    Dove Men Face Wash
    Soap Commander Renewal
    Omega 11137
    Gillette Old Type
    Voskhod
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayers Lemon WH
    Pinaud Clubman

    The Soap Commander Renewal Shaving Cream face-lathered well with my Omega 11137 Boar brush. Two passes with my Gillette Old Type razor and a Voskhod blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, alum block, and a final cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayers Lemon WH and then Pinaud Clubman after shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Comments: The GD provided a decent shave as I used it for two passes before going to the Wolfman DC for my cleanup pass. I did end up with two small weepers and some slight irritation. The shave felt pretty good and what I would call a CCS at least. I like this soap! I had no issues with the lather, It gave me plenty of protection or slickness. Shave was pretty good today! I will say that I am not sure I like
    e feel of the GD razor enough though to hang onto to it or keep using it!

    Please feel free to leave comments on any items used as I enjoy reading them to see what others say about the gear I am using/trying out! Of course, YMMV!

    Thx.

    Great shave today. No buy July has got me going through my den using gear I have been overlooking.
    Why oh why I haven't used this razor and blade combination more often I do not know. But I'm glad I rediscovered it.

    [​IMG]

    Razor - R41 with Jagger handle
    Blade - Feather
    Lather- I Coloniali
    Preshave - Edwin Jagger hydrating pre shave lotion
    Aftershave - Old Spice & Nivea Sensitive Balm.

    One of the closest shaves I've had in a long time.

    Thursday morning's plans:

    Neutrogena Men Facial Wash :love055: :love055: :Animatedfrozensmily: :Animatedfrozensmily:
    Large Horsehair Barbershop
    Super Speed/Derby day 2
    Italian Palmolive Menthol SC :love055: :love055: :love055: :Animatedfrozensmily: :Animatedfrozensmily: :Animatedfrozensmily:
    Gold Bond Moisturizer :love055: :love055: :love055: :Animatedfrozensmily: :Animatedfrozensmily: :Animatedfrozensmily:
    Mennen Skin Bracer AS :love055: :love055: :love055: :Animatedfrozensmily: :Animatedfrozensmily: :Animatedfrozensmily:

    This will be another nice, chilly shave - the Palmolive Menthol cream from Italy is hard to beat because it smells so beautiful, lathers so well, and gives such a terrific freezing sensation along with a relaxed, comfortable post-shave feeling. I want this cream to be in my rotation at ALL times. I also hope to be able to the Gold Bond stuff as well, because I love it so much. The Skin Bracer is an aftershave which has everything I love about it - its scent, icy-cold skincare which also soothes and protects against irritation. Man, these Derby blades are awesome! ;) :D

    I really do too. I've been using pomades for the last couple of years but I got tired of the greasiness. It was nice to find something great for less than $5.

    I love that ATT! I think that'll be my next (and probably last) expensive razor purchase.
