    Pears Transparent Bar Soap. + Nuage Menthol shaving Oil.
    Brush: Fine 24mm Synthetic.
    Bowl Lather.
    Bowl: Home Bargains Stainless Steel Side Bowl.

    Cold water face wash with brush squeezings, Cold Water Face Rinse. /Homemade (~Spring/Summer mix~) Lemon, Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Essential Oils. + 3 Menthol Crystals, Mixed Together With 200ml of Care+Witch Hazel./Cien X-Bolt ASL./Aloe Vera Gel.

    Greetings,

    Early morning shave.

    The Monsavon au lait as always provided me with a wonderful protective slick lather for the shave leaving an excellent post shave feel....I had all intentions to carry on with Baili Platinum + blade for a third outing but changed my mind at the last minute and used a fresh one instead which felt smooth and efficient.

    A Enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups acceptable comfortable shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with a small dollop of Aloe Vera Gel.

    My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine. upload_2021-7-27_7-9-56.gif ;)

    Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen. upload_2021-7-27_7-9-56.gif :cool:

    Razor: A I dont remember 3 piece razor
    Blade: super iridium?
    Brush: Jayaruh synthetic
    Soap: Vintage French Palmolive
    Post: Medicated witch hazel
    A/S: pinaud vanilla

    So ive had this soap for awhile and unfortunately the moisture in my bathroom ruined the paper wrapper. So since the soap is loose now i decided to try it out..

    So first thing i noticed…. It looks like crap. Literally the color looks like dark brown piece of hard crap. Lol the tip was a little dingy looking and i was really second guessing myself. This soap is hard and it smells musky and old. I rubbed this nasty soap on my face LOL! So the lather is also like a yellowish weird tint..the lather was separating from this weird foam which looked like old thin foam from some kind of liner .. it was weird. The lather kept disappearing like new Williams and had similar slickness. I kept adding water in between passes and the lather thickened up. This soap likes water and performed really well on the later passes. The musky scent disappeared as i lathered, but the yellowish tint was still there.

    A damn good shave . Bbs smooth.

    Cold Water Rinse
    Tabac Shave Soap
    Tom's B-3 Badger Brush
    Schick M Adjustable
    Schick Proline B20
    CWR
    Tabac AS

    The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with Tom's B-3 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick M Adjustable Razor with a Schick Proline B20 Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Tuesday morning:

    Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Astra Green day 2
    Bundubeard Kudu’s Kick SS
    Prep ASB
    Alt Innsbruck AS Splash
    Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick
    Bleu de Chanel Parfum

    How can I neglect my dear friend Jaco’s great soaps? The Kudu’s Kick has such a lovely coffee/peppermint scent, it gives such thick, rich, slick lather, its menthol sensation feels so good, and it leaves a very comfortable postshave feeling. The Prep and the Alt Innsbruck finished the job perfectly. Another awesome three pass BBS work of art!

    Enjoy your day and your shaves - be well and safe!
