Shave of the week

HD with a Shark (damn fine blade)
C&E Best
VDH Soap
Clubman ASL

I haven't used the VDH and Clubman in a while, good stuff. I could live off this combo.

 

Habibi, there is also an excellent cream from De Vergulde Hand, I think to use it tomorrow!

1919 valet auto strop
valet blade
c.o. bigelow s/c
aristocrat badger brush, white and green handle

dickinsons witch hazel
old spice fresh

halston catalyst

 

Oh come on, no cream is better than its soap counterpart so far as quality is concerned.

Scent is another story.

BTW, Farha and I just were out for a walk and passed by a new Hookah bar called Habibi's.

HAHA

 

Rooney 3/1 Super
T&H Rose SC
Genco 11/16
Witch Hazel
Ahava ASB
Have a great night!

 

Well, I use for 2 or more years this cream, as well as the soap. The same lather, the same scent, the same feeling to the skin after the shave. Achhhhhhh, I cannot find the tube--tomorrow, I will use maybe Gatsby!

Hookah bar? We have those bars here in Montreal, one in particular, I am always there in the summer--I sit on the terrace with friends, we drink, smoke Hookah, play backgammon, and talk politics!

I didn't use anything neglected today, but I still got a wonderful shave. The Super Speed is such an excellent razor.

 

Hot Shower

Good Wednesday morning all...

Fat Handle Tech and Feather blade
E.J. BBB
Mem sc
Thayers Original WH w/ aloe
Speick a/s
Musgo Real a/s balm
Peterman 1903 cologne

That feather/ Tech combo keeps on delivering. The Mem provides great cushioning and
leaves my face feeling great. I gave the Peterman cologne a consecutive use because I
think it compares favorably with Guelain's Vetiver.

 

Wow! Is It VDH Wednesday All Ready??

Yes it is! WooHoo

'57 Gillette SS razor - long neglected
Gillette Mejorada blade - little time neglected
VDH Deluxe SS - a regular Wed treat
VDH Boar Brush - another Wed regular
Pinaud Clubman Aftershave - not neglected and well liked

Close & comfortable, that's what we're looking for and got.

 

Razor: Boker King Cutter 5/8ths spike point
Brush: Omega Professional
S/C: Omega
A/S: Proraso Splash
E de C: Bigelow Barber

The only neglected thing here is the big Omega 48. I like it well enough, but don't use it often.
