    I went with my trusty Dovo Shavette for this afternoon's shave. Facelathered this soap so there isn't a lather pic.
    3 passes gave me another bloodless BBS result. Alum Block gave me one zing, otherwise it was silent. Witch hazel and the lovely matching aftershave finished this nice shave. Take care.

    (Face & Head Shave)

    A new shave set up to start the weekend...I've carried on using the Super-Max Classic Shaving Cream after the wonderful lather that it created with my previous shave...The addition of lanolin in this cream is a superb tonic for my mature skin.
    Another close comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report.

    The Merkur 37C/Treet Dura Sharp carbon blue pack yet again worked together in smooth efficient harmony.

    Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Nivea Men Replenishing PSB.

    My face & precious swede are feeling smooth and smelling divine.;)

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

    Nice shave this morning as part of Fine February. Could have been better, though, as I developed a painless cut just off the upper lip, left side, and two Knicks along the same area. It was upsetting to see these, as I am trying to go softer these days, mainly to attack the ingrown hairs on my cheeks and on N.W. Cactus Nation(neck). No other problems. It will be interesting to see how long I can go with the Fine Latigo soap before it's time to Edmund it. Still plenty of the A.S. left(Latigo). 2 passes. Great scent from the aftershave-course that is Fine's dupe of the Austrian classic from 1925-Knize 10. Pretty Outstanding.

    Blade: Shark Platinum

    Wonderful shave with the Ukrainian soap PIFd to me by Joe, @Trigger. The scent profile is as follows: “Luminous and sophisticated fragrance lays on the skin like an amber floral and woody breeze. A poetic alchemy, where the aerial notes of jasmine and the radiance of saffron carry mineral facets of ambergris and woody tones of a freshly cut cedar wood.”
    Fragrance Type: Floral, Oriental
    Top note: Jasmine, Saffron
    Heart note: Woody amber
    Base note: White cedar, Spruce resin

    The interesting fact about this soap is that it is made with bear fat. The benefits of bear fat is as follows:
    “Bear fat has unique cosmetic properties:
    - has a powerful antiseptic and anti-inflammatory effect;
    - promotes rapid healing after cuts;
    - instantly softens the skin

    Superb three passes without an irritation. Hope you all have a great day gentlemen.

    Just for fun: LGR!
