Shave of the Day - 9/16

Cold Water Shave

Dove Men's Face Wash
Mitchell's Wool Fat Shaving Soap
Semogue 1305 Boar Brush
Schick I1 
NOS Gillette Platinum Plus
CWR, Asma Alum Block
Thayers Rose Petal WH
Mennen Skin Bracer AS

Today, I got around to my Schick I1. It has been over a year since I used this wonderful razor. Everything came together like a master symphony, and I enjoyed a fantastic shave. The Mitchell's Wool Fat face-lathered very easily with my Semogue 1305 Boar Brush. Two passes with my Schick I1 and Gillette Platinum Plus blade gave me a close, comfortable, near BBS shave. After a cold water rinse, alum block, and a final cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayers Rose Petal WH and then Mennen Skin Bracer after shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed... The I1 is definitely one of those desert island razors. If I could have only one razor, I could live with this one the rest of my life.
