J&T® purpleheart / Oumo Brush synth.
Eufros "Dama de Noche" shaving soap (sample).
RazoRock Game Changer GC84-P / Stork Ti "Paladin" handle.
Gillette 7 O'Clock Sharp Edge (4).
Novaya Zarya "Flower of Brocard" EdC.

 

That brush looks like an Omega Boar 10019?

 

Actually No, Its A Synthetic, Unknown Brand

 

I have a shave factory branded omega 10019 which looks exactly the same.

Are you sure its synthetic? I have never seen synthetic fibres fall like yours and it looks damp, which synthetics dont do?

 

It does seem an Omega!

They definitely do not seem synthetic and for the reasons you list.
And... last but not least, their looks.

 

Good picture Gary.

TOST Thursday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Morning TOST Shaving Soap
Tom's 3D Printed Brush
Enders Speed Shaver
Schick Proline
CWR
Aqua Velva Blue Ice AS

My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Morning TOST Shaving Soap face lathered well with Tom's 3D Printed Brush. I did two passes with the Enders Speed Shaver razor with a Schick Proline blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Aqua Velva Blue Ice AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Route 66 Bourbon Jungle today. 20 seconds to load the Elite Razor Manchurian White brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Vintage Gillette Platinum Plus still in the Gillette Slim. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Stirling Executive Man aftershave.

Good picture and setup Perry. Great looking brush!

 

Thursday morning:

Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/Gillette day 4
Stirling Glacial Margaritas in the Arctic SS
Stirling Glacial Unscented ASB
Alcolado Glacial Menthol Splash
Bleu de Chanel EdP

As if the regular Stirling MITA isn’t cold enough this Glacial version has three times more menthol in it so you could imagine the freeze it gives. The scent and lather, as well as the postshave care are all the exact same, but unless you can tolerate intense menthol DON’T and I mean DO NOT touch this soap because you’re going to suffer and I mean SUFFER. Even the Glacial Unscented balm is as cold as hell, although the soothing and moisturizing are fantastic. The Alcolado Glacial splash felt frigid in a heavenly way. Three passes gave me a banger of a BBS shave!

 

○Senator/Super Stainless
○Glacial Obsidian

2 pass BBS

I like this soap. Not cold but close to it...very, very cooling and wonderful licorice fragrance.

 

Good looking shave Jeff.

 

Thank you, Doug! That brush was a PIF from @clint64. He restored it some time ago. I really enjoy it.

An excellent 'utilitarian' shave. I say that only because I grew up with Palmolive and familiarity often breeds contempt.

3 passes for a face feeling finish.

 

Thanks my friend!

 

Great setup! Awesome picture amigo!

 

Thanks.
