Have a great day!​

 

Today's shave
Hot water wash with nivea mens face wash and a washcloth
Ralph Lauren safari silvertip
Bombed Route 66 Rum Runner
KB Extra #67 5/8 half hollow spike
Pinaud Special Reserve
Today's shave was nice.
Scents seem a bit manlier than I'm accustomed to, guess I'll have to stand a bit taller today.
Hope y'all did as well, or better.

 

Menthol Thursday
I just felt like a menthol shave today, and Krampert's is still my favorite face chiller. The Frostbite aftershave is especially good, and the soap is top notch as well - Soap Smooth makes an excellent vegan lather. My three day old stubble never stood a chance.
Prep: Myrsol Emulsion
Soap: Krampert's Finest Frostbite
Brush: Brothers Bristles Bronze Shadow
Razor: Futur on six
Blade: Personna Lab Blue
AS: Krampert's Finest Frostbite

You must have one tough beard to bend your razor like that!

 

Hahahaha!!

 

Parker Variant razor
Laser Ultra blade
VDH/TGN Silver Tip franken brush
Taconic Mint & Eucalyptus SC
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Skin Bracer A/S w/added menthol

I"ve used the Laser blades in other razors with so-so results but in the Parker it was fabulous. Nice comfortable, close shave that suits me just fine. Finished with a liberal dose of the Skin Bracer that froze my face and liked it. Now go enjoy your day folks.

 

Now that is one funky razor.

 

I love those scents! Smelling good there, Joseph!

 

SOTD December 29, 2016

Blade: Chinese Schick
Razor: Schick I1 injector
Brush: Semogue 1520 boar
Lather: Proraso White
Post: Witch hazel splash enhanced with Barbasol Pacific Rush aftershave, Nivea sensitive balm
WTG, XTG, XTG (cheeks only)

Nice shave with this combination. It's been a while since I've used Proraso White. I love the ease of lathering, the budget price, and the nice little menthol touch, but I found it to be a middle-of-the-road soap for today's shave. The post-shave feel really left something to be desired. I guess I'm getting spoiled with better and better soaps. I did two passes and then an extra WTG on my cheeks. Smooth, comfortable shave in the end. I'll continue to use the Proraso off and on until it's finished but I don't think it will be one that I'll rush to replace.

Have a great day!
