    Quick pic tonight as I still have some work to do

    BBS on 2 passes and touch ups. Very very smooth shave - I tried something called buffing that I'd watched on Youtube. But it worked on my chin to get it smooth I usually have trouble.

    A wonderful evening shave. A 2 pass with the BG and Super combo gave a BBS result. Smooth, clean and refreshed. Couple of cold ones and a pair of steaks on the grill. Don't get much better than that Gents. Have a great one..... :eatdrink047:

    I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Mitchell's Wool Fat face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #224 synthetic brush. I did the two passes with the Gillette New Improved and Gillette Silver Blue blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Pinaud Clubman AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Brush - paa 400 with a tuxedo knot
    Soap - de Harris Marlboro

    A/s - the Veg :smiley respect:


    This razor is sooo light and surprisingly mild. I thought it would feel more like the hd500, but it doesn't. I ended up with a whole of of burn but it's due to shaving sooner than I normally would. Big evening with my son .

    Tonight's shave was with a French Faux Frame-Back(Rattler). I had a fantastic 2 pass shave, that went very smooth. I had a DFS with the first pass, and after the second, a BBS shave. I do like these vintage razors. Never a dull shave.

    Razor- French, "Leon Pelleray". Faux Frame Back
    Brush- Omega 10066
    Soap- The Village Soap Smith. Woodsy, unknown scent. Soy Wax base.
    Aftershave- Florida Water
