    Lol nothing wrong with the original bottle, but i had this old cool ornate bottle and the juice in it smelled terrible so figured the old AV would look cool and go well with the crystal look.

    Razor - Edwin Jagger DE89l
    Blade [​IMG] (1)
    Soap - Fine Accoutrements Italian Citrus
    Brush - 30DC LE
    Post - Alum

    Let's stay basic with a classic "newbie" razor. The EJ DE89l has long been recommended as a great starter razor that is definitely a step above something like the Weishi. It's shinier, sturdier, just looks better. It's a mild razor that provides great shaves with the right angle which means - ride the cap. I went to the classic and basic Voskhod for the blade to make it a great pairing. I put the Fine Italian Citrus soap from @Keithmax in the soap bowl from @jtspartan that I won in a raffle and used the original 30DC LE brush from @jtspartan to find a very nice lather. First time for me using Fine and I was quite happy with the lather. The scent is very mild on this soap but the lather is slick and very protective. Nice shave and it's a nice pairing for the wooden bowl.

    I went three passes and found the baby. Very smooth and comfortable shave with no irritation from the alum. I like it! A fitting finish to a great meet-up weekend. Thank to everyone who came to town this weekend! It was a great time with great food and enough shenanigans to remind us all why we're here. It's all about shaving.......with friends. Have a great start to the work week.

    Bath Soap - Periwinkle Lane "Pure White" type
    [​IMG]
    Razor - Merkur Futur
    Blade - [​IMG]
    Razor Stand by RV Shaving
    Shave Brush - Omega Hi-Brush 20mm Synthetic (Model# 46745 – 0146745)
    Brush Stand by Desire Metal Works
    Shave Soap - West Coast Shaving "Pear-Brrr Shoppe"
    Lather Bowl - Durance de Provence White Ceramic
    Deodorant - Serenity Studio "Pear Musk"
    Aftershave - West Coast Shaving "Pear-Brrr Shoppe"
    Fragrance - Creed "Pure White Cologne"

    In my search for a better deodorant scent match I have found a new one that I think will stick for a while unless/until I find a true match. It's much more neutral and doesn't interfere with or detract from the cologne.

    A cracking Micromatic Monday shave. Every time I use the Proraso Red splash, I think, I must do this more often.
    Happy Shaving one and all.

    Cold Water Rinse
    Proraso Green
    Jayaruh #369 Synthetic
    Valet AutoStrop VB1
    Valet AutoStrop (11)
    CWR
    Osage Rub

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Proraso Green Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #369 Synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Valet AutoStrop VB1 razor with a Valet AutoStrop blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
