SoS: March 13, 2017 - March 19, 2017

Last night:



~Artists Club DX ~ Chubby 2 Synthetic ~ Stirling Limes~¥

 

So much snow falling and blowing here therefore not to use menthol stuff was a good idea. The Erasmic Supreme stick smells lovely, lathers like a champ with great skincare. I splashed on some Booster Mosswood aftershave which felt wonderful. An awesome BBS shave!

 

Nice setup, nice photo

Good shave with the I1 today. Smooth and comfortable. The soap was new to me and I didn't get great lather from it. I bowl lathered instead of my usual face lather as I had a small dime-sized sample to try out. Decent performance from the soap. A friend of mine, who I converted to wet shaving a little over a year ago, had this soap and let me try a little bit. Overall a good shave with no complaints.

Have a great day!

 

Hump Day Shave my Friends:


Razor: Merkur Progress // Blade: Derby Premium // Soap: Saponificio Varesino Felce Aromatica // Brush: Rubberset Replica // AS: Weleda // Postshave: Weleda AS Balm

Good shave. Even this combination of Razor and Blade works fine. I had a few pimples / spots or a little razorburn on my neck, so this shave was not that comfortable as the last ones. But it was ok. The soap delivered slick and very protective lather. The biggest surprise was the Aftershave and the Balm from Weleda. I found it the last days in my cabinet under the sink. The Aftershave as well as the Balm has a scent, which you either love or hate. For me it´s okay, because it fades away relatively quick. The Balm is stunning...applied on the skin, it creates a thin layer which protects the skin and makes it super smooth and soft. Really a good find.

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

Greetings

Today's shave
Hot water wash with a washcloth
Semouge 620
Cyril R Salter French Vetiver
Matador safety razor
Astra sp (1)
Crusellas vetiver a/s
Today's shave was nice. I always like the funkiness of this shave cream. I used my matador solid comb, i haven't used it much. I ordered it because i love the open comb elegante. This razor would be great for those who chase aggressive. The large gap makes it posible that i may have not touched the safety bar (felt like it anyway). I felt done at two passes, did the third for ritual. One tiny spot of blood on my neck, smooth as glass. Finished with the candy sweet Crusellas, love the contrast of the two vetiver scents, they meld into a nice combo.
Hope y'all did as well, or better.

 

Love it, howd it do?
My matador felt similar.

 

Beautiful setup, I especially like the 100T!

Day 20 of 30 days of straights

Another day with my Henckel 6/8 Round Toe, and another nice shave. Not quite BBS and with 2 small cuts, but very nice.

I am liking the ABC more every day. It is a very slick croap, easy to lather, and smells great (assuming you like almond).
