    Razor: RedTip
    Blade: Voskhod (1)
    Brush: Simpson X3 Best Badger
    PS: Stirling Menthollated Pre-Shave
    SS & AS: Stirling Executive Man

    Quick shave as I'm up early to take my daughter to college prep day at school. Very quick 3 pass shave which was great accept the big section on my jaw that I missed on my last pass. Post shave cleanup with residential slickness took care of it but the AS was cruel. As if to say, "Dont do that."

    Yes thats an older photo with the wrong brush. I was in a hurry.

    I know I said ir before. I love thst RedTip and may need to do a 30 day focus with it only restating soapsor maybe blades.
  13. fine shave and pic Evan..
  14. It may be an older pic, but it is a good one, Evan!

    Prep: Cold water and PAA Cube pre-shave soap
    Blade: GEM PTFE
    Razor: Superior Lather Catcher
    Brush: JR #377 badger
    Soap: Stirling Piacenza
    Post: Witch hazel, Stirling Piacenza aftershave

    Wonderful shave this morning. I forgot how much I enjoy the scent of Piacenza. It dries down to a soapy and citrusy scent on me, very clean. Really nice all around.

    Enjoy your day!

    It never ceases to amaze me how the simplest can lead to the best.
    Just take the Proraso products as the example;
    They don't break the bank, yet offer a magnificent shaving experience.
    The lather is slick, smells great and really protects.
    The Aftershave also has a wonderful scent, the menthol is refreshing and leaves the skin smooth.
    Minimalists could do a lot worse with these two products as their only gear.
    The Med Prep was sharp and although I struggled to find the proper angle with the Feather,
    I was able to buff my way to a DFS.
    The Open Combs have spoiled me.
