  5. Doc says it was a close one, but it looks like I may pull through.

    Couple weepers on the cheek and neck. The razor's a bit milder than what I prefer, so I think I overcompensated with too much pressure.

    Another new Oumo brush, the Mars with a Lotus Manchurian bulb. Joined by The Colonial General and Charcoal Goods tritium handle. Also some Razorock MF suds followed up with Speick after shave.

    Greetings,
    A early morning returning to work shave after been furloughed since early December 2020...I'm now on permanent dayshift for the foreseeable future, and for the next 5-6 weeks the returning furloughed workers are on a 3 day 8 hour shift rota due to covid-19 UK working regulations. So this week i work for the next two days then I am off until the following Monday!...Anyway it'll be good for me to get back into the swing of things and have some real interaction with my fellow workers face to face rather than talking to them on the phone, text and emails... At least i have a job until i get myself something with more stability. The extra days off will give me a opportunity to look for something better...Even though everyone i work with are in the same frame of mind but, you have speculate to accumulate and get off your arse and find it.

    A Enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report...Finishing to the shave off with a generous splash of Dana ~ English Leather ASL.

    My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.;)

    Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

    After shaving with Martin de Candre, there was a little soap left over that I hated to waste: I used it today.
    No change from the sensations of the other day.

    After using @fredyx's soap, I find the French less smooth than this one, but, in any case an excellent shave.
    To be picky, I did feel the scent a bit more intense. But my nose is not reliable...

    The performers followed the script perfectly even though I doubt they will win an Oscar.

    Tabac Tuesday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Bunny B-400 by Tom
    Cold Water Rinse
    Tabac Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #277 Badger
    Fuzzy Lather Catcher
    Personna GEM SS PTFE
    CWR
    Tabac ASB

    The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with The Jayaruh #277 Badger. Two passes and touch ups with the Fuzzy Lather Catcher razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

  18. Tuesday morning:

    L’Oreal Barber Club Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Astra Green day 2
    Master Soap Creations Grapefruit Cinnamon SS
    L’Oreal Hydra Energetic ASB
    Italian Barber Amici AS Splash
    Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick
    Bleu de Chanel EdP

    Another one of Fernando’s magnificent soaps that I received last week and today was my first time using it. This Grapefruit Cinnamon has a lovely scent - it’s so refreshing as well as classy in my opinion, it lathers so thick, rich, with terrific slickness thanks to my big Yaqi Barber Pole, and the tallow base helps it give great skincare. The L’Oreal Hydra Energetic balm felt very soothing and moisturizing, while the Amici aftershave went on cool along with a beautiful scent which pairs very well with the scent of this soap. What a cracking good BBS shave this was!

    Have a great day - stay healthy and safe!
