A very nice shave today. Two passes with a bit of touch up for a smooth and comfortable BBS shave. The soap and after shave complimented each other very well for a very nice finish to the shave.

 

I'll be going to the Dollar Tree near me in a day or so. If they have any more, I'll let you know and send you one with the Tuxedo knot for the new handle.

I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Colgate Mug Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #229 synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Gillette NEW LC razor 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...

SOTD 10.30.2017

Pre-shave: hot shower
Shave Cream: Barbasol Sensitive Skin travel size can http://theshaveden.com/forums/threa...m-travel-can-experiment-sensitive-skin.57755/
Razor: Schick Krona
Blade: Personna Red (2)
Post-shave: Dickinson WH, Nivea Sensitive PS Balm, Skin Bracer AS

Another late in the day shave after taking care of grunge chores at the mother's-in-law house. I came home, cracked open a beer and enjoyed a nice shower and shave. Of course, I'm still working through this travel size can of Barbasol... but I opted for my second Schick Krona, a recent acquisition and first-time to use in a shave. While I liked my first Schick Krona (which has a silver TTO knob), I always found it a little "aggressive" and usually ended up with a little bit of blood spilled. This Schick Krona, however, was a pleasure to shave with. This razor didn't draw any blood and left me with a CCS.

 

I love these!
