SoS: June 2021

If you liked what I shaved with this morning, you'll LOVE my choice for Friday:

SAME AS TODAY!!!!, although the

Brush-Crown King(Spindle Duro Tali)26mm..

is different.

 

SOTD
Filarmonica no13 Muleta
Tony Miller’s Heirloom Razor Strop Co.
3” Artisan ‘Notovan’ Horsehide w/ Flax Linen
Old No2
Rich Man Shaving brush ‘Red Forge’ 26mm
Ultralux HD Silvertip Manchurian Badger
PAA Solstice soap in CK6
PAA Solstice Aftershave and Star Jelly
The scent of sage with sweetgrass and cedar with benzoin resin make this an instant win for me. There isn’t another scent out there like this unless of course you have some sage and sweetgrass.
Great shave.

A truly relaxing shave after a hot day with the family enjoying the pool at the country club. I may have had a little too much today… but the shave was just right.





Happy Healthy Shaves all.

Except for my Rubberset and dubl duck, that's all I have in my den. For quite a while, actually. I guess I am old-fashioned.

 

Friday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Jeeves of Hudson Street
Jayaruh #144
Gillette New Standard Tuckaway
Personna Super (57)
Florida Water

The Jeeves of Hudson Street Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #144 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette New Standard Tuckaway razor with a Personna Super Blade (57) gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

The menthol in Waterlyptus helps to start off another hot day. Combined with an early model EKS brush to create a fine leather for my 1962 slim, a splash of Clubman, and I am off to work.

 

Friday morning’s Grand Freeze:

Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Astra Green day 5
Master Soap Creations Citrus Melody SS
Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill ASB
Master Splash Creations Citrus Melody AS Splash
Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick
Bleu de Chanel EdP

Fernando’s Citrus Melody is such a magnificent soap - the scent is so beautiful - it’s a blend of lemon, lime, and possibly neroli but the lemon seems to dominate, the lather explodes from the brush and gets so thick, rich, as well as mega slick, the menthol sensation is stronger than hell, and the postshave feeling is A1. The Glacial Lemon Chill balm’s scent matches this soap very well, it’s so moisturizing, soothing, and frigid, not to mention how killer cold the Citrus Melody aftershave is. No fragrance to me compares to the Bleu de Chanel - every time I wear it I get so many compliments. The Super Speed/Astra Green combo gave me another awesome BBS shave!

Have a great weekend - stay safe and healthy!
