Super Sunday Shave Patrick! Have an awesome day!

February Focus

AoS Sandalwood (R.I.P.)~~Simpson PL8~~Dovo 91~~Armani Code Absolu
Crossed the finish-line with the AoS Sandalwood Shaving Cream

The final lather was as lovely as the first. This one was created with the noble assistance of my PL8.

The sight of a finished soap container is something to behold---

Today's razor was suggested by Joe @Trigger the Dovo 91.
This is a fun razor to use and the edge is outstanding.
No problems achieving a fantastic shave---without any mishaps.
For the last time, probably in my lifetime, I washed off the AoS cream (I have a few pucks of the tallow hard soap)
and with the help of the Dickinson's witch hazel, my skin was ready to receive
an application of Proraso aftershave balm.
Today's FOTD© is Armani Code Absolu.
Notes:

Dr. Mrs. Primo just walked by and---unsolicited, said:

Wow, Dave. You guys got it. We only have a dusting this morning. Maybe @JACarbone and @Trigger could stop by and broom off the steps on the way to your place? The frozen lasagna is thawing now. Don't want to send them away on an empty stomach.

 

Thank you Patrick.

 

Lovely shave Barry. I hope you have a wonderful Sunday

Great shave and photo Patrick.

Wonderful shave Dave. Both the Gibbs and the brush look fantastic.

Excellent head shave Patrick.

Beautiful lineup and photo Pierpaolo.

Congrats on finishing the shave cream Joseph. The wife's approval on scent is always a huge bonus

 

Very cool Dave. Ours was mostly sleet. We did get enough dusting to turn the lawn white. There was enough ice left in the shade for a me to take a wintery SOTD photo this morning.

 

Thanks, Clint. You can't be far behind with the lavender.

 

February 7 SOTD

Shavette Shave #243
Parker SRB
Rockwell 1/2 DE Blade (1)
JR #290 Synthetic Brush
Tabac Shave Stick
Pinaud Clubman Classic Aftershave
Dickenson's WH (not pictured)
Nivea for Men ASB (not pictured)
Whiskers: 46 hrs

Today is the last shave of the Parker shavette mini focus.

There aren't enough words of praise for Tabac. It truly is a top performer and despite the naysayers, I like the scent. I got a nice, wet slick lather that made the razor slide down my face with 2 days growth like it was nothing. After one pass, I already had a BBS - and could have stopped right there. Of course, it helps to have a fresh blade. Two passes gave me a near BBS shave and I was very happy with it. I didn't need any pickups. I didn't get any blood loss and irritation was not present. I followed with Dickenson's witch hazel, Nivea balm and the Clubman aftershave to finish.
It's been a wonderful 5 Parker shavette shaves. In fact, it's the first time that I did 5 Parker shavettes shave consecutively. Ok, Joe, Danny and Charlie, I am passing the baton to you guys to finish on a high note. I enjoyed this week's shaves with you guys! To you and the rest of the guys, have an awesome day!

 

Awesome setup and I am sure it was a great headshave! Have a great day Patrick!

 

Translation: Great shave!

 

Thanks Clint

 

Thanks Joe

 

It started to snow at about 9:30 this morning.

 

Awesome way to end the focus Joe. I wish you luck with the R102 next week

 

I might have had an "OUTTA....." this morning, but for a real tough time negotiating my way through N.W. Porcupine Alley. 4 red splotches-that's right 4. I thought I had set up the Razorock soap for good enough lather, but it would appear I was too light along that location. Another interesting thing about it....I may have gone too SLOW in that area. I'm not sure I can explain that muhself, other than to say I have conditioned muhself to ease up at NW and NE Porcupine. Thankfully, I did well enough everywhere else, including some "Overtime" along N. Cactus Nation. No more cuts/Knicks other than the dreadullness at Porcupine. 2 passes. I most certainly hope I do better there tomorrow. The Razorock Tuscan Oud soap and AgadirMen A.S. resulted in a Very Excellent shave-like I said, I was headed for OUTTA but the result from both edges of N. Porcupine had something to say about that.
