SOTD: Monday April 24, 2017


Razor: Standard Razor (Gunmetal Edition)
Blade: Personna (2nd use)
Brush: St. James of London Badger 
Cream: Taylor of Old Bond Street Coconut 
Aftershave: Aqua Velva Classic Ice Blue 
Comments/Overall Thoughts: 9/10 (or an A-), for BBS on face and socially acceptable pass on the neck. The Standard razor has not been getting a lot of traction as new stuff has came into my den so I made a point to use it today. It's mild, smooth and efficient. Similar to the DE89 or 34C. The only drawback is the handle can be slippery when wet due to the lack of knurling. The brush has a floppy knot so it is easier to use a painting motion with the lather, rather than splaying. The Aqua Velva sure takes me back to when it was a daily use item, rather than various artisan aftershaves.
