First time use of Lea, Gillette No 66 Aristocrat, Kai (3), Pura Setola, Latigo etc
DFS and >70% BBS, very pleased with the Lea

 

81! amazing. Saw your video on the stropper. Thought: does the blade get any narrower after all that use and stropping? Has anyone with a micrometer tried measuring this?

Thank you, we are spoilt for choice, just plain spoilt!

Baie nice. Ja-nee, ok, goed, ek het al lank genoeg gewonder oor Jaco se seep, as 'n ou van daai goed wil hê, waar kry ons dit?

Remembrance Sunday morning shave. (UK)

In honour to the fallen heroes of all wars past & present'....'All politicians around the world should make it their duty to visit war memorials to be reminded what happens when politics fails'.

A wonderful lather was created in a short space of time from the Boots shave stick leaving a superb post shave feel.

Finishing to the shave off with a few small dollops of Boots Freshwood ASB.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy your Sunday ladies & gentlemen.

Lather Catcher Sunday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Vintage Life Licorice Shave Soap
Jayaruh #188
Superior Lather Catcher
Personna Gem Stainless PTFE
Cold Water Rinse
Derby City Chop Shop Winter Reserve AS

The Vintage Life Licorice Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #188 synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Superior Lather Catcher and the Personna Gem Stainless PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Derby City Chop Shop Winter Reserve After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Hi Friends,

Here my Shave of the Day (10.11.2024)


Razor: Pearl Flexi // Blade: Gillette Bleue Extra (3) // Soap: SV Felce Aromatica // Brush: Nightdiver´s Synthetic // Aftershave: Pitralon Classic

A truly wonderful shave was had.

The Razor in combination with this blade is pure magic. You can nearly hear every single whisker being sliced off. That with a gentleness and smoothness which is off the charts.

The soap performed fantastic as ever. This scent is SO wonderful.

To close out the shave after two joyful passes i used the Pitralon Classic with it´s woodsy Cedar notes. Matches great with the Fougere notes of from the soap.

10 out of 10

Have a great time, enjoy your shaves and stay safe and healthy.

Greetings
Thorsten

Sunday morning:

L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/Bic day 11
Mil’n’iy (Soapy) SC (from Russia)
Svoboda ASB
Black Garter Cologne

This Mil’n’iy cream has been sitting here in my house for many years and I think the last time I used it was back in 2009. It’s made by Svoboda Cosmetics in Moscow, and it has a nice clean soapy scent, it lathers great - lots of slickness and very cushiony, not to mention how comfortable the postshave feeling is. The Svoboda balm has the same scent and it’s very soothing, it gives a pleasant menthol sensation along with a lot of moisturizing. Finally the Black Garter cologne smells VERY old school and barbershoppy - it’s really nice. I enjoyed a terrific three pass BBS shave - we’re going to visit my in-laws today!

Have a good Sunday my dear friends!
