SHAVE OF THE DAY


PREP: MUSGO REAL CLASSIC PRE SHAVE SOAP

RAZOR: GILLETTE TECH/PROBAK

BLADE: GILLETTE 7OCLOCK YELLOW

BRUSH: FINE ANGEL HAIR SYNTHETIC

SOAP: GODREJ SHAVING ROUND

POST: REEF POINT SUBMARINER A/S, NOXZEMA


I found the key on the bottom of the puck of Godrej to be pretty cool. It made me think what is the key to getting a great shave? Experimentation. So I decided to take a shower after the shave, instead of before, so I washed my face with Noxzema after the shave and it worked out pretty well. Better than it did as a pre shave for me. Finished off with Reef Point after the shower and it feels great. Hope everyone has a great shave and a great day!

Get better soon, Kerry.

Have you completed your collection? I'd hate to be bidding against someone obsessed

I never knew there was an Old Spice Leather.

Great! Another Old Spice junkie in the making! I've never had the Leather, what's it like?

I don't know yet...

Neither did I, but a bottle is on the way.

I'll report my findings when it arrives. Stay tuned...

Had a really good shave this morning with my iKon B1 razor.

Gear:
iKon B1
Rapira
Vie Long 75th Anniversary synthetic
i Coloniali Mango
Soap Commander Endurance ASB

​

Razor: Gillette Aristocrat 1947 (Birth Razor)
Blade: Voskhod Teflon Coated (2)
Brush: WDC-4 Silver Tip Butterscotch Handle (VIG) 24/67
Bowl: Knock Out Shave
Soap: Jack's Soap
A/S: Pinaud Musk

Same procedure today, added a little menthol crystals to this soap, and it worked out very well. I am very surprised at the Voskhod blade. It provides a very close shave with very little resistance. Glides very smoothly in in the Aristocrat. Pretty well kept the same angle of attack tonight as I'm still learned this new blade. 3 passes as always.

I'd like to hear your review also.

What is TSD menthol additive?

I like your avatar. True also.

It's a good one.

Thursday's action:

Neutrogena Men Facial Wash
Large Horsehair Barbershop
Super Speed/Derby day 4
Gillette Menthol SC
Gold Bond Moisturizer
Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS

It's not 100% official, but this is what I plan to use for my shave. By 10:00 PM I'll update this post!

No, it's official. My mind's made up!

Great stuff. Just put a couple drops on the soap, lather, and voila - mentholated! Look for M-bomb on in the TSD Shop.

Nice pic and like that '47

Thursday's


Dove Men Face Wash
Col. Conk Lime Shave Soap
Jayaruh #18 Silver Tip
Gillette NEW SC/Micromatic Bullet-tip * 1947 BYR
Personna SS/GEM Stainless
CWR, Asma Alum Block
Thayers Lemon WH
Pinaud Vegetal

The Col. Conk Lime Shave Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #18 Silver Tip brush. First pass with my Micromatic Bullet-tip razor and a GEM Stainless Single Edge blade followed by second pass with the Gillette SC NEW 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 Lilac Vegetal after shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
