SOS: March 2019

Sunday morning’s action:

Neutrogena Men Facial Wash
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/Minora day 4
Gilly’s Unforgettable SS
Prep ASB
Krampert’s Bay Rum AS Splash
Aramis EdT

I’m very much impressed with the way this Minora blade is performing for me - today was my fourth time using it and it helped me to get a fantastic BBS shave so easily. This Unforgettable soap from Gilly’s in Durban, South Africa has a lovely bay rum scent as well as great lather which is so rich, slick, and protective. A nice massage with the Prep cream and a couple of splashes of the Krampert’s Bay Rum aftershave followed by a little Aramis and I was good to go!

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!

 

Pre: Warm water splash
Brush: Omega 10051 Boar
Soap: P&B Solaris
Razor: Blackland Vector
Blade: Schick Proline P
Post: Warm then cold water rinse, Pitralon Classic ASL

It's the first time I've used this brush and I really like it but, for me the 11137 remains the template for all boar brushes.
Another first was the Vector, only one shave in and the Cobra Classic is looking a bit nervous.

Even though I'm of Scottish descent, I'll raise a glass later in the day to his honor. (It'll be a single malt however!)

Leprechauns heard how much I spent on shaving gear. Came and took almost all of it for their pot of gold. I think they are afraid to fool with the Italians, and that this razor had much better days. I dare not tell them it was a great shave.



Happy St. Patties Day!

Oh....... Don't worry I didn't snitch you guys out with some of your stuff.

Be well.

Shake Sharp v1.0 (1945) is the only razor using DE blades that holds its own with my injector and GEM razors in terms of both efficiency and comfort. Twin BIC blades.

 

Here's how it is for Monday(3-18):

prep-Dial 4 Men Bodywash(Maximum Moisture)in shower
shave-Clubman Shave Cream
razor-Gillette Sensor Deuce Pivot + DisposeABLE

APShaveCo. Elegant Emerald | SynBad 24mm
The New Improved Schick Injector Razor | Personna 74
​

This special edition base, Sláinte, is heavenly! Slickness is significantly improved and post-shave is elite level without question. The St James fragrance is like that of a warm oatmeal cookie with hints of gingerbread. Despite its inclusion of stout beer, it does not smell like a stout beer at all, nor was that its intent.

I couldn't decide on which photo to post, so you're subjected to all four.​

​

 

Beautiful pictures! The F Type is the star!

 

stunning pics sir,

 

All four are terrific. I wouldn't have been able to choose either.

Thank you. I like the Rover handle shape. I've been thinking about adding a Brad Sears Rover to the den.

 

Thank you, gentlemen.

PS Head manager let me have the eight clearance Publix Atra/T-II packs for $1 each. Never hurts to ask twice.

 

Excellent idea. My last knot from him is outstanding.
