Prep - Woods Of Windsor Cedar Woods soap / Pre-lather / 3 min steam Razor - Gillette Slim Adjustable Blade - Gillette Silver Blue Brush - Vie-Long 04312 Cachurro Horse Soap - Razor Master Uula After - Frozen towel / Alum & WH Mix Result - DS (Dolphin smooth) First time in over a year with this blade, they are so smooth but as sharp as I remember. First outing for this soap, smells gorgeous, although reminiscent of fudge. Gorgeous lather but where I think this soap really excels is post shave feel, it's Xpec good! Really enjoying using the same razor for a month, still deciding what next month will be though.
Inspired by my dear friend Ray I've selected a freezing-cold Stirling soap and a mighty fine face-freezer! Wednesday: Neutrogena Men Facial Wash Large Horsehair Barbershop Super Speed/Astra day 3 Stirling Frozen Tundra SS Gold Bond Moisturizer Fine Snake Bite AS Dolce & Gabbana EdT There you have it - somebody here is going to have an awesome, ice-cold shave and that somebody is little old ME!
Tuesdays shave I felt a bit tired so had a nice menthol shave to wake me up. Razor - Gillette Slim Blade - Wilkinson Sword Pre shave - Proraso green Brush - Fine Accoutrements Angel hair Lather - C. O Bigelow shaving cream Aftershave - Proraso green
Oh man you have no idea... Review of LPV coming soon! And if you love having your face feel like you just got smacked by a penguin pick up this Snakebite AS!
Kevin, I've been using the W. Neumann soap included in the A.S. sampler order, and it's a nice fragrance. As for the samplers themselves, look for a report by the week-en d. I have the Signature 1907, the 1911, and the Heartwood ready to go(for now).
Planned Shave For Wednesday Pre-Dial 4 Men Bodywash (in shower) Shave-Barbasol Original Razor-Gillette Sensor 2 Pivot + DisposeABLE(my "repeating razor") A.S.-Clubman Country Club
Jeff, with the excitement I'm having with these Wm.(Bill)Neumann samplers, I forgot about Fine.. Bad me. I'll be buying them for spring/summer though. I'm sure I'll buy one or more of the Neumanns soon. The only face-freezer, I think, would be their "Absolute Zero".
Gillette Red Tip Kai (2) B&M Night Music Rubberset 400 CF Sherlock splash Night music is amazing... So complex in scent that smells one way out of the tub and transforms slightly once lathered. Highly recommend. The lather is second to none, CRSW v.2 comes close. Fantastical.
Tobacco Tuesday Prep: Musgo Real Oakmoss Razor: Gillette ball end tech Blade: Bic (2nd shave) Brush: RazoRock plissoft Soap: RazoRock Tobacco #1 Post: Osage rub/ Myrsol Emulsion 2 pass shave today. The scent really comes to life once this soap is lathered, rather than just from the tub. I prefer the tallow RR soaps, but it made a nice lather, and turned out to be a pretty good shave today. Finished off with Emulsion which helps soothe and moisturize the skin. Hope everyone had a great shave!
My plan for Wednesday. PAL injectomatic with some TOBS and Myrsol. This razor is rather simple but man what a shave! Have a great day everyone!
