ice Lime Aftershave Splash, Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel-Cream Extra-Dry


    Man, not a good shave at all today. I think Personna blades are just a flat out no for me, regardless of the razor. Still on the fence on if I prefer the aggressive or mild Henson.
