    It's been a long time since I've used my Synergy Frost_byte soap so I'll give it a go. It's pretty damned ok - lots of rich lather, frigid, and pretty good skincare. The Rubby Dubby Doo to me is tried and true - hey, I'm a poet and didn't know it! ;) :D

    I don`t know if you`re familiar with Parkers Skin Moisturizer or not, but it is sliiiick. Ive been pondering if I should put a drop or two in my homemade pre shave oil. Of course I would have to use an eyedropper. Even the squeeze bottle would be too much.

    SHAVE OF THE DAY
    20160723_174616.jpg


    Prep: Musgo Real orange amber
    Razor: Icon x3 head/ Maggard MR18C handle
    Blade: Gillette Yellow (4th shave)
    Brush: Maggard 26mm synthetic
    Soap: Wholly Kaw- Chypre Rose Concerto tallow
    Post: Thayers Peach WH/ MLSW Reunion A/S



    2 pass shave today, had great results yesterday so I went with the same Razor and brush. The WK soap made a great lather, and the scent is more than just a rose scent, more of a Chypre which is a good thing since I usually don't care for rose scents. Not usually much of a floral fan but this scent is really nice and well put together. Did get a few nicks but got a very close shave. Finished off with Reunion aftershave. Hope everyone had a great shave!

    Nuàvia Blu | Rubberset 200-4 w/Omega boar | 1912 Star | Gem PTFE (2) | Barrister and Mann - Adagio Aftershave

    [​IMG]
    Nuàvia, as advertised, is legitimately good enough to forgo post-shave products. Nonetheless, it's hot in East Texas, and I wanted a little cooling effect as well as the addictive, albeit fleeting scent of Adagio. A quick 2+ pass head and face, perfect BBS shave, and we were out the door to a family reunion. After about 30 minutes in the truck, the Blu overtook the Adagio. I do understand Adagio's short-lived scent is by design, but I still wish it had a bit more staying power. That said, Nuàvia is one of the more sustained soaps I've used, and it has a pleasant scent in its own right. I really couldn't go wrong with this shave.

    Dove Men Face Wash
    Van Der Hagen Luxury Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #28
    Schick Eversharp Hydro-Magic I2
    Schick Injector Twin
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    T.N. Dickinson's WH
    Barbasol Brisk AS

    The Van Der Hagen Luxury Shave Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #28 finest badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick Eversharp Hydro-Magic razor with a Schick Injector Twin blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with T.N. Dickinson's WH and then Barbasol Brisk After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    It is a nice presentation for sure. However, just like CRSW's LE Bowl, functionally, it would be nice to be in a tub. I'm a shower shaver, and it's just less precarious to have a light-weight plastic or metal container. I know, I could scoop some out into a separate container, but I probably won't.
