February 2020 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Beautiful picture, Clint! I may have missed it, but what are your thoughts on the Trafalgar and the JAWS?

 

Excellent picture, Perry!

 

February 24 SOTD:

Razor: Razorock SS Lupo
Blade: Polsilver
Brush: PAA Starcraft
Lather: Wholly Kaw King of Bourbon
Aftershave: Wholly Kaw King of Bourbon
Additional Care:
Unrefined Shea Butter

I fell hopelessly behind this weekend, so I am skipping ahead. I did get a second shave in with the Lupo and Dead Sea combination yesterday, which was as good as the first. RR soaps are not my favorite performers, although they certainly get the job done. The scent of Dead Sea is so unique in my collection, so I will keep it.

Today, I went with an old favorite, King of Bourbon. The scent is just terrific, and the performance is easily among the better soaps I have. The Lupo is proving to be a very efficient, smooth razor. Two passes and a near DFS. Hard to beat on a Monday morning. I hope everyone has a great day!

 

I am working on that article you suggested...I have writer's block at the moment.

 

Aaand....a fine shave this morning with Jeeves Bay Rum Soap followed by Stephan Bay Rum aftershave. Y'know , there isn't much of a scent to either product, but the main feature of both is that they provide solid skin food. Course I'm not saying there is NO scent-something is there, but the FEEL and skin health come right out. Two good passes, good work in cutting into some growth on the northeast side(looking into the mirror)of my neck, and also at both jaw lines. One small weeper, otherwise no issues. \
Quite Excellent.

 

Well, what did you expect....all of your shave descriptions are "articles".

 

Nice shave, Paul.

 

thank you!

 

Beautiful shave Jim.

Good morning fellas!
Shavette shave #139
Dovo Shavette
Personna Hairshaper Blade (5)
Rockwell Synthethic Brush
Stirling Sandalwood SS and AS
Nivea ASB
As expected, I didn't get called to work for the 1st day back after break so I got some extra sleep. I just finished this shave so let me get to the post. Everything was in perfect harmony. The Rocky brush produced a nice, creamy, slick and cushiony lather that looked like the professional shave youtubers. I have to say synthetic brushes produce aesthetic lathers on the face. On 40.5 hr growth, the hairshaper still mowed down the "grass" without any problems because this blade was still sharp with 4 shaves prior to this one. Two passes without touchups gave me an IBSS++ without irritation. However, I landed just a tad harder to give me a weep under my nose. An immediate cold rinse took care of it. I really liked the mellow scent of this Sandalwood to keep my mood in the same vain. Splashed the Stirling Sandalwood and then the Nivea to end a nice shave. Have a pleasant day guys!

 

Great shave Terry and glad you are better.

 

Thank you.....y'know, there's so much of that Bay Rum Soap it should qualify for a 3-fer...or even.......JEEVES B.R. WEEK.

 

Wonderful shave, pic and post, Jeff! I just hate it when you're at the final touches of a great shave and the Bloody Bogeyman shows its face.

 

Thanks Jim.

Very nice shave and post, Paul! However, I like a strong smelling Bay Rum like Stirling's.
