SHAVE OF THE DAY




Prep: Musgo Real orange amber
Razor: Gillette Single Ring OC
Blade: Gillette Black (4th shave)
Brush: Maggard 24mm synthetic
Soap: Mystic Water- Egyptian Dragon sample/ LPL Cedar Patchouli
Post: Myrsol blue/ SC Resolution Balm



Very eventful 3 pass shave today. Started off with the MW sample, had enough for 2 passes but could still feel stubble, so busted out the LPL. LPL is a soap I have a hard time getting good slickness sometimes. The shave ended up pretty smooth, but did get a bit of irritation on the last pass. Finished off with Myrsol Blue and Resolution Balm for a great post shave. Hope everyone found the results they were looking for.

Thank you, Kindly! Can't wait to try it tomorrow!!!

 

Itcoccurs to me that he could have an "all bull dog" shave if he starting using some of the bulldog skincare libe.

 

It occurs to me that I didn't know such skin care products existed! And now I do! Hmmm...

 

Well let me introduce you. I found Bulldog skincare products with searches for best mens facewash and best moisturizer. The experts weren't lying. Bulldog is excellent.

In addition, they make an entire line of men's skincare and are highly regarded. Their products are #1 in the U.K.
I recommend ebaying or getting them on amazin, but there are American retailets that have them. I have heard some targets carry their products as well. my SOTD from earlier today

Marvelous shave this morning with the PAL Injecto-Matic. First time using Valobra shave soap and I'm impressed guys. Very easy, thick, protective lather, the scent isn't great but not bad either. Three passes for a dolphin smooth finish. Have a great day folks.

 

Excellent setup!

De Vergulde hand
PAL Adjuster
Schick S/S single [ 2- Japan ]
Tuff Green A/S lotion

Did a back to back with the PAL , checking out the blade. Dialled up the adjuster by 1 from my normal mid point setting. One of the noticeable points about shaving with the PAL is not only is it smooth , but also efficient so that the Shave seems quicker . I did in fact dispense with my usual Alum Rub & Rinse off. Other PAL users , get yourself a pack of these blades for those special occasion shaves.

 

SOTD August 4, 2016



Blade: Chinese Schick
Razor: PAL Injectomatic (on pass-around from @twhite)
Brush: Artisan badger
Lather: Soap Commander Fortitude
Post: Witch hazel splash, Speick, Nivea sensitive balm
WTG, touch-up

Nice, smooth shave with the Injectomatic. This was my first use with this razor and it didn't disappoint. I used a light touch and tried to swipe away the lather. Speaking of lather, the Soap Commander was excellent again. Great stuff.

Have a great day!
