Thinking of starting a thread that has members using their Shave Den products on Sunday. I would like to get some feed back from members? There may be other items that pertain to The Shave Den that could be included. Reviews of Shave Den Products, and/or thing you would like to see. Here is yesterdays shave.
I'd probably use just the after-shave and shave cream. One of these days I will have to look and see what TSD has.
One thing I would like to see from TSD store is the opportunity to purchase after shave in glass bottles.
08/30/2015 Razor – Wolfman OC with Triad Helix SS Blade – Feather (3) Brush – Zenith Boar Lather – TSD Yin Yang Post - Witch Hazel & Fine L’Orange @Douglas Carey Thank you for starting this thread. TSD soaps are top performers for sure and the number of available combination seems endless.
this is a great idea! I love the few TSD soaps I have and have heard great things about all other TSD products.
August 30, 2015 Shave Den Sunday Hot Shower, Mid-Day Shave Soap: TSD Unscented Brush: Omega Pro 48 Razor: Gillette Tech “Fat Handle” Blade: Gillette 7 O’clock Blue (1) TSD Witch Hazel Aftershave Milk: TSD Uncented After Shave: TSD Ying Yang (last minute substitute for ISZ) Oh my! It’s been a month since I “graduated” from my two-month intro to wetshaving. For two months I did a Rule and a Focus just with a Tech - to introduce myself to traditional shaving and build up my DE technique after a lifetime of carts. I then “moved up” to different DE razors, the past month I compared adjustables - a Slim and Fatboy. Now perhaps I should spend a month or so with each of them, just to be fair. But today’s shave was like being united with an old friend. It was just so smooth and comfortable - like we had never parted - and got right back into the grove we had last settled into. It was a fantastic shave! Two passes on a two-day growth. The blade/razor just hummed a soft tune throughout - as good as any shave I’ve had in three+ months of shaving - just phenomenal! TSD products were great as well. Most of my TSD product use has been aftershave and milk samples which I love the quality, as I move through to find my favorite scents. Yin Yang is at the top of the list so far - a wonderfull citrus, lime scent with lavender. My first use of the soap - its a lather monster! Just an initial brush load, a little water and BOOM - lather explosion! A great Sunday drive! Big thanks again to @Douglas Carey for bringing this thread! Thanks Doug! Cheers! RT
SHAVE DEN SUNDAY Razor: Gillette Slim (1965)(7) Blade: Gillette Platinum (7) Brush: Whipped Dog Silver Tip Badger, Olivewood Handle (24/67) Soap: The Shave Den Coconut A/S: The Shave Den Coconut This soap is quick to build into an excellent lather. I like that there is enough room from the top of the soap to the top of the container to build your lather without spreading it all over the counter top. The combination of the Coconut Soap and After Shave is an outstanding combination. I hope to have an order of new soaps and A/S next week. Right @Queen of Blades.
Shave Den Sunday! TSD ISZ PreShave Balm Phoenix OC Rapira Swedish Supersteel La Toja Shave Stick Alum TSD ISZ AS Splash Have a lovely Evening!
This is is a great idea, and I'very been using TSD soaps most of the time lately. Time to get some aftershaves and catch up! Today it was orange soap with 2x menthol, a great scent to wake up to! Like I'very found out with other TSD soaps, the scent is strong enough to be enjoyed throughout the shave but not overpowering, while the 2x menthol is just right.

Cleanup with the Red Tip, which doesn't feel very aggressive after using the Valet. The pleasant smell of Coconut from TSD soap followed by the same with TSD A/S Coconut aftershave.
