Greetings,

(Face & Head Shave)

A new shave set up to start the weekend..

It's been some time since I last done a combined face & head shave with the FaTip Grande and forgot how smooth & efficient this razor is. After the second pass on my head shave I was BBS/dolphin smooth, one of the closest head shave's I've had for a long time. WOW!. The Personna blades are a great match for the Fatip Grande.

The Haslinger soap is a magnificent performer, it reminds me of MWF, Kent, + HWF which all contain lanolin what I instantly liked about it is it lathers up in no time without the addition of blooming creating a wonderful luxurious slick protective lather leaving a superb post shave feel.

An acceptable close comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off a with a few small dollops of Cien Aloe Vera Body Lotion.

My face & precious swede are both feeling super smooth and smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.

 

Thanks Gary

Another Great Shave Barry

Flexible, Favourite, Feather, Fatip, Fine, Felce, whatever grabs my Fancy



25 hours

Prep = cold water splash
Preshave = Brief application of bloom water
Soap = Chiselled Face Cryogen
Brush = Omega 10049 white
Bowl = Timeless
Razor = Gillette Aristocrat 1938 No 15
Blade = Gillette 7 o’clock super platinum Black (2)
Passes = 2 +
Post = CWR, Alum, CWR, brush squeezings, CWR, Thayers. Pinaud Lime Sec, pleasant enough but not as long lasting as I would like

Tears galore but a great shave. The Indian 7 o’clock was definitely smoother today. Might give this a 3rd spin, but that does not usually work for me

Only 33C today, much better, out to lunch with my better half

 

Closed out the Fine combination until next time(which will be soon, here in Fine February). The only area I thought I could improve on was the right cheek, of all places. I went soft, but too fast. Will do better there tomorrow. Nice improvement down at Cactus Nation from yesterday.Porcupine Alley was great, in both ends. Goose eggs on cuts, Knicks, Polka-dots. 2 passes. The Latigo A.S. did me well. Super Duper Outstanding.

 

Wonderful shave Barry! Great setup too!

 

Awesome and definitely a cool shave Chris!

 

SRS # 1233

Rating: 5 / 5

Razor: FA Clauberg CopperKing 6/8
Brush: MrEE Limited Edition #017 Cashmere 24 mm
Pre-Shave: Pears Transparent Soap
Lather: Goodfellas Smile Sea Citrus
Aftershave: Goodfellas Smile Sea Citrus
Additional Care:
Omega Alum
Dickenson’s Original Witch Hazel
Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm

This morning marks my first shave with one of the shave soaps I received as a birthday gift from my daughter. I pick up the aftershave to pair with the soap.

The scent profile is as follows: “The sea breeze and the scent of the ocean air intertwine with intense citrus and floral notes that blend with the strength of the forest, creating something extraordinary and inimitable.
TOP NOTES: Lemon, Apple, Ozonica
MIDDLE NOTES Jasmine, Violet, Lily of the Valley, Rose, Orange Blossom
BASE NOTES: Sandalwood, Amber, Patchouli, Tonka Bean.”

The Mr. EE synthetic easily whipped up a nice lather. I scooped out a small almond size amount of soap, pressed it into a ceramic lather bowl and proceed to let the brush do it magic.


The scent of the soap is very comforting lasting throughout the shave. The lather provided significant cushion to allow for a smooth and comfortable shave. Three passes to shave Nirvana.

The aftershave is a nice scent. I am not sure about its longevity as it is to early posted shave.

Hope you all have a great Saturday gentlemen.

 

fine start to the weekend gents.
