Post Shave: Spearhead - Fleur De France - Aftershave
Great shave. This tub has an ever shrinking ring of death at the bottom and I will be sad when it’s gone. This scent was the first spearhead offering I tried and I quickly acquired more.
Post Shave: Gentleman’s Nod - Cosecha Catalana - Aftershave
A very enjoyable #fougerefriday shave. Mousse Illuminee and Cosecha Catalana paired really well together. Interestingly enough, they're also the only two scents in my collection that list Artemisia.
The aftershave version of Cosecha Catalana brings out so many beautiful nuances of the scent that unfortunately the soap just doesn't capture. I highly recommend it!
Fragrance: Spearhead Shaving Company – Seaforth! Heather
Very nice morning shave today. I enjoyed the sweet and fresh Land Ho!
The new B16 is quite hungry (I'll have to increase my scoop size for the rest of #SampleStraightember), but just feels wonderful while face lathering 🥰
Brush: Yaqi Cashmere Synthetic Shaving Brush, Dandelion Green Handle, 24mm
Razor: Gillette Flare Tip Superspeed A1 (1955)
Blade: Lord Super Chrome (2)
Lather: Barrister & Mann - Presto Shaving Soap
Post Shave: Nivea - Moisturizing Post Shave Balm
If I only used this soap sample for the rest of the month, and if I also shaved every day, I might be able to finish this sample before the end of September. But I probably won't do either of those things, so it's seeming unlikely. Oh well.
Post Shave: Saponificio Varesino - 70th Anniversary - Aftershave
Post Shave: Thayers - Rose - Toner
Fragrance: Saponificio Varesino - 70th Anniversary - Eau de Parfum
3 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
Phenomenal. I bring the same mediocre technique to each morning's shave, but I consistently get amazingly close and comfortable shaves from this "14" form factor. I need a "Most Excellent" rating just for these razors.
