SoS; March 2018

Good picture Jim.

 

I do like the look of that brush.

 

Today's shave was with another newish razor. I had a very smooth, but sensitive 2 pass shave, due to the Yeti Snot. That stuff makes me feel every frozen hair on my face. I ended up with a near BBS shave. It's been a while since the Yeti snot was used, and I was tearing up, the entire shave. Coooold, but very slick stuff.


Razor- J.A.Henckels, "Friodur 451" Twin Werks, Solingen Germany.
Brush- Stirling Boar
Soap- Yeti Snot
Aftershave- Avon "Island Lime". Straight Eight Decanter.

 

Good setup and picture Jim.

Sorry, no time for a pic. Didn't have time to shave the past few days, but had a wonderful and smooth BBS shave today. Aqua Velva Musk pairs very well with this soap.

 

Thanks, Doug!

 

Thank you Doug - and I am partial to those Avon automobiles!

 

They are eye catching decanters.

 

Today's shave
Fatboy Friday
Hot water wash with a washcloth
L'Occitane Plisson
Reef Point Test Depth
Gillette Executive (D3)(9)
Rockwell Swedish ss (4)
Reef Point Test Depth aftershave balm
Today's shave was very nice. The Plisson dry onto bloomed test depth made very nice lather. Three passes with the executive, the gold seemed very nice (having not used a gold tone razor in a while), left me smooth and comfy. Finished with the matching aftershave balm. Nice shave,
Hope y'all did as well, or better.

 

Obviously a great soap!

 

Thank you Amigo. Happy Friday!
