This is my first time trying these Bic blades. They performed just as well as some of my other regulars. No drama.

It was a lovely lather from Stirling as always, which was a relief after the frag burn I experienced yesterday.

I'm vaguely on theme with British Leather today, but I don't have any Sheffield steel or British soaps. I did have a tub of TOBS sandalwood from when I first started, but that's long gone.

Have a great one y'all. ✌️

Best mmo on the market imo

Ah, I didn’t know this. Interesting! And yes, clever marketing move for sure.

I did a bit of looking but couldn’t find a site that compares the Gentle Shave’s model numbers with those assigned by Zenith. Do you happen to know where I can find that info (preferably without learning Italian 😄)?

That’s such a cheeky response to a cease and desist over the previous name. I love it

Just a beautiful shave this morning. Summer Storm always brings me back to being in the desert during a thunderstorm. Makes me miss living in New Mexico.

This balm and artisan is new to me and was one of the prizes I won in the children's cancer raffle. Nice menthol level, good ingredients, and left my skin feeling great!

Have a great one y'all, we made it to the weekend! ✌️

Oh snap, an emacs plugin for your SOTD is next-level.

I wonder how much effort it would be to port to nvim... 🤔

First shave with my Autumn Glory sample, and I quite enjoyed it. I get notes of wet leaves, apple cider, and wet earth.

As always the lather was great. I still hold that Stirling performs best with a boar brush.

Have a good one all!

No need, I have a sample of Oro Valley kicking around. :)

Oro Valley is such a lovely scent for the fall.

I got a sample last week and have shaved with it a couple times, it’s quite lovely!

What is BVWSC shave?
