awesome shave sir..

 

My birthday shave:

L’Oreal Men Expert Facial Wash
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Wilkinson TTO/new Astra Green
Tcheon Fung Sing Sottozero SS
Prep ASB
Reef Point Fougere Santal AS Splash
Givenchy Gentleman EdT

I can’t believe it - another year has passed and I’m officially a golden ager. This shave was such a pleasure thanks to this wonderful razor loaded with my favorite brand of blades. The word sottozero means “below zero” in Italian but this Sottozero soap’s menthol effect is actually very mild - in fact it’s not even as strong as Proraso Green, but I can easily forgive that because it smells very nice, it gives great lather, and it leaves a comfortable postshave feeling. The Prep delivered its beautiful cooling, soothing care, and the Fougere Santal aftershave from Reef Point that my lovely wife bought me as a gift two years ago went on icy cold with its own awesome scent. We’re going to a golf and country club resort which some friends of ours invited us to so we can celebrate my birthday!

 

Thank you, sir.

 

Well now, have yourself a wonderful birthday celebration Jeff...you "old timer" you!

I must confess. This morning's struggle er, I mean "shave" was very disappointing. While changing out blades for my weekly shave, I came upon a single Shark blade that must have been in a sample pack from years ago. So I loaded it in a RazoRock Old Type which I normally use for cleaning up the back of my neck as it's a very mild razor and it minimizes my chances of drawing blood. Figured I'd give that combo a try this AM. Not sure if it was the blade, the razor or the combination but it just didn't cut it. Two passes then MAJOR touch-ups and I still feel substantial stubble in areas. I'll continue to use it as before but it ain't gettin' near my mug again.

Cream: LaToja
Brush: Omega S10065
Bowl: $Tree salsa
Razor: RazoRock Old Type OC
Blade: Shark (1 and done)
Aftershave: Pinaud VIBR

 

Happy birthday, Jeff!!!

Thank you, Gary!

 

I used to get a "clunker" every once in a while. They're so cheap, that I never had a slightest regret binning it.

 

Have fun today!

 

Thanks

 

Thanks...

 

I sure will!

 

Happy Birthday Jeff. I hope you have a wonderful day.

 

I think I may have fallen in love with this razor! Tom, you found a winner for sure!

 

Are you chasing me?
It will take a lot of years to catch me!
Best wishes!
