    Keep It Simple Shave Week

    C.O. Bigelow
    Jayaruh #303
    AutoStrop B2
    Treet CS SE
    CWR
    Osage Rub

    The C.O. Bigelow Shaving Cream face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #303 synthetic brush. I did two passes with the AutoStrop B2 Razor with a Treet CS SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. The B2 is a mild razor. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Osage Rub, a very cooling experience. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Good morning friends. I'm really enjoying these Muhle R41shaves. It's one very efficient razor. Three passes, smooth and refreshed. I finished with Old Spice. Enjoy your day friends.

    Here's my killer-cold Menthol Monday SOTD:

    Neutrogena Men Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Derby day 2
    Stirling Glacial Wintergreen SS
    Stirling Glacial Wintergreen ASB
    Stirling Glacial Wintergreen WH
    B+M Arctique AS Splash
    Dolce+Gabbana EdT

    Another terrific BBS shave which had me shivering - for a 35C day, a setup like this is a necessity!

    Have a great week!

    I love the scent of this soap but the performance in the past was awful, so I grated and pressed it in the hope of saving it from shower duty.
    Sadly my efforts were in vain, there was a slight improvement (could've imagined it), but the lather was still dissipating and the first pass was a race against time.
    Second pass I rinsed out the brush, and lathered up with the Lea Stick and the difference was night and day, rich, slick, protective lather.
    Ah well, it'll make nice shower soap.
    Happy Shaving one and all.

    Monday

    Prep: Warm Shower-Stirling Scots Pine Sheep
    Soap: RazoRock Tuscan Oud
    Razor: Gillette NEW Short Comb
    Blade: Vintage Gillette Platinum-Plus (7)
    Brush: Elite Razor/WSP Silvertip-24mmx50mm
    Aftershave: RazoRock Tuscan Oud

    WTG-XTG-ATG (adjusted angles for my beard)

    RazoRock Tuscan Oud today. 20 seconds to load the Elite Razor/WSP Silvertip brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Gillette Platinum-Plus blade still in the Gillette NEW Short Comb. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with RazoRock Tuscan Oud aftershave.

    Tom's No Name SE razor
    Gem Stainless blade
    JR #85 brush
    Taconic Eucalyptus Mint SC
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Taconic Eucalyptus Mint A/S

    Resuming shaving after a rather bad start with the TNNSER razor (my fault, not the razor's) I got a wonderfully comfortable, close, smooth shave. This razor is very intuitive and easy to use. I'm BBS and my face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks

    Really? I wouldn't have thought it had a real cooling effect. I'll have another look at that one. LG is a favorite of mine.
