    Today's shave
    Hot water wash with nivea mens face wash and a washcloth
    Kent silvertex
    BOMBED Soap Commander inspiration
    HYTONE 6/8 full hollow spike
    C.O.Bigelow white label lotion
    After skipping yesterdays shave, today's shave felt wonderful. I stropped up the HYTONE for today. Three slow passes left me soooo smooth and feels so much better than the scruff of before. Whoda knew the marvels yuzu could do, love this stuff. I've been working on synthetic technique, the little kent came up with big league lather. Finished the whole show ny letting the Bigelow soak in while I dried up and restropped the HYTONE.
    Hope y'all did as well, or better. 20160710_113252_resized.jpg

    Guy the scalloped bar is smoother than the OC. It gives that same close Timeless shave. ;)

    I had forgotten how good KMF cream is. Pleasant aroma, great face feel and excellent cushion and slickness. The aggressive E4 was turned into a mild tech like instrument with this cream and the splash of Stetson left no burn at all, but I am Dolphin smooth. Have a blessed day gentlemen.[​IMG]

    Thank you, Doug! I can't take full credit, as the razor is on loan from @Drygulch. That was the star of the show today!

    Cold water 3.gif

    Blade: Chinese Schick
    Razor: Bunny V3 Injector
    Brush: Omega 10049 boar
    Lather: TSD Tabac-type
    Post: Witch hazel splash, Nivea sensitive balm
    WTG, touch-up

    Decent shave today - not my best. The lather wasn't as slick and protective as the past couple of days. For me, the Bunny razor has worked best with slick and hydrated lather. I didn't get it to the right point today.

    A couple of tiny nicks on my neck where I had angle struggles again. The angle for my upper face is much improved but I'm still experiencing problems on my neck. More time with the Bunny would certainly avail itself to better and better shaves.

    Hope you all have a great day!

    Hi Friends,

    at this high temperatures (31° Celsius today), i wanted a Menthol-Shave.

    [​IMG]
    PREP Shaving Cream / Gillette Fat Handle Tech / Personna Med. Prep / Plisson Synthetic / Tüff Sensitiv pinped with Menthol

    What a nice, cool shave. I´ve used the PREP Shaving Cream for the first time ever today. It was sealed. After one use i have to say, that i´m sad, that this Cream will not be produced anymore. Rich, shiny, slick and cushiony lather with the Plisson. Not as cool as the green Proraso, but noticable.It comes with a very nice scent. If you like Camphor, go for it. The Razor did a very fine job again. I know why the Fat Handle Tech is one of my most loved razors. It is such a Beauty...:love055: I think i pimped my Tüff Aftershave a bit too much, because my eyes started watering immediately after splashing it on. :lyrtuy5: But that was worth the cooling which comes after that...

    Have a great time, have fun, enjoy your shaves and take care.

    Greetings
    Thorsten​
