SoS: April 2020

PAA Ascension Twist Copper
Gillette 7 O’Clock SP’s (Black Ninjas)
Graydog 26mm Badger
Taylor of Old Bond St. Cedarwood shave cream
Clubman Reserve Whiskey Woods after shave splash
Mercedes-Benz Le Parfum Eau de Parfum

Rainy & gloomy but, no excuse for giving oneself a fine shave. Though we’re in spring, still a bit on the cooler side around the 50’s today, nothing better than a classic Woods, Booze and Leather type scents to get one started on a good note.
Great day and shaves to all....​

•Irish Spring, face lathered

4 days growth, 2 pass BBS. Ahhh...that's better.



Between bar soap and alum witch hazel, face feels very dry and tight. This calls for Lucky Tiger tonic and Roman Brio before I head to the post office.

 

Like the B&W Steve. Still rolling with the S8!

Saturday Straights' Shave

The Barbearia Ribeira do Porto Shave Cream face-lathered well with Jayaruh #397 brush. Two passes and touch ups with the H. Böker 5/8 gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with PSC Caffeinated After Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Thanks Gary!
