    Great shave last night at 3am lol. I really like B&M soaps and this scent is perfect for winter. I also like the Semouge OC Badger brush. May actually be my favorite brush in my collection. Also love Captain's Choice North. This is one of my favorite setups for a snowy winter day! Have a good weekend, Gents!

    I'll shave when I get feeling back in the various parts of my body.

    Great crowd for a great cause!

    Had an "okay" shave today. Lather was slick and cushiony. But my technique was a little. Was definitely overconfident. Was planning the blade through the lather far too quickly, so ended with a few weepers on my neck and chin. But it is what it is. Enjoy your day everyone

    Not sure how they came up with the name, but it's definitely a manly scent. ;)

    SHAVE OF the day
    20160206_161412.jpg


    Prep: Musgo Real classic
    Razor: Gillette ball end tech
    Blade: Gillette Thin (3rd shave)
    Brush: Fine Angel Hair Synthetc
    Soap: B&M Fireside
    Post: Reef Point Dragons Blood Balm


    2 pass shave today, first time with Fireside. It has a cherry note to my senses that is quite nice. Whipped up a nice lather as to be expected from B&M soaps. The shave went well with no nicks and ended up being a DFS. Hope everyone had a great shave!

    How do you like the Reef Point Balm? I got a very enthusiastic thumbs up on the dragon's blood scent from my lady friend, wanna get the splash or the balm.

    Reef Points balms and splashes are great, but I give the edge to the balm. Very moisturizing and only a small amount is needed. Highly recommend the Balm if you had to choose one.

    Last time I did something like that, it took me several hours to get the feeling back. Hope it went better for your!
