30 Day Rule/Focus; January 2024. All Are Welcome!

Very nice Proraso shave Barry.

 

Fabulous shave Chris

 

Thank you Joe.

 

Thanks Joe. Yes, it is the sample that I gave you.

 

Nice shave and setup Chris. Saponificio Varesino is a luxury soap that has its fans. It is a hard soap and is known for its mild scents. Glad you like it.

 

Awesome shaves and setup Barry.

 

Thank you Joe

Thank you Joe
Mild, but good performance. One can easily offset the price by just using less, I guess, Yes I did enjoy using it for sure.

 

Thanks Joe.....it caught my eye as well.

Take care.

 

Good work this morning. I dunked the Barbasol into the tap water(well, held it under)to get it to be a little thicker upon application. I like thickness, not squiggly-snake coming out of a can. Success almost everywhere. I left a little just under a nostril n North Porcupine. No cuts or polka-dots, and the one aforementioned Knick. One pass. I do like the Stephan Bay Rum A.S. very much. I add it my list of "I just can't be without this". Super Duper Outstanding.

 

SRS # 1025

Rating: 5 / 5

Razor: Thiers-Issard Super Gnome Extra
Brush: MrEE Limited Edition #017 Cashmere 24 mm
Lather: Cella Crema da Barba
Aftershave: Cella Milano
Additional Care:
Omega Alum
Dickenson’s Original Witch Hazel
Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm

Well this shave met the missus seal of approval, especially the scent of the Cella Milano aftershave.

I did the usual three passes with the straight which resulted in a super close ending. Staying inside for most of the day as I do not feel like braving this cold weather. It is taking longer than usual to adapt to the cold laser temperatures following my return from the Southern Den.

Hope you all have a great day gentlemen.

 

Thank you Joe.

 

Thank you Joe.

 

Awesome shave and setup Joe. It's wise that you slowly get acclimated to the cold after being in Florida for many days. We only have 59 days until Spring.

Good evening.

Straight Razor Shave #521
5/8 C-MON
Rockwell Synthetic Brush
Pedro Fiasco's Limoncello SS and AS
Stirling Alum Block
Modessa Witch Hazel
Beard Growth: 24.5 hrs



I went with one of my C-Mon razors for today's shave. I love the very tart scent of Limoncello and it's slick lather. I really hydrated the soap so that it was a thin lather. Sometimes, I like it that way so that it's still very slick and it makes it much easier to rinse off the blade.
Here's my lather:



I only needed 2 passes for a smooth, comfortable and error-free shave.
I had very little alum feedback. Did my usual finish to end this shave. I am happy with it. Take care.
