MUHLE :: SHAVEMAC :: SOAP COMMANDER "INSPIRATION"​

 

A new thread about “pimp brushes”? Mine also rides with the Deeetroit lean. A lather monster fer sure! I believe this thing will deplete a soap puck faster then anything out there.

 

Tuesday morning:

Nivea Facial Wash
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/Astra day 4
RVT Roseline SS
Lubriderm Moisturizer
Aramis EdT

Back to South Africa for this shave - the Roseline soap smells very nice, I must say. Its scent reminds me a lot of Klar Kabinett because it's so rosy!

 

DE89/Custom Heavy Handle Razor
Astra SP Blade
DIY 22mm Maggard Synthetic/Flashlight Handle Brush
Love My Skin Spearmint Soap
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Barbasol Brisk After Shave

A nice cool and refreshing shave today. BBS in two passes and a little touch up.

 

Famex, Tian Li. Fairly aggressive setting, no problem with the one pass ATG head shave program. Likewise fine on the beard. Not the smoothest perhaps but quite efficient.

**It will be kind of blustery, and I've come to decide that my particular Avon 4 Men is best used in the spring& early fall, as opposed to extreme temperatures-thus the "break with tradition"(Tribute Tuesday)I discussed in an earlier post.

One pass shave for a three day growth of beard. I had touched up my blade with a Naniwa 8K and 12K pyramid followed by Gokumyo Suehiro 20K and chromium oxide. A super shave.
