SOS March 2020

Aannd...a first for me for tomorrow's shave:

prep-Nivea 4 Men Bodywash(Max. Hydration)
shave-Duke Cannon Supply Co.("Superior Grade Shaving Cream-"For A Man Of Higher Taste")*
brush-Crown King 26" Spindle Duro Tali
razor-Gillette Sensor Deuce Pivot +DisposeABLE
A.S.-Clubman Original (6 oz).

*this will be my introduction to face-lathering. I should add that the Duke Cannon comes in a tube. This particular DC is a barbershop scent, hence the Clubman following. Wish me luck, gentlemen!!!

 

+1000 on face lathering

 

That's how many times you've done it?

 

awesome shave and pic Jim..

 

awesome set ups shaves and pics gentlemen..

 

Thanks, Gary!

 

Congrats on meeting your wife! That Fatip looks like a beast! How's the shave?

 

Wowser, Ever get inspired by something, then try'in match your shave to it?
Today, I was prepping for my shower and happen to get anew bar of Irish Spring. I thought, that smells really strong. I was diggin' the scent. So after my shower, I used;
Hot water
Brothers Bristles/ ace black badger
Palmolive shave classic
Matador elegante open comb
Rapira (1)
Osage rub
Fine endeavor, I felt like one side of the blade was better than the other. But all went well. I guess ive been parfumin' it up lately. The bath bar and minty freshness struck a nice chord with me today. And the face afterfeel with palmolive is always very good.
Hope y'all did as well, or better.
Sorry no pic, social distancing and all, lol.
Seriously, all my items (except BB Brush) are pretty common.

 

Thank you, Gary!

 

Thank you!
The Fatip feels quite substantial despite having a hollow handle. Fit and finish is good.....and it shaves extremely well if treated with respect.

 

This lovely Lund is always challenging the Russian I used Sunday for the title of Best Shave in the den. Today was another too close to call wonderful result. Winner on looks, though.

Probably, also how much I approve the practice.

As good as it gets. The WCS Chypre shave cream is extremely under the radar but, it is no slouch in lather, glide, protection and just overall excellent performance. The scent is real darn good too pairing with the Sauvage very, very well. A great evening and wonderful shaves to all...​

 

Thanks Gary. I had to buy some Irish Spring bar soap since all the TP was gone at the store and I haven't used it in years. Fun to add it to the shave and it is only $0.50. I really like Irish Spring as a scent. It is one of those classics that you don't realize how much you really liked it and can easily be overlooked in a shave soap. Previously I just dismissed it in every seasonal release. Just fresh and clean. The Eco is a bit rough and not smooth, but I think it may be the blade. I never used Crowns before but they came with the razor. The shaves are not bad and they do leave me with a smooth face, but the blades just seem a bit rough. One of these days, I'll use the razor with another blade to see if it feels better.
