Shave a vu for day two

My weekly shave Sunday thru Saturday

Effortless, 2 pass, minor touch-up, BBS shave. Gotta say that my pal Don Marco hangs out with me all day! Long lasting scent.

Soap: RazoRock Don Marco
Brush: Semogue 620 boar
Razor: Fatip Grande
Blade: Gillette 7 O'Clock (1 - 7)
Aftershave: RazoRock Don Marco

GEMonday, March23-2020, A few of us decided to use our GEM G-bars today and mine was in storage for sometime(out of site out of mind). On a three pass shave this little razor works well but on a 2 pass is pushing CCS, DFS shave for me. So today was a 3 pass shave and the results were in my sweet spot.

Razor: Gem G bar - MFG 1953-58
Blade : Gem Personna SS PTFE (7)
Soap: Razorock "The Dead Sea"
Brush: Yaqi timberwolf 24 mm - great brush to use!
Pre-shave : brush wash my entire face with CeraVe hand bar soap + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera Gel on beard area.
Prep: cold water rinse after each pass of 3.
Post shave : Razorock " The Dead Sea" aftershave with with witch Hazel + Nivea balm.
Results : CCS,DFS,BBS + minimal irritation + 1 blemish weeper reopened = OK shave in my books!



Have some great shaves!

Happy Monday and sincerely wherever you are I hope you and yours are safe. The Timeless Bronze OC.78 is a very pretty razor but it is a killer of stubble. Since I had a few days growth I grabbed it today. What a flamethrower of a razor. Loaded up with a Personna Lab Blue.

Another shave and another CBL soap...hang on tight, I got lots! Today we went with Outlaw! A perfect match to Stetson! Oh yeah! Which of course I happen to have a bottle of.

Lovely two pass shave. No need for more than that with this little beasty of a razor. Smooth as silk. Stetson AS and a spritz of Bvlgari Man. Outlaw indeed, best smelling one North of the Pecos....waaaaaaaay North!

Since everyone is focusing on China and what just came out, I decided to do a Chinese Razor shave. I had a very smooth, 2 pass shave, that left me near BBS. No touch-ups. Very nice shave, and good steel, from China.

Razor- Chinese "ZY Pro Extra Sharp 430+"
Brush- C-MON A-4. Original Boar Knot.
Soap- AOS "OUD" cream.
Aftershave- Hill Country Arctic Blue

A great first shave with the Taiga. Set it on 4 with the fresh Feather and smooth effortless passes (3). The razor has good heft but, is very nicely balanced though I feel as the weight is biased slightly towards the head. Great grip on the handle and smooth movement from the dial adjuster. Just a killer adjustable that surpassed my expectations on its first go. Looking forward to getting a full weeks worth of shaves in especially with the OC plate. A good evening and shaves to all...​

awesome shave and pic Gus..
