One of the best shaves I've had lately - this Krampert's Frostbite soap overflowed while I was lathering up and I had to do some cleaning up before I started my shave. Truthfully, I overloaded my brush because I forgot that it's not the same type of formula as a Stirling soap. The menthol effect was so nice and the post-shave feeling was great. The matching aftershave smells so awesome but it never interferes with a fragrance and not only is it as cold as hell - you don't need any balm because the moisturizing is so good. Three passes did the job for me! Have a good one!

20 February 2018 An effortless, 2 pass, minor touch-up, DFS+ shave this morning. Actually, make that a DFS shave. Just running my fingers down my right jaw line and I detect a wee bit-o-stubble. Be right back....... OK, that's better. Grabbed my Merkur 45 travel razor which I use for post shave touch-ups on occasion and took care of that stubble. Plus, I got to splash on some more AV Ice Blue.

Last Night 2/19/2018 The razor head is a Laresche, its a vintage razor that was made for bazaars. the handle is a PAA 2 piece. Cool shave, sharp star on 2nd shave is Russian excellence.. Mother Russia approves...
Tabacstag I think this blade aged too quickly, this shave was a little more rough than usual. I got a couple weepers on my neck, but nothing major. My skin feels soft and comfortable thanks to the underrated Tabac balsam.

Razor - Canadian fat handle tech Blade - Astra sp Brush - custom cedar synthetic Soap- Tuscan oud Post - lavender witch hazel A/s - pinaud musk Great shave this morning. Set up was good and I can’t complain!
The Mamba walks right up to that too mild line but I think I'm ok with it. Two full passes required for the head shave but I was in no particular hurry and enjoyed a nice mild shave. Keeps your skills sharp. Second shave on the Tian Li. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
