Sunday, August 4, 2024: Austerity - Living Off the Land

  • Brush: Yaqi 24mm Synthetic Panda
  • Razor: King C. Gillette DE Razor
  • Blade: Astra Superior Platinum (23)
  • Lather: Haslinger Algae
  • Postshave: Williams Aqua Velva
  • Postshave: Nivea After Shave Balm

This is actually the second shave in my living off the land challenge, but I didn't find the time to post my shave yesterday. The KC Gillette is a very mild razor, and combined with an old blade, the result doesn't hold very long (even though immediately after shaving, it is ok). Haslinger's Algae is slightly drying, but it gets its job done.

Have a good night!
