    This Gin & Tonic OTR soap blew me away when I used it for the first time last week. I knew I'd love it but I never thought I'd love it this much. The scent is so refreshing, the lather is perfection, and it's pretty damn cold - easily as cold as the regular MITA. Its skincare is fantastic as well, just like all Stirling products. It's hard to be the Lucky Tiger a/s cream because it's so good and the Glacial Wintergreen witch hazel is a great way to really boost the freeze! ;) :D

    Prep - shower
    Pre - Badger Balm pre-shave oil
    Brush - Maggard 24mm purple handle synthetic
    Razor - Boss Razors All Metal DE
    Blade - Astra SP (2)
    Soap - C.O. Bigelow
    Post - Alum, Thayer's Rose WH, AV 5-in-1 balm
    AS - Proraso Green Splash
    Frag - none

    The Boss Razors DE is a new acquisition. I really like the handle, but the head isn't as nice as some of the other razors that I have used. The C.O. Bigelow was a really nice way to cool down this morning.

    jimjo1031 never bloomed myself

    Auto-Strop VC1 Razor
    Feather FHS-10 Stainless Blade
    Hardright Badger Brush (restored)
    Proraso Green Soap
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Barbasol Brisk After Shave


    Went with the Feather Stainless blade that I received from @wchnu and comparing it to the Feather carbon blade I used before. To me it felt almost the same, but smoother and sharper. It took care of my whiskers a bit better and had a fine two pass with touch up BBS shave.

    I refreshed a backlog of razors a couple of nights ago. This John Clarke has been one of my favorites but the last shave wasn't up to snuff. I took it back to the 3 micron lapping film, then 1 micron, and then a little time on the Arkie. It's back in business. :)

    First time with the Mike's Hungarian Lavender. I'm liking these soaps from Mike's. :happy088:

    Tuesday's Shave
    zcws.gif

    Nivea Men Face Wash
    Soap Commander Renewal Shaving Soap
    Jayaruh #2
    Gillette Double Ring
    Gillette Silver Blue
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayer's Lemon WH
    Pinaud Vegetal

    The Soap Commander Renewal Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #2 badger brush. I did the two passes with the Gillette Double Ring razor and Gillette Silver Blue blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Pinaud Vegetal AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Good picture with a beautiful brush Guy. Not a bad looking bowl also. I'm really like both my TDG bowls.
