Fantastic photo. Love the color of that brush.

Thank you Mark. I hope you have a great Sunday.

 

I enjoyed using the Lea Menthol cream very much today. The scent is amazing, it lathers so easily, and its cooling effect is quite strong, although it's not as strong as Palmolive Menthol. Its post-shave care is pretty good as well. The Alt Innsbruck aftershave gave me a hell of a menthol blast with such a beautiful, long-lasting scent which I love. My Astra blade is finished after giving me a whole week of great shaves!

 

Today
Hot water wash with nivea mens face wash and a washcloth
Surrey handle/ silvertip knot
Cyril R Salter French Vetiver
Dovo 98 5/8 full hollow round end
Crusella&Co vetiver
WHAT A SHAVE. Salter's version of vetiver, WOW. Then Crusella's candy sweet version. Like fire and ice. But somewhere in the middle left me feeling clean and nice. The pearlex did cut me once, i must have been busy enjoying the french vetiver ( definitely different). Church today,y'all come with me.

Cobra/Kai // Paladin // New soap I've been asked to sample and photograph. Of course I want to give it a few shaves before I make pics. Out of the tub this scent is unique and intoxicating. I'll be using the two samples this week.

June 12/2016

Razor: Hibco 2 piece
Blade: 1/2 Personna Platinum Red (1)
Brush: Unknown Brand
Lather: Italian Barber
Pre Shave Oil: Homemade
A/S: Gillette Gel/Brut Splash On

The Personna Red isn`t the blade for this razor, or I did something wrong, will try again tomorrow, you never know. The 1st pass, ATG I nicked myself several times, had to stop and use the styptic, finished 1st pass with difficulty. Did a cold water "bath" before starting on the 2nd pass, WTG/XTG and anything else I could think to do. Another cold water rinse, still had to use the styptic, but finally a decent shave. Mildly satisfied, at least I can go out in public. Wishing better luck for the rest of you, with regards, Bill
