I love the Solo Menthol cream, even though the cooling effect is not strong. The scent is beautiful, the lather is so rich and creamy, and it's very moisturizing. The Barbon aftershave is a wonderful face-freezer.

Monday, June 28, 2010

Razor: Merkur Long-Handled Progress
Blade: Super Iridium
Brush: Simfix Grosvenor LE
Soap: Tabac
A/S: Generic Witch Hazel, Taylor No. 74 Victorian Lime

An excellent shave--maybe BBS, but it's too soon after the shave to tell for sure. Anyway, it felt great and the Victorian Lime A/S was a nice choice for this summer morning.

 

The list for this weeks shave is as follows:

• Hot Shower
• Gillette Super Speed (1976)
• Red Personna Blade
• T&H 1805 Cream
• Rooney 3/1 Super
• Nivea Sensitive ASB

​

Had the SS sitting in the medicine cabinet for quite some time now, having never tried it... was cleaning up, found it and opted to try it out for this week.

A light razor and produced a really good shave... way better than what I was expecting out of a bar type razor. My preference is for open comb's, but again, really good shave!
