    Razor: Tuckmarr 5/8” Maccassar scales
    Brush: Sawdust Creation Studio Working Man Blues
    Lather: Catie’s Bubbles Vintage
    Aftershave: Catie’s Bubbles Vintage
    Additional Care:
    Omega Alum
    Dickenson’s Original Witch Hazel
    Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm

    Outstanding shave with the Caties’ Bubbles software. Always a great lather and scent. Three smooth passes that gave a very close shave without any errors.

    I think someone needs to tell Mother Nature it is not mid Fall. Chilly temperatures to the pint that my heat had to be put on as the house was 60 degrees. Joe, @Trigger, is freezing his petunias off. :Animatedfrozensmily:

    Outstanding shave. I find that the entire shave process extremely rewarding especially as you learn new things, ie straight razor shaves. The process is my time to just relax, entire pampering myself and relish in the fact that no one is around to bother me. I have developed quite a routine and well as a collection of soaps, aftershaves, brushes and razors. Beware of the rabbit hole.

    Congrats on the Edmund Fitzgerald of B & L soap. Yes, I find I can get anywhere between 30-40 shaves with a Stirling sample. That fact alone will cause me to purchase only samples from Stirling in the future as I have an abundance of soaps from many artisans. Perhaps close to 20 years worth.

    Awesome shave Joe. Yes, I am not happy with this chilly May. Hopefully, it will be warm next month.

    Fantastic Fatboy Friday shave Joe. You are liking the Sea Spice Lime despite the cold

    Thanks Joe

    Great shave and setup

    60F chilly indeed. We were around that last night indoors. Gas Heater for a bit before bedtime. Winter pyjamas and socks were needed to get us through the night.
    Crisp and fine day today.

    Thanks Joe. Don't think I have quite 20 years worth, but you are right, enough is enough, although temptation to try something different does sometimes come calling.
