Saturday's


TESC Pre-Shave Oil
Proraso Green Shaving Soap
Semogue Owners Club
Gillette Blue Tip
Astra SP
CWR, Asma Alum Block
Thayers Rose Petal WH
Aqua Velva Ice Blue

The Proraso Green Shaving Soap is nearing its end. I have one or two more shaves left. It has had a good run. The Proraso Green face-lathered well with my Semogue Owners Club boar brush. Two passes with my new Gillette Blue Tip razor and a Astra SP blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with Thayers Rose Petal WH and then Aqua Velva After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Rob do you use that as a shave bowl? The indentations would work great for lather.

Looking very good. Thanks for the PM.

SHAVE OF THE DAY


Prep: Occams crushed lime
Razor: Gillette Single Ring OC
Blade: Timor (2nd shave)
Brush: RazoRock plissoft
Soap: SDM
Post: Aqua Velva (decanted)
Balm: T&H 1805 sample


2 pass shave today. The SDM soap made a thick lather, the scent is very light, but the slickness and post shave were great for todays shave. Finished off with AV and a sample of 1805 balm. Hope everyone had a great shave!

Vintage, hollow O'Chelly DE razor

Sim senhor!

Simply awesome set

Thanks Rob!

Not yet but planned.

My shave today:
Astra sp (New)
Stirling stainless handle razor
Frozen tundra sample
Stirling 24mm synthetic

So I tried my first mentholated soap today, which is the third most mentholated one. The face freeze...was AWESOME!! Never felt that good during a shave before and the lather was awesome. Still need some practice on how much water, but I got a bbs (minus some trouble spots that I'm going to make my 30 day focus) and no irritation. No nicks. No weepers. Just a wonderful, smooth, cold water shave the only thing is I need time to adjust to such a heavy handle. It helpd with not applying pressure and had tons of grip, I just haven't used one before. All in all, bliss.

Awesome! Sounds like your gonna be a menthol monkey like some of us here are. Glad you enjoyed it!

I do believe I am a menthol monkey from today on Since I handled the frozen tundra well, I want to try his coldest soap, but I cannot for the life of me remember the name of it

Try chiseled face Cryogen!

It'll be hard to put it down....

I find the face freeze makes shaving even more fun sometimes because my face gets so numb I can't feel the blade!

That sounds crazy cold! I'll order some cryogen next payday

You'll love it! It's absurdly cold! I cry throughout most of my shave with it from the menthol. Love it
