The big Filarmonica left me clean shaven and smooth, smooth, smooth. Nothing like a big blade to take on days of stubble. Oh, and that Frosted Lavender After Shave? Wow, just wow, quite the nice, long, slow freezer burn!

(Face & Head Shave)

The Haslinger Schafmilch shaving soap is a great performing nice mild non descriptive fragranced shaving soap which my mature skin loves and creates an acceptable lather in a short space of time.

Another close comfortable combined face & head shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Creightons Sensitive PSB.

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

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

 

Beautiful razor, Karl.

The Arko Stick Soap lathered well with the Oscar11 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the H. Böker 5/8 straight gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I went through a puck of Haslinger's Ringelblumen (marigold) soap. I really enjoyed it.

The two pucks of Haslinger's I have are superb, I won't hesitate to restock once I've used them up.

 

Saturday morning’s Grand Freeze:

L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/new Astra Green
Stirling Glacial Frozen Tuxedo SS
Gold Bond Moisturizer
Stirling Glacial Frozen Tuxedo AS Splash

There’s nothing like a brand new blade for ease of shaving, especially if it’s an Astra Green because these blades perform so well for me. Not only are they very sharp they’re also really smooth. The Glacial Frozen Tuxedo soap and aftershave have the same magnificent scent as the Sharp Dressed Man or the Creed Green Irish Tweed but they’re loaded to the hilt with frigid menthol. Three glorious passes gave me a dynamite BBS shave that was lots of fun!

See y’all tomorrow - same time, same station!

Nice set up Chris, the BS Maca Root is a firm favourite of mine. I've yet to try the Kai blades, purely because I have a boat load variety that will last me two life times. Enjoy your weekend.
