Nice and frosty shave,dome and face BBS!!!!

Stay frosty,my friends!

 

It reminded me I haven't used my mine in a very long time. I think Jabonman Coco will be in my line up tomorrow.

 

I spent most of my day polishing this copper set that SWMBO won in an online auction. I'm lucky that I still had enough feeling in my hands for a great shave.

The Merkur 39C destroyed the 3 days of growth with ease. The stage was set by B&M Lavanille with some added slickness from the Lavender/Mint PSO (thanks Guy).

I hope you gents have a good one.​

 

Same here so planning on using Jabonman Mountain tomorrow.

 

Nice looking photo and nice copper set she has there. But my question to you is why stop with just the copper. You should have pulled out your razors and given them a shine over.

 

Tried my French OC Gardette this morning for the first time.
I ended up with a close, clean shave but the razor did feel a bit overly aggressive and the shave wasn't quite as comfortable as I would have liked for it to be.
Not bad - just not great (based on one shave of course..).

The vintage Colgate soap has, on the other hand, proved to be a stellar addition to my den.

​

 

LOL...that was last week my friend, and the "real" reason why I picked up some metal polish. I cleaned up my straight before I sent it off to get honed.




Once we settle into the new place, I'm going to commit to 30 days straight.

I would have lathered up the BEAR.....just saying....

 

Nice Dubl Duck. I was rubbing it in a little as I had to polish my copper Turkish coffee pot on Sunday so I went ahead and polished my three Aristocrats, Rocket HD 500 and my Cobra that I used today. Now 30 more razors to go........

 

That's what happens when you get started....lol

 

Sweet pictures and something I could relate too.

 

Nice pic today. Looks like the Gardette has some bite to it.

 

Friday's


Dove Men Face Wash
Van Der Hagen Deluxe Shave Soap
Jayaruh #1 Silver Tip
Gillette NEW LC/Micromatic Bullet-tip * 1947 BYR
Personna SS/GEM Stainless
CWR, Asma Alum Block
Thayers Lemon WH
Pinaud Vegetal

I am switching to my Gillette NEW LC for the next week. This NEW was a Milady, but I am using an OT ball end handle with it instead of the original handle. I love the way this razor shaves.

The Van Der Hagen Deluxe Shave Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #1 Silver Tip brush. First pass with the Gillette LC NEW followed by second pass with my Micromatic Bullet-tip razor and a GEM Stainless Single Edge 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 Lilac Vegetal after shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
