Denim and H24 really work well together. Quick shave and off to my aunt's for a belated Easter lunch
Razor gud, lather not as good as I wanted but perfectly serviceable. Wanted to stay on @[email protected]'s suggested theme today so I went with green soap (Dr. K's Peppermint shave soap), green razor (MOARteen), and green splash (Proraso green).
What I can say about the razor: it's sharp enough to shave comfortably, the tang is plenty grippy even without jimping due to the rough finish, which was honestly an apprehension of mine, and even though the blade is a relatively large format at 15/16, the grind makes it lighter than I expected while being very stiff feeling.
The scales are so pretty. Hard to capture in images though
Basic evening shave
Very nice birthday shave today
Added a few drops of Declaration Grooming's menthol to Proraso green to make it a bit coolinger
Quick shave today, Palmolive and the SOC made sure of a great lather with 0 effort, and plate 3 of the razor got me to a quick 2 pass BBS. Some minor weepers along the jaw but nothing to write home about
Used plate III of the razor today as I had 5 days of growth to eliminate. I forgot just how smooth and efficient it is, albeit probably too aggressive for more regular use.
Lather is Dr. K's Peppermint shave soap
Very good soap imo, and it's a very hard puck
Haven't used my pig brush in a while, I forgot how good it feels. Much stronger backbone than my badger and also very soft hairs.
Dirtyver ++, Verbena ++
though the cream needs a LOT of loading, the lather is very good indeed
and I finally got over whatever gave me burnt tire in the splash, so now it smells amazing

Shitty picture taken in a big hurry today, but a good shave. Antiga Barberia de Bairro makes good cream and Cologne Russe is great
Koraat ++
And I need to somehow get a lifetime supply of Dirtyver
