  Feb 17, 2024 - Travel Shave Day 1

  • Brush: Stirling Soap Co. Green & Ivory 24mm Synthetic 2-Band Knot
  • Razor: BAILI BR 176
  • Blade: Gillette Platinum [1]
  • Lather: Barrister and Mann - Midnight Special - Soap
  • Post Shave: Lucky Tiger - Face Tonic - Aftershave (Alcohol Free)

  I managed to find some DE blade in a local convenience store at my destination—not much of a selection, and not very cheap. I brought an inexpensive razor with me in my carry on just in case it was confiscated by airport security.

  Rating: 3.5/5

  Luxury shave. Batters up is pretty great. The scent lingers a lot longer than any of my other soaps.

  • Brush: Stirling 24mm Synthetic
  • Blade: Cien Men 2-Blade Cart (6)
  • Lather: Noble Otter - Batters Up - Soap
  • Post Shave: Spearhead - Seaforth! Heather - Toner
  • Post Shave: Goodfellow & Co. - Face Lotion - Kelp & Sea Mineral

  Went to Mertz/Smallflower/Q-Brothers with VisceralWatch yesterday and he enabled me to increase my soap count.

  Batters Up may not smell “good” or “nice”, but it’s squarely in my wheelhouse. The tarred maple bat note is pretty prominent.
