Here's how I opened October. prep-Stoylin soap(Sandpiper)in shower shave-Barbasol Original Outstanding Goo razor-Gillette Sensor Deuce Pivot DisposeABLE A.S.-Bill Neumann(Signature 1907) Since I don't have Bill Neumann 1907 soap, I'll have to match the A.S. with some sophisticated goo. AAAAh, that'll be all right. Barbasol did the job nicely for me today-1 pass and no Cuts, Knicks, Polka-dots, Nice overall shave. Again, I should have done better down at Cactus Nation(neck). I'll try to correct that tomorrow. Super Duper Excellent.

Sunday morning’s Grand Freeze: Neutrogena Deep Clean Facial Wash Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Canadian Tech/Wilkinson Sword day 5 MSC Peppermint Lime SS Prep ASB MSC Peppermint Lime AS Splash Aramis EdT I’ve tried shaving every second day and it’s just no good - my friggin beard stubble is so tough that it’s a struggle so it’s back to shaving every day. The Peppermint Lime soap and aftershave are so delightful - the scent is exactly what it implies - a beautiful mix of peppermint and lime. The soap is tallow based so it gives lots of thick, rich, slick lather along with a killer cold menthol sensation and such great postshave care which the wonderful Prep balm enhances, and the Peppermint Lime aftershave is witch hazel based so there’s no burning or stinging from it not to mention how frigid it is. A superb three pass BBS shave that was so much fun! Enjoy your Sunday - be well and safe! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Razor - Ever-Ready "Lather Catcher" Blade - fresh GEM Personna SS Soap - TOBS "Mr Taylor's Shaving Cream" Pre-shave - Proraso Red Brush - Perfecto Post-shave - Thayers Toner with witch hazel "Lavender"& Geo F Trumper Skinfood AS - Pinaud Clubman I got in a hurry and did not spend enough time softening the 2-day growth. I warmed the Scupper mug and brush with HOT water and warmed face with HOT washcloth (but not long enough). TOBS is always easy to whip to a nice lather. I did a 2-pass shave with no cleanup WTG & ATG. The first pass really tugged and I could feel the irritation with the first face rinse. Re-applied and did second pass that was more pleasant but, the damage was done! Alum bar gave considerable feedback and I had 3 small weepers. Leak stopper took care of them. Nice close shave but, I will not go fast again!
The grocery store is a Wegman's and it is a VERY popular place to shop! Good prices. I always try to get there early in the morning. It gets CRAZY at noontime! PACKED with old people! (I resemble that!) They have the best fresh bakery bread and the produce is fresh too. Meat is really good as well. It looked like others have gotten the same idea! It was not as bad as I have seen it, but, it was busy!
Sunday SOTD: 1953 Gillette President Feather blade Cella shave soap “Blade” boar brush - a cheap brush I got at Marshalls a few weeks ago Finished off the shave with the Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements alum block and Cella aftershave I’ve been doing this wet shave thing for about 3 years now and I’m still learning. Last night I watched a great video on YouTube about face lathering (I’m a face latherer) and I tried out what I learned today and it worked. And a few weeks ago I figured out the concept of “riding the cap” and it has really made a difference in the shave experience, particularly when I go ATG.
