    Prep: Cold water and Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap
    Blade: Personna
    Razor: Schick B1
    Brush: Artisan badger
    Soap: Soap Commander 13A▲
    Post: Witch hazel, Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill aftershave

    Easy shave this morning. Two passes with the B1 for a nice shave. The 13A▲ soap continues to be a stand-out. It has a lemon element in the scent profile so the Stirling Lemon Chill works quite well. Plus it's hot as blazes and I enjoy the face freeze.

    Enjoy your day!

    [​IMG]Baume.be~~Simpson "The Duke"~~Friodur~~Aqua Velva​

    Combine a one-pass shave Tuesday with no-shave yesterday, and you get some serious stubble to be removed.
    Just the proving ground for the Baume.be and the Twins.
    I talked a bit about the Baume Tuesday and today I decided to bowl-lather the product.
    Lot's of water with very minimal soap resulted in a slightly yellowish, albeit shiny lather.
    Ethereal in scent, the Duke 3 spread the super-smooth goodness over the area to be de-foliated.
    The Friodur was freshly lapped on a CrOx Linen strop, followed by my Slavin Russian leather.
    I kid you not when I say I could have quit after the WTG pass. It was that good.
    Skipped the XTG and did some ATG clean up work and...voilà! DFS++
    Alum was mute...:shocked002:
    Thayer's was... :sport026:
    Aqua Velva (double-dose;)) was...:love055:    ​

    Wonderful post, Joseph! I remember watching a tutorial video of Lynn Abrams where he used Baume.be. He was quite high on it as well.
