    •Red Tip
    •1950s Silver Star, 1st pass (2nd shave)
    •Timor, pass 2-3
    •CF Pine Tar/Williams/Aramis/Palmolive cream

    3 pass BBS. The Silver Star just wasn't up to a second shave, and that's okay. Timor performed very well. No issues.

    Mixing soaps and creams can be fun and profitable.

    •Lucky Tiger Lotion

    How many shaving display sets do you own? It seems like you about have one for every day
    the week. Either you have a lot of boxes to store them in, or your hips has a lot of bathrooms
    Your doing a very good job with them. .

    Hi Friends,

    here is my Sunday Shave:

    [​IMG]
    Razor: iKon S3S w. Jürgen Hempel Handle // Blade: Personna red // Soap: Sapone da Barba Vegetale alla Mandorla // Brush: Shavemac 23397 // Aftershave: Extro Sottozero mixed with Jojoba Oil

    Very nice and gentle shave. The soap is fantastic. Not too sweet, just the right amount of scent for my nose. Easy to lather, gives fantastic glide and cushion. Tin is almost empty and a new puck is hard to find...sold out everywhere and no one knows, when and if the soap will be available again. Can´t do anything but wait and hope.

    Have a great time, enjoy your shaves and take care.

    Greetings
    Thorsten​

    I also think that the Flair Tips are great razors. Nice for beginners and long time shavers alike.

    Late but enjoyable shave today. The Treet Silver and Gold Tech really performed great. Two passes and some touch up for a nice smooth and comfortable BBS shave.

    Mein Freund, wenn eine Seife unterbrochen wird und wenn es ein Liebling ist wirklich ist es schade - zB ist die Paradise Frost Seife wunderbar aber benutze ich es sehr sparsam. :(
