My daughter decided she was going to choose all the supplies for my shave this morning. She loves the look of the Party brush and the smell of the Stirling Orange Chill. She made the lather for me and also wanted to set up the SOTD picture. She’s only 9 but I think she may become a wet shaver when the time comes...

The Orange Chill provided a great cushioned and slick lather. I enjoyed the cooling effect of the menthol, especially post shave. Great first experience with Stirling. Thank you rlroadie2004 for sending it to me in the Pandora’s Box PIF! The size of the Pottersong bowl and spiral bottom makes for an easy lathering of the soap.

Now that is a razor!!

Tonight’s SOTD:



I tried the Karve on the lowest setting plate (the AA), with a Feather tonight and had a really nice, smooth, mellow shave.

I coupled it with my other Christmas present, a Wild West Brushworks Cashmere knotted brush (my wife and I are celebrating Christmas early this year due to a combination of work, travel and family commitments).

I also used my Raw RS-10 (with the aggressive plate) to do an unplanned head shave tonight. This plate felt a bit harsh when I used it on my face, but has proved perfect for head shaving.

Have a great Christmas guys.
