    Ooo nice. I haven’t had this good of a Tusk lather in a while. I had a feeling I haven’t been loading enough soap on account of my tubs being at least 2 years old, so today I made sure to really go for it.

      2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.

    Very close shave today. The light, citrusy vibe of Jack is a perfect fit for the weather we’re having today; mid 80’s (~30°C) and humid. There’s even a friggin’ air quality alert.

    I haven’t used this Ralf Aust for a while. It has been sitting in pile of razors that need an edge refresh. I got to that last night, hit record on the camera, and made a video.

    • Blade: Lord New Lord Platinum
    • Lather: House of Mammoth Mood Indigo
    • Aftershave: Mammoth / Noble Otter / Declaration Grooming Cerberus

    The Razorine is always fun to use. It took me a moment to remember how to use this unusual geometry, but I ended up getting a good, albeit lengthy, shave.

    Blueberry and stone fruit, so good

    Monday, April 29, 2024: Les lundis du Père Lucien

    I am getting sloppy with posting my shaves – I forgot to post my Saturday shave. Ok shave today, though I wonder if I should make more effort with honing this razor.

    Have a good night!

      Im my experience, when I wonder whether I should, I definitely should.

      For me it’s the mailcall and fix-up posts that I got sloppy about

    • Brush: Muninn Woodworks w/ C&H V19 Fanchurian
    • Razor: Ralf Aust 6/8, Full Hollow Square Point
    • Lather: Barrister and Mann - Reserve Cool
    • Post Shave: Barrister and Mann - Reserve Cool Aftershave Splash

    Nice shave today. I usually go through a routine with Mrs. Pudding and have her sniff different soaps to decide which she likes that day. There’s only a handful in my den that she likes every day. She liked Cool off the tub but wasn’t big on it post shave. Always subject to change, day to day. I, however, really enjoy it.
