    Pre: Warm water face wash
    Brush: Omega 20102 Boar
    Soap: Fine Platinum
    Razor: ATT R2
    Blade: Astra SP
    Post: Warm then cold water rinse, Floid Black AS IMG_20180116_144718.jpg

    About 30hrs stubble surrendered meekly to the R2, and the wonderful Fine soap played no small part in a great shave.

    jimjo1031 never bloomed myself

    Schick I1 (55) Razor
    Personna Injector Blade
    Made Rite #15 Boar Brush
    Tabac Shave Soap
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Tabac After Shave
    Tabac Eau De Cologne

    Except for soap and water, I don't use a any kind of face wash. But today, since my GF was given a few things from her daughter, I used Clearasil Daily Clear Wash Gel before shaving. Maybe it's my imagination, or because Tabac always feels nice on my face, it seemed like my skin had more glide or slickness to it. Even with two days worth of beard growth, my shave seemed so effortless it hardly felt as if there was a blade in the razor. If I still get the same feeling with other shaves using this product, she just might have this missing from her side of the bathroom vanity. Did two passes with a bit of touch up for an extremely smooth and comfortable BBS shave.

    YESTERDAY'S SHAVE
    20180115_103753.jpg


    Prep: pre shave soap mix
    Razor: Razorock Hawk
    Brush: Razorock Plissoft
    Soap: Ballenclaugh Honey Tobacco
    Post: Folsom & CO Muir


    Very nice shave yesterday. Terrific lather from the Ballenclaugh, and the scent of Honey Tobacco is unlike any other tobacco scent. Lather was slick and protective. Finished off with Muir.


    SHAVE OF THE DAY
    20180116_150600.jpg

    Prep: pre shave soap mix
    Razor: Razorock Hawk

    Brush: Razorock BC Plissoft
    Soap: Wild West Shaving Co- Wichita
    Post: CL YRP aftershave


    Very refreshing shave this afternoon. Have learned that this soap works best for me when less water is used. Scent of Wichita is a unique blend of rose, bay rum, Vetiver and some other notes. Paired well with YRP. Hope everyone had a great shave!
