Awesome brush!

 

@wristwatchb That's a nice looking Rudy Vey Brush you have there. I just got my brush in from him and am eagerly awaiting the end of these 30 days so I can give it a try.

How is the scent of that salters wild rose?

 

You will love it. If not, I will talk to you in the classifieds section.

Nice shave this morning. Enjoyed the QED Vetiver, first time with QED. Have a good one.

 

It is a medium rose scent that is quite nice. Not too sickening sweet like some rose scents. For a large tub (5.8 ozs) for about $15.00 bucks, it's a very good buy. The tub will last a long long time!

 

That DeLuxe head looks great. Replated? Nice combo with the Sabi handle.

 

And the performance is excellent

 

Thanks, it is just cleaned up brass that requires a clean and polish every so often.

Brass can really clean up and polish up very well. I remember polishing my brass in the army, and it could almost be translucent.

 

Thank you, Herm!

 

Sunday's


Nivea Men's Face Wash
Col. Conk Lime Shave Soap
Wild Cherry PTS
My Dad's Schick E3
Schick Platinum Plus
CWR, Asma Alum Block
Thayers Lemon WH
Barbasol AS

The Col. Conk Lime Shave Soap face-lathered well with my Wild Cherry Pur Tech Synthetic Brush. Two passes with my Schick E3 and Schick Platinum Plus Injector blade gave me a close, comfortable shave with a couple of weepers on my chin. After a cold water rinse, alum block, and a final cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayers Rose Petal WH and then Barbasol after shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Wow! What an amazingly beautiful brush handle!

 

TY Celestino. I love all your acrylic brushes as you know and always look forward to seeing how you portray them.

Evening Shave for Tomorrow
Cozy, smooth shave tonight with another splendid Wostenholm. This little round-tipped Pipe razor took a very nice edge and feels oh-so-smooth on the face.
Got back into using 'The Fat' recently (Thanks, @BigMark !), and with a bit of practice, some really slick lather was produced. I had forgotten what a light, pleasant scent MWF has! Overall, a very enjoyable shave to start the week!

Have a blessed Sunday, everyone!
