    Brush: DSCosmetic synthetic 26mm
    Soap: Haslinger Schafmilch
    Razor: Mühle R41
    Blade: Personna Chrome Platinum
    Post: Witch hazel & Tabac balm

    The soap was as dry as it can be. Wasn't sure to get much out of it, but 3-4 minutes blooming and the lather was gorgeous and plenty.

  2. I had one for about a year. It was fabulous initially but it’s lifespan was surprisingly short.
    I thought maybe I’d just gotten a dud since so many people rate them well

    After years of not using this soap, I was urged to try it again.
    In fact, considering I didn't remember anything about this croap, it was like a first try.
    Astonishing!!!

    It is absolutely odorless, except for a soapy hint, but smoothness, protection and post of absolute relevance, especially considering it in comparison to other much more expensive ones.
    It may seem rhetorical, but I wonder what could happen if they gave it some noble fragrance and a packaging, if not luxurious, at least aesthetically acceptable ...

  18. Menthol Monday:

    Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Astra Green day 8
    Master Soap Creations Frosted Spearmint SS
    Prep ASB
    Master Splash Creations Frosted Spearmint AS Splash
    Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick
    Bleu de Chanel EdP

    Although this Frosted Spearmint is not as intensely mentholated as Stirling Glacial Spearmint it’s still a pretty damned cold soap with the same lovely spearmint scent as well as such thick, rich, mega slick lather, as well as terrific skincare. The Prep and the Frosted Spearmint aftershave provided lots of soothing and extra freeze. Three passes gave me a perfect BBS shave and I had so much fun!

    Have a great week - be well and safe!

    Cold Water Rinse
    Fine Snake Bite Shave Soap
    Bunny B-400 by Tom
    TiBr Wabbit
    Personna Injector
    CWR
    Osage Rub

    The Fine Snake Bite Shave Soap lathered well with The Bunny B-400 by Tom. Two passes and touch ups with the No-code TiBr Wabbit razor with a Personna Injector blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
