Menthol Monday's Shave
Cold Water Rinse
Eskimo Tuxedo Shave Soap
Jayaruh #415, first lather
Burham Safety Razor, first shave
Vintage Burham SE
CWR
Osage Rub
Today is Day 21 of SEptember. Up for the challenge today is my new to me Burham Safety Razor.
The Eskimo Tuxedo Shave Soap face-lathered well with Jayaruh #415 Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Burham Safety Razor with a Vintage Burham SE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I love this razor and it usually shaves fantastic. However the blades let me down today. Or maybe my technique was just really off. I started with a 6th use Gem SS. It was tuggy and rough. I wetted down the Tabac a bit more thinking it may have just been a bit on the dry side. I also switched to a new Pal carbon and concentrated more on what I was doing. Another rough pass. Ended up with a fair bit of irritation on my neck. Oh well can't win them all.

Bad blades happen. Sorry about that.
