2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
And there we have it! The end of Settantisemo Straightember. 70 shaves on Saponificio Varesino 70th Anniversary in the year of my personal 70th anniversary. Wonderful experience.
Now there's the stress of what to use for tomorrow's shave :0
Fun fact: you could fit another 70 70th anniversary lathers this year. Just sayin'.
I think once this year is enough. If, over time, I decide to sell off my soap collection (which is large), I would make 70 70ths an annual event.
Finishing in style with the Fili 14 ๐
Congrats for the finished 70ยฒ!
Easy, it's TabOktober! ๐
TabOKtober did not go unnoticed. I have a backlog of new soaps to try, but there will be Tabac Tuesdays, Bleu Teusdays, Black Watchdays, and others coming.
Same ๐ :
Oh, I'm looking forward to those in November!
I know that DG has a soap called Delta-V. I looked at B Cubed and think, B -> Magnetic field -> Teslas. Can't think of an equation that includes B^3^. So I look at the soap description. A riff on bay rum? [Big fan of bay rum, I need to try this soap] What's with the name?

The bending stiffness of a beam with rectangular cross section a ร b ~ bยณ. Finally years of teaching structural mechanics have paid off! ๐
@djundjila@sub.wetshaving.social
Thanks for that! I spent too much of my university years with Maxwell's equations.
@gcgallant
Oh, and the name is derived from "Blackberry Blossom Bay ", and it's a bay rum
