SOTD 12/22/19

Incredibly great shave on this 22nd day of Decadent December. Up early to prepare for the arrival of our Christmas/New Year’s guests. The MMOC really plowed through the whiskers on my favorite MWF lather. I would shave every day with this soap, but still need to work through my other soaps none of which in my estimation can hold a candle to the Fat, and that includes the two pucks of that fancy French MDC stuff the bride bought me for Christmas. In any case, beautiful, smoooth BBS of both noggin and face. I feel clean and refreshed!

BLADE: Pella SS PTFE

What a better day to try out my new design that I’ve called Jerte. First use with scents from the area that’s given the name to this brush: “Valle del Jerte”, in Western Spain. Soap created by Frankincense with lovely notes from the low mountains from that region.
Very pleased with the brush performance, confort and design. This is a keep for my 2020 lineup.
