    A very relaxed Sunday Morning shave, my skin's feeling smooth and hydrated.
    First time with Wickham's PSB, and I like it a lot, absorbs quickly, smells great and feels good.
    Have a great Sunday.
  4. Happy Birthday Karl. :poze:

    SE Sunday's Shave
    zcws.gif

    Proraso Pre Shave
    Sterling Lime Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #277
    Gem 1907 Lather Catcher
    Original Gem Cutlery SE
    CWR
    Thayer's Lemon WH
    Lucky Tiger

    I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Sterling Lime Shave Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #277 silvertip badger brush. I did two passes with the Gem 1907 Lather Catcher Razor using an Original Gem Cutlery SE 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...

    Good morning friends. A truly fine three pass shave today with the Gillette Aristocrat. This razor is one smooth shaver. The Italian Barber Milionario soap is just wonderful. Thick, slick, beautifully scented lather, highly recommended. I am smooth and refreshed, enjoy your day friends. ☺️

    Superb Sunday
    Such a smooth, close and comfortable shave! The lather was optimal and smelled great. WSP tobacco is a pretty good pairing, and one of my favorites. I added the balm because I'll be working outside before church this morning and it will be below freezing.

  9. It was my Genco Red Cross razor to the rescue this morning. I had a pleasant two pass shave.

  10. Sunday I overslept and I'm gonna be late Shave, April 8, 2018
    Hot wash with Neutrogena Men Invigorating FW
    Barbasol
    Gillette Fusion Profile
    3 passes
    Cold rinse, witch hazel, Grey Flannel AS

    Great shave. I wish I could get this nice a shave with a DE, but I can't. Kind of ticks me off.
  11. Tim, just in case you missed it, I posted in the "hot deals" forum the other day that Clubman Online are running a 15% off sale through 4/15/18. I know, I'm just another in a long line of enablers. ;)

    BTW, I'm ordering the 2 other splashes that I don't have......
  12. A most enjoyable BBS shave in spite of the Astra pretty well being at the end of the road. The Chapmunk soap from RVT has such a lovely spearmint scent - it's named for the "Chappies" chewing gum in South Africa. The soap has such fantastic lather and its skincare is so soothing from the chamomile in it. There's a bit of a cooling effect as well. The Bull Dog moisturizer felt so comfortable and soothing. I'm a happy camper!

    To all a great Sunday and to all members of the Greek Orthodox faith "Kali anastasi - Kalo Pascha."

  14. You probably already know this, so I apologize if this is old news, but I have kept track of your posts, and the only thing that keeps popping into my mind is that, when using a DE, you are applying similar pressure as you do with your carts. Remember, it's all about removing the lather, not removing the hair. Good luck.
