Jun. 5, 2024 - stai lontano dall'erba, maledetto pazzo
Brush: AP Shave Co. Blue & Clear
Razor: Ditzer Gold - 4/8 round point #REVENANT * Lather: Proraso - Green - Super formula cream
Post Shave:* Proraso - Green - Aftershave

Say what you will, but the ubiquitous Proraso green (this one was bought from Pharmaprix near me, years ago. There was definitely Canadian pharmacy intercom music playing) is slick AF. Must be the “super formula” attribution. This made for a great straight shave with this cute little Ditzer that I restored myself. Lots of polishing, grinding and honing was involved but in my limited time straight shaving so far this one is one of my favourites.

I squeezed some cream onto the wet brush and then face lathered. This was a reverse(ish) routine for me as I usually face lather, but sometimes bowl lather. This was my in-between. Worked out just fine albeit a little messy.

Photo today uses the theme “Grass”. I call it “stai lontano dall'erba, maledetto pazzo - tableau 1”
