December 2018 30 Day Rule/Focux Pix & Discussion

Great picture, Charlie!

 

DECember; is today the 12th day?

Proraso Red SS
Vulfix 2235a badger
Suribachi bowl
'46-'47 Aristocrat
Personna blade
Proraso Red AS
After doing a Badger Brush Focus either I got better or my expectations approach reality. I used to think this brush was too floppy but that's in comparison to boars. Between soap, bowl, & brush my makeshift hot water scuttle performed quite well. Same for the Personna on it's 4th use in the Flawsome 'Crat. Three passes with just a little missed on my chin. The sandalwood AS went on quietly. Headed to my parents house shortly. I've been defrosting, rearranging, and tossing freezer burnt foods. Dad's mother was a young adult during the Depression. Some of her "keep the pantry stocked" attitude rubbed off. That explains his six freezers. Now he'll have one each for meat, veg, and fruit. There's venison in the bottom of one, but it's been there a while. Only three more to work.
Good Shaves Y'all!

 

At this date in our survey, we have a tie for first between my razors and my beautiful self, with my soaps&creams third, but looking to challenge. Looks like my cookies and my duffnuts need to get their act together if they want to compete.

 

Excellent picture, Joseph! Congrats on finishing up the tub of XXX!

 

All the shave reports and photos were excellent today Gentlemen! Today was a no shave day for me because I stayed home from work today sick. I'm feeling a bit better now.

Hump day!!

Huge Shavette Fu post !!!

Great shave and photo Perry. I know you are happy the week is just about over.

Excellent travel photo Brian. Hope the trip is going well.

That brush brings a smile to my face each time you post it.

Love the B&W Jim. Nothing wrong at all with father daughter time. She will always be your little girl.

Great shave Charlie. The Big Bomber handle looks very nice with the R41 head.

You have arrived if you can lather Williams.

Excellent work getting through the soap. Congrats.

Wonderful photo and shave Bruce. You inspired me to break out the Karve tomorrow morning.

I love the brush Mark. You have an excellent collection of Chubby 2 Synthetic brushes.

Until you started posting, I never realized that so many of the Gillette parts could be mixed and matched. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge.

It is officially Wednesday. Declan looks happy. I hope you feel better soon.

Great shave Gary. You have made real progress towards shaving daily.

Excellent shave Rick.

 

Thank you Gents.

 

Thank you Clint!

This time of year is ridiculously busy at work. Healthcare, pay adjustments, department reorganizations, you name it. Between that and kids activities it’s nuts. No way to keep up here. Yesterday’s shave pic will have to do...

Oh, I also realized I’ve gone full on dark side apparently, since I haven’t picked up a DE in a couple months. I may be here a while, as my skills are more than adequate, but will take much more time to be a Jedi master. Much training, will I need.

 

Thank you everyone

 

Great shave Randy! Hopefully you can get a little rest in the coming days.

@RyX it lathers really nice, and it has a mild scent but I’m not sure how old this one is. It is a vegan soap no tallow listed. Here is the ingredient list on the back of the tub. I really like they way it performs, the only drawback is it seems to dry up rather quickly. I have to add water for each lathering. Hope this info helps Rick.

 

Great shave Randy. Maybe the end of year stuff will be over soon. Get some rest when you can.

 

Nice combo Aaron.

Congrats Joseph. Synth or boar for my favs

Stunning pic Bruce! Can't stop looking at it.

 

Wonderful picture, Bruce!

 

Fantastic picture, Mark!
