A little break from the sun and heat to post for Wednesday: L'Oreal Men Expert Facial Wash Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster Super Speed with Astra day 3 Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill SS Lucky Tiger AS Cream Stirling Lemon Chill WH Pe Re Ja Lemon Cologne I haven't yet started any of my new Glacials because I'm still using the ones from last year and the year before. This Lemon Chill soap has a freeze to beat the band, with enough lather for three guys to shave. It smells so nice and you just can't beat its skincare. The Lucky Tiger balm is surprisingly enough very cold in addition to its soothing and moisturizing effect. That Lemon Chill witch hazel is the living end, and the Pe Re Ja cologne has a delicious, classy, traditional lemony scent which I love. My wife wishes that I would get rid of it and wear the Armani Black Code which her cousin bought me as a birthday gift, but the fact is I HATE that stuff. There's a very interesting story to the Pe Re Ja cologne which a Turkish gentleman told me!
Razor: Gillette Aristocrat (1947) Blade: Wilkinson (3) Brush: Amigos Dos Simpson Chubby 2 Synthetic LE Jade Soap: Nuavia Rossa Aftershave: Folsom Shady Past Bowl: The Distinctive Goat Sinker Cypress Wood Heading out to visit one of my sons for a few day. Here is what I'm taking with me. Razor: Gillette Super Speed (1947) Blade: Wilkinson (4) Brush: Omega 10066 Boar Soap: Nuavia Blu Aftershave: Myrsol Blue Bowl: The Distinctive Maple & Cherry I enjoyed using the Nuavia over the last ten days. I found the scent much better than the Verde. The lather was very similar. I am looking forward to using the Blu as I've heard so much high praise about it.
I live in WPB. We own hot and humid. Make sure and put on plenty of sunscreen and reapply every couple of hours. If you don't, I guarantee you will go back home looking like a lobster. We are closer to the sun then wherever you live, and most folks don't realize that until it's too late.
This lather was epic! Would have been a perfect shave but I think this blade was a dud, was very rough. I owe it to the soap for not showing the shave to be awful.
1914? Or is my memory really off? Great razor, though, my #1 S.E. Shaves about like the Damaskeene for me.
Gillette Slim (L2) Razor Treet Silver Carbon Blade Pioneer Boar Brush (restored) Love My Skin Tobacco & Bay Leaf Soap Dickinson's Witch Hazel Tabac After Shave First shave with the Treet Silver blade and it worked out very well. I had some slight irritation, but it could've been my fault as I rushed the shave a bit. Other than that, two passes with some touch up for a smooth BBS shave.
