Although I had a great shave with this new Midnight Lime soap from RVT I was crying like a baby. We're going to see my Dad and it looks like he's not going to be around for much longer. He has a bad infection which is not really responding to antibiotics. We don't for sure but it doesn't look good.
Tabac Tuesday's Shave Proraso Pre Shave Tabac Jayaruh #277 Schick Repeating Razor Schick Proline B20 CWR Thayer's Lemon WH Lucky Tiger I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Tabac Shave Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #277 silvertip badger brush. I did two passes with the Schick Repeating Razor using a Schick Proline B20 blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Lucky Tiger AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Today's shave Hot water wash with a washcloth Rubberset 400/ whipped dog high mountain silvertip Proraso Blue (bombed) BW Middlebrooks 5/8 full hollow round end Iced Nivia aftershave balm Today's shave with a thank you to @rmcintyre84 . The 400 made excellent lather from the bombed proraso. Three passes with the Middlebrooks (a gift from @rmcintyre84 ). The newly honed (1000,4000,8000,apache strata) made a good shave. The skiny'ish 5/8 was very maneuverable. I finished with iced Nivia balm. Smooth and comfy. Hope y'all did as well, or better.

I was wrong. The last time I tried Roam it was from the first run years ago. I'm embarrassed to admit that I traded it after only using it once. Since then, I've wondered if I was too hasty, and today I found out I did dismiss this scent too soon. When the tub came, the first whiff seemed harsh, almost acrid. I put it away to warm up from the cold and when I opened it this morning, the scent was different - leather, earth, and smoke, no acridity this time. I built the lather on my face and really warmed up to it - it didn't seem harsh at all, just manly, outdoorsy and not overpowering. I paired it with Chatillon Lux Bon Vivant, and it proved to be a good one. I won't be so hasty now. #barristerandmann #chatillonlux #smokeandleather #dontbehasty Rating: 5 / 5 Razor: Rockwell 6s R6 Blade: Personna Platinum Brush: Brothers Bristles Silver Surfer Lather: B-M Roam Aftershave: Chatillon Lux Bon Vivant Toner Additional Care: Proraso White https://shavingbuddy2.herokuapp.com/shave/5ac383e852115f00048d5291
