    Shaving recipe for today.

    Prep: Warm shower:/Asda Tingly Mint & Tea Tree Shower Gel.

    Pre:
    Cold wet flannel to my face.
    Pears ~ Transparent Bar Soap With Mint Extracts. + Nuage Menthol shaving Oil.
    Brush: Anbbas 24mm Synthetic.
    Face Lather.
    Lather: Kent Luxury Shaving Soap.
    Blade: Astra Superior Stainless. (D3)
    Razor: Parker 24c.

    Post:
    Cold water face wash with brush squeezings, Cold Water Face Rinse. /Homemade (~Spring/Summer mix~) Lemon, Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Essential Oils.3 Menthol Crystals, Mixed Together With 200ml of Care+Witch Hazel./Nivea Men ~ Sensitive Cooling PSB. /Brut Sport Style ASL.

    Greetings,

    Out of the four DE open comb razors i own and have shaved with the The Parker 24C i find the mildest yet efficient enough to give a close comfortable acceptable shave... Open comb razors have a reputation of been aggressive, they can be, but any razor can, which can be misleading to someone who has yet to shave with one i find them very smooth & efficient and match up really well with most DE blades, the only thing which i find you have to do with the parker 24C as with all the parker razors i own ,is to apply a steeper shaving angle to get the best shaving results.

    A enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off a with a generous splash of Brut Sport Style ASL.

    My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.;)

    Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

    Razor: Lupo .95
    Blade: Gillette Platinum (4)
    Brush: Teton Zen Series "Bob Ross"
    Soap: First Line The Weight
    AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
    AS 2: Nivea Deep
    Fragrance: Ferrari Scuderia Black
    Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 916

    Pulled the Lupo today and have to say I do prefer it over the Karve and much less money for SS versus the brass to maintain. I enjoyed revisiting the Karve and won't rule out a future BST purchase but happy with the arsenal I have now..............I think. Thanks again Danny and will get them off today or tomorrow. 1st time using First Line soap and WOW what a good base. The scent is a great one too. I saw Todd use this in his video and the cause struck a chord immediately as it hit very close to home. Here is what is stated about the soap and scent:

    "This is a release that has been a year in the making. I contacted artist Anthony Genuardi to create art that represents loss, mental trauma and the after effects of those events. This is not just a project for first responders or military personnel but dedicated to any person who has experienced any traumatic event.

    The scent notes of this fragrance, showcase some of the means people use to cope with such tragedies.

    The specific fragrance notes selected (in no particular order) include Whiskey, Tobacco, Gunpowder, Vanilla Sugar, Rose and Patchouli. Other notes that complement the fragrance are Saffron, White Musk, Pink Pepper and Jasmine."


    Not only a great project but a great soap. I will say it is extremely thirsty and will take any water you can throw at it. When you do it just keeps getting a better and slicker lather. Sticking with the same frag today as it is a good one that just works with the soap and Nivea scents. Another trip to Lexington with the FIL this morning. Coffee.................more Coffee !! Have a stupid fun day Folks !!
