SOS: OCtober 2018

Tuesday's fun:

Neutrogena Men Facial Wash
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/Astra Green day 3
Erasmic SS
Prep ASB
Booster Mosswood AS Splash

What a dynamite shave this was - it's been too long since I've used the Erasmic soap. I gave away two new bowls of it, but I'm keeping this one for myself. The scent is so old-school and nice, it's such a pleasure to lather, and it feels so good on my skin. The Prep and the Mosswood are a perfect barbershop type finish to a great shave like this one!

 

Pre: Warm water splash
Brush: Vie-Long 14846 Badger/Horse
Soap: TOBS Sandalwood
Razor: Gillette Single Ring 1918
Blade: Polsilver Łódź
Post: Warm then cold water rinse, TOBS Sandalwood ASL

A very nice shave!
Happy Shaving one and all.

 

Stahly (Barbaros handle)/Chinese Wilkinson (2). A luxurious shave. I usually don't like heavy handles which don't balance well with chosen head, but since the Stahly was designed to mate with a handle of ridiculous proportions it perhaps isn't surprising how well it does here. Simply doesn't get much better. 114g.

Fine "Marcel" razor
Gillette Spoiler blade

Fume SS w/a couple drops of M-Bomb

Nice shave indeed. I had tried the Marvel razor before with a different blade and was unimpressed. The Spoiler made a world of difference and I enjoyed the shave and got great results. Now go enjoy your day folks.
