Menthol Monday's OC Shave Proraso Pre Shave Fine Snake Bite Jayaruh #229 Gillette Sheraton Gillette Silver Blue CWR Thayer's Lemon WH Pinaud Clubman I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Fine Snake Bite Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #229 synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Gillette Sheraton razor and Gillette Silver Blue blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Pinaud Clubman AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
RECENT SHAVES Prep: pre shave soap mix Razor: Wilkinson Sword Classic Blade: Gillette Rubie Brush: Razorock Plissoft Soap: WTF Christmas Time Post: B&M Latha Tagia Decided to break out the pine/basalm/fir type scents even though it is a bit early. Love the performance of WTF soaps and the scent of Christmas Time is nice and strong, one of my favorite pine scents in the den. Finished off with Tagia balm. Prep: Occams Crushed Lime Razor: Gillette Fat Handle Tech Blade: Gillette Black (1st shave) Brush: Razorock Plissoft Soap: Grooming Dept Basique Post: Proraso Woods and Spice balm, Lucky Tiger Epic shave yesyet day morning. Performance of Grooming Dept soaps is incredible, and the scent of Basique has got stronger then it was at first use. I can't tell if I prefer the vegan formula or the duck tallow, but both are supurb. Got a perfect BBS with no irritation. Finished off with Proraso Woods and Spice balm. Prep: pre shave soap mix Razor: Gillette Fat Handle Tech Blade: Gillette Black (2nd shave) Brush: Fine angel hair synthetic Soap: Victory Shaving Rosie Post: Local Gent Anubis balm Had a smooth shave this afternoon. Really like the rose sandalwood scent of this Rosie soap. Performance is quite nice, have noticed the soap lathers best when water is added slowly rather than all at once. Finished off with LG Anubis balm, face is feeling smooth and refreshed. Hope everyone is doing well and getting great shaves!
