May 22, 2023 OREN Razor Thäter Olive Wood Synthetic Feather Pro MdC Fougère Myrsol Agua Balsamica I was still under the weather yesterday and just skipped the shave entirely. So this is the shave I had lined up for yesterday. Up front, this razor looks like it belongs in the kitchen peeling vegetables. Despite its looks, the razor did a wonderful job peeling away the whiskers while leaving the skin smooth and blood free. I finally gave up and went to the doctor's office earlier today. Now I am waiting on the pharmacy to fill a prescription that I hope provides some relief.
I am pondering my next 3017. Being that the warmer days are upon us, I was thinking along these lines... Art of Shaving Lavender Art of Shaving Lemon Art of Shaving Peppermint Art of Shaving Rose Absolute (creams) Klar Kabinett ETHOS Lavender Suprême Fine Lavender Deluxe (soaps) Input greatly appreciated.
I would think either AOS Peppermint on Lavender Suprême. I am curious what you think of the Lavender Suprême.
Day 33 I shaved this weekend at the lake, but didn't take out this focused soap. It was a nice long weekend. I hadn't used the 'Canadian Rocket' in awhile and it did a fine job early this morning.
Can't give an opinion on this. I haven't tried any of these, Maestro. I have used the AoS Sandalwood, but not those scents.
Midweek and working the puck like it owes my money and is avoiding my calls. Kicked of the week with my 2011 R41 followed a J-West and then German blade. No room for the brushes.... well I just forgot to add them to the picture.
Just read that MWF is being reformulated. (right after I 3017'd my last puck). Nothing left to do, but order two more of the old formula! Get 'em while you still can. This is on par with the Williams reformulation.
Day 34 was yesterday and then I travelled out of town. Didn’t check a bag, so I didn’t take either the focussed soap or a safety razor. A decent hotel shave and I’m looking forward to sharing in the den tomorrow morning after I get home in a few hours
Thursday, May 25 AoS Lemon~~Rubberset 400/3~~Gillette #44 RFB/Sharp Star~~Vintage Balenciaga Day One OK, I have chosen my next 3017. This cream has hardened over the years and I am attempting to soften it with H2O. I was somewhat successful, but it isn't the consistency it was when new. HOWEVER, the lather that it makes it top-notch and every bit as good as the day it was manufactured. The lemon scent is subtle, yet satisfying. Great slickness and protection. The RFB was made in England for the French market. Day 2 of the Sharp Star. These are such great blades. This 3017 may be interrupted, as Dr. Mrs. Primo and I are taking the RV to Niagara Falls and points east caravanning with my daughter and son-in-law and my newest granddaughter, Reagan. Proud "Pop" (as I am known) wanted to share some pictures: Reagan Lee Selah Jude
The Ethos Lavender is Frank's best soap, imo. The lather and scent are top-notch. It's a keeper and that's one of the reasons I didn't choose to 3017 it.
Almost chose it. It is my favorite "menthol" soap. AoS really knocked it out of the park with this one. I didn't choose to 3017 it, because it still has a creamy consistency and I decided to work my through the creams, which have solidified over the years.
