Sunday 28th January Olive Oil Soap and RSC Facial Scrub Vitos Preshave Cream Palmolive Shaving Cream with Sweet Orange. Patchouli and Cedarwood EOs Giles Shaving Co Bowl Semogue 1250 Boar Brush Gillette Red Tip TTO B 1 with a Treet Durasharp Carbon Steel Blade Alum Block and Rinse Groomed ASB Pashana AS The second of my 3 recent rediscoveries ...a little rougher and it did require a little readjustment to return it to full working order. Definitely more aggressive than the original TTO....but still tame when compared to many of the razors currently found. Three passes gave a lovely BBS shave Enjoy the remainder of the weekend!
WCS Multi Razor & Bolzano Superinox #1 Maggard Granite Wholly Kaw Chypre Rose Concerto Humphreys Alcoholado Maravilla Nivea 2in1 lotion Wholly Kaw Chypre Rose Concerto A/S splash Under $20 razor, $$$ Million dollar shave from a Zamak head and SS handle. Efficient, not overly aggressive and smooth. Think Rockwell 6s on a #4 or #5 plate with a tad more blade feel, really nice. And what hasn’t been said about the Wholly Kaw CRC? A wonderfully scented soap with a lather that takes second place to no one in terms of performance and post shave results. Definitely Tier 1 class in my book. Have a great day and shaves Gents...

Sun. 1/28/18 A fine three pass shave this morning with the Gillette Sensor 5. I am smooth and refreshed. Enjoy your day friends. ☺️
Thanks very much Guy. The Sabre with the L2 base plate is a great razor. Well balanced and easy to use. Sent from my STV100-3 using Tapatalk
A brilliant shave despite the Astra blade being just about finished. The Sharp Dressed Man soap delivered on the great lather with its lovely, classy scent and soothing post-shave feeling. I couldn't resist using the Musgo Real classic aftershave - it smells so nice but it doesn't disrupt the scent of an eau de toilette. It's also very comfy on the skin. Have a nice Sunday!

28 January 2018 Can it get any better?
