    Another fine shave with the Leviathan!

    Razor - 1912 Star
    Blade - GEM Personna SS (6)
    Soap - Leviathan
    Pre-shave - Prorasso Blue ( I forgot to add to photo!)
    Brush - Simpson T2 Trafalgar
    Post - Thayers with witch hazel & Leviathan Balm
    AS - Leviathan

    I do love this soap and the balm & aftershave! I don't bloom this one. I heated the bowl and brush with HOT water while I wash my face. Cool start today @ 48 degrees! I shake out most of the water from the brush and load it with the soap. I did have to add a couple splashed of water to get my nice creamy lather. I do not find this to be a very thirsty soap. Very slick! The razor glides easily. I did a 2-pass shave with no cleanup. WTG & ATG. Alum bar was silent. The balm is the kind where a little goes a LONG way. Nice stuff!

    I am set for the day! Theo approved!

    This morning, I finished off the Razorock Italian Shaving Soap.Clubman Pinaud A.S. trifects. The brush was the Albion 1925 synthetic. A really nice job all around, but for one area that should never get shaved but I did it today-a section of my lower lip. About 0:20 at the loading dock for the Albion to be complete for first pass. Went fine. Second pass was when the lip cut occurred. I see I wasn't too successful in going after the top of South Porcupine. Not a bad cut, but it's there. The frustration of the cut threw me off stride from doing a better job down at Cactus than I should have, but it was OK. Great double-whammy finish from Clubman Special Reserve and the Mutamyaez(Oud)cologne from House of Swiss Arabian. Super-duper Excellent.

    No, you see his tail! He is far too fluffy now to see anything else!

    Tail is on one side of his back, ears&face on the other. Quite a fluffy cat indeed.

    Very nice shave and setup Danny. The MARS razor is aptly named because it looks out of this world.

    Nice setup and shave Gary. I don't buy PAA soaps, but I like the simple label.

    Mail Call!

    Stirling shipped my order on Monday and got it today. Two day priority mail was on time.

    I got the Tsuka shave soap, aftershave and EdT. I also included a travel alum block.They included a sample of their almond creme bar soap.
    Supposedly, this is the same scent as my TSD LE Blood on Steel 2019, but I just smelled the items and it's not nearly the same. It's a more darker, masculine scent, but I still like it. I will be using the soap and the aftershave for this evening's shave.
