SOTD 12-18 January 2025

14 January, 2025

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Today's shave set the bar pretty high for the rest of the week. Returned to CBL Soaps and their excellent "Hombres Barbershop" shave soap and aftershave tonic. Great scent and superb lather built with the Wild West Brushworks "Bisbee" Sweet Spot Badger brush. Two passes (plus touch-up) with the '58 Gillette Super Speed and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by the matching aftershave tonic and Coty "Stetson" EdC.

Hope you have a great day.

As easy a shave as one can give themselves. A sharp blade in a mild razor produces quite good results. At least my experience anyway.
Great shaves to all…
