Brush: Kriss Kross with original knot

Post: Cold water rinse, ice water splash, Cool Mist, Sean John Unforgivable, hand strop blade

Didn't need the "+" pass (touch-up) today. Darn near BBS.

 

Thursday:

Omega Wooden Handle
Super Speed/Rapira day 4
Karo Fresh SC
Arko Aqua AS Gel
Obsession For Men EDT

The Karo Fresh cream from Bulgaria is one of the few creams from there which I really don't like. Although the lather is very rich and easy to create, the scent to me anyway, is lousy and the skincare is almost non-existant. There's a very faint trace of menthol in it, but it can be barely felt. On the other hand, the Arko Aqua gel is very cooling and soothing.

 

Thursday 19 April

Proraso Preshave cream
Mama Bear's Awakenings Stick
EJ89 w/ Gillette 7O'Clock Super Platinum (black)
Omega Boar travel brush, face lather
Alcolado Glacial splash, w/ Anherb Conditioner

A very three pass shave, DFS. Again very chilly. The EJ89 is working out very well for a travel razor, nice heft.
Another hotel bathroom picture for you all. Hope you have a nice day, looks like I'm stuck here for awhile.

 

What does the arko aqua smell like? I have the arko cool and I cant figure it out, but I like how it leaves my face.

 

It has a nice citrusy scent. It also has a great cooling effect, with excellent soothing for sensitive skin.

 

Thursday:

Soak Brush/Savile Row 3824
Hot Shower
Proraso PrePost Cream
Palmolive Menthol Shave Cream (Italy)
Dirty Bird Scuttle Original
Weber Classic DLP/Voskhod (2)
Cold Water Rinse
Monster Block Alum (clean brush,razor,scuttle,police area)
Cold Water Rinse
Vitos After Shaving Splash

Well I'm a believer now,the Palmolive shave cream is great.It has nice slick lather smells good,it could have a lil more menthol but hey that's what M-Bomb is for.I got a great face and head shave and that is what really counts.

 

Thursday.

Hot Shower + Noxema Original Deep Cleansing Cream
Proraso Anti-irritation Pre-Shave Cream (each pass)
Proraso Soap, Green, Face Lathered
Best Badger Brush
'68 SuperSpeed Flare Tip w/ Voskhod

3 pass DFS. It's been difficult but I'm getting used to shaving every couple of days now.

Enjoy the rest of your week!

 

Dean, you're holding out on me, Bond makes an ASB and Aftershave?!

EJ DE86​

Wilkinson Sword​

VDH​

Omega​

Grey Flannel​

Yeah not sure if I could send any to you as its got alcohol, If customs think they can stop a parcel being sent for any reason they will stop it
The cost of the aftershave and ASB and tube of shave cream was about £4.00 all in (the postage would be 3 time that and it would possibly get stopped)
