September 2019 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

[LQUOTE="b1hart, post: 1663910, member: 21080"]Yes, DFW area. I have the CTS Barbershop, have used it several times in my daily rotation. Purchased early this summer after your posting/enabling here . Not acquainted with The Soap Exchange yet....may check them out.[/QUOTE]
Awwwright-my creativity helped someone with his grooming!! . I have the Grandpa's Barbershop set for some use this or next week. My supporting aftershave for it is Clubman Original(but you probably read that from my comments. As for The Soap Exchange, I have their Lumberjack. I like it a lot. Might try their Texas Leather next.Getting back to CTS for a second, I recently purchased their soap&A.S. of Weekend Rodeo. I've only used it once(both together, that is), but as I try them more often, I'll do a review of them on here.

 

Enablers, all. Especially Gary because he's staying ahead of me in so many scents we agree on. Not sure if these are available in your area Jon - Pinaud? They are relatively inexpensive here in The States. Lime Sec & Citrus Musk have decent longevity for the type.

The twin blades will work in Schick model H or later except for Hydro-magics. They do help the shave in the later milder Schicks. Because the whole line tends to be overlooked by DE users, they trend lower in price. Jump in anywhere!

Coffee by subscription? It's like Enabling of the Future! Good choice going medium dark roast.

If you enjoy your coffee, look into a dark roast. Not sure you can get Community brand there. The Between Roast is my coffee of choice.

Don't let me spoil the suspense but I wonder...
Their website has some information about a new product.

 

Razor: Gillette Super Speed Black Handle Flare Tip (P1) 1970
Blade: Wilkinson Sword (6)
Brush: APShaveCo. Synthetic FAN w/ Elegant Emerald Handle - Extra Dense Shaving Brush - Cream/Brown
Soap: Reef Point Soap Tranquility
Aftershave: Folsom & Co. Shady Past
Bowl: Symmetrical Pottery Dottie Blue & Lt. Purple Bowl

Another good shave with a mild Gillette razor. The brush is not so much a Fan as I sunk it into the handle another 4 mm. It works great and I love the color of the handle. Every thing from the soap to the after shave was excellent.
I'm sure this picture will make some feel right at home.
Have a good day.

GEM MMOC

A very nice shave with the MMOC this morning. This soap has reached the stage where it just seems to regenerate itself at the bottom of the tub...I’d guess at least 10 shaves left, tbh. That takes it well into December at a day a week. If the rumours of Jeeves’s end are accurate, I will miss this scent when the bottle is empty.
Have a great day all!

 

I actually used to drink dark roast, but nowdays it tastes burnt to me. Been trying different brands, but i think i'll stick with the most typical finnish brands, like Kulta Katriina. There is also Juhla Mokka, these must sound really weird to everyone here

 

Great pic, Jim! And all that Gentleman...sigh.

 

Beautiful, Blair!

 

Love the yellows, Gary! I see the C and E outlet by the airport is gone, btw...

 

Thanks Blair
That's right, good times.

Razor: 1912 Gem
Blade: Gem Stainless
Soap:Stirling Deep Blue Sea
Brush: Razorock Plisoft Barber 24
PS: Bloom Water
AS: Proraso Eucalyptus and Menthol

It's going to take some time and practice to get use to that GEM. I'll need to skin stretch just like I do with my SR.

No blood but some irritation.

Yes- agree on those awesome Personna twins. Very generous of John.
Heard from @Screwtape lately?

 

Thank you, Blair!

 

Nice, Jim! I suppose you’re not able to use your regular gym in the mornings. Found a new club?

 

Love that mug, Evan! Awesome.

 

I've heard a little about the rumors., and the new truths..for instance, I was PIFed a 7 oz. puck of soap(Bay Rum), now they're all 4 oz. People have written that Jeeves will go out of business soon...if true, let's see if they do a clearance sale.

 

What a stunning pic, Clint!
Congrats on not having to do jury duty. The one time I was selected, there was a plea bargain the week before the trial was to begin. I was ecstatic. The thought of being a week or two behind at work was making me ill...when I’m retired it would be really interesting.

 

The brush looks great, Terry! Your other ‘pick up’ looks more fun, though...

 

Yup, excellent, Paul!

 

Thank you, Blair! I'm trying to use every SE razor in my den for this month. I think I'll get through them all.
