    Not freezing, but still cooling and refreshing is the best way to describe the Sottozero soap and does it ever smell great - minty/mentholy with wonderful lather and a good post-shave feeling. Ditto on the Lucky Tiger a/s cream's cooling and soothing. In fact it's really popular in barbershops all over the US and Canada. I don't think that the Rubby Dubby Doo needs too much of a description! ;) :D

    TESC Pre-Shave Oil
    Speick Shave Cream
    Jayaruh #56 synthetic
    Gillette Goodwill LC
    Personna Super
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayers Rose Petal WH
    Speick After Shave

    The Speick Shave Cream face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #56 synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette Goodwill LC razor with a Personna Super 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 Speick After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Yeah sleeping on a park bench because I ran out of money and all that was left was a pack of cigarettes and a railpass to get back to Germany. Life was so much fun back then!

    SHAVE OF THE DAY
    20160412_185829(0).jpg

    Prep: gustafsons woodlands
    Razor: Gillette Single Ring OC
    Blade: Perma-sharp (2nd shave)
    Brush: omega s synthetic
    Soap: Mickey Lee Reunion
    Post: Lucky Tiger/ Myrsol Emulsion


    2 pass shave today. The scent of Reunion is a peppery green scent, very well put together, excellent in fact.The lather was in large amounts from just a small scrape from the sample. The Perma sharp blades are one of my go-to blades, so no problems there. I would call it a DFS overall, finished with LT and Emulsion. Hope everyone had a great shave!

    Thanks Rob!

    When I use this soap I realize it's a shame the company shut down. Good soap.

    Razor - Gillette Somerset
    Brush - Epsilon White Horse Hair “Fan Shape” Black Shaving Brush 27mm knot
    Bowl - Copper shaving bowl
    Shave stick - Speick
    image.jpeg
    First shave with the Somerset razor. Very close shave a couple of small weepers on the neck while opposing the grain. Heavy for a small razor. I missed the smell of a humidor. Cedar & tobacco.
    Placed in humidor since the case was meant to look like a cigarette case.
