    Been a while since I posted! Tomorrow is my Birthday! 67 (dang, it feels weird saying that!) Been doing a few projects. I got the clutch replaced in my Harley to remove the "Spring Plate" (also called the grenade) and been working on building new axle for my wood splitter. Took all the winter attachments off the tractor.

    Weather has been HOT so, I broke out the "Cryogen" soap and cool pre-shave cream. All set for before bed tonight. I have not shaved in a few days so, I have a lot to clean off!

    Shaving Recipe for today.

    Prep: Warm shower:/ Dove Men+Care Clean Comfort Body + Face Wash.
    Pre:
    Cold wet flannel to my face & head.
    Pears Original Transparent Bar Soap.
    Brush: Fine 24mm Synthetic.
    Bowl Lather.
    Bowl : Home Bargains Stainless Steel Side Bowl.
    Lather: Cella Bio Aloe Vera Shaving Cream.
    Lather: MWF.
    Razor: Muhle R89 (Face) - Silver Star Super Stainless. (D1)
    Razor: Parker InjRzr. (Head/Dome) (Settings) 4-wtg. 4-xtg/atg.+pick-ups. - Personna Injector PTFE. (D4)

    Post:
    Cold water face & head wash with brush squeezing's, Cold Water Face & Head Rinse./Alum Rub. /Homemade (~Spring/Summer mix~) Lemon, Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Essential Oils.3 Menthol Crystals Mixed Together With 200ml of Care+Witch Hazel./ Brut Attraction Totale ASL./Aloe Vera Gel.

    (Face & Head Shave)

    A new shave set up to start the weekend... I have returned to the Silver Star Super Stainless which have became my favourite from the Lord/Sotraco factory. Out of curiosity I'll be using the same blade with each of my shaves to test it's longevity & smoothness.

    Everything in my shave set up this morning worked together wonderfully...The Cella Bio Aloe Vera shaving cream provided me with a protective lather in no time it doesn't have the same slickness as the original tallow version , but it's still a very good shaving cream. I will be placing an order for a bottle of the matching Cella Aloe Vera ASL as a early birthday present to myself.

    Another enjoyable close comfortable 2 pass + pick ups face and head shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Aloe Vera Gel.

    My face & precious swede are feeling super smooth & smelling divine. ;)

    Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen. :cool:

    Saturday Straights' Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Van Der Hagen Luxury Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #41 Badger
    J.R. Torrey
    CWR
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Lustray Spice After Shave

    The Van Der Hagen Luxury Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #41 Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the J.R. Torrey Straight gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Saturday morning:

    L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Junjie/Rapira day 13
    Palmolive Menthol SC
    Prep ASB
    Mennen Skin Bracer AS Splash

    Today is going to be a beautiful warm, sunny day so after I get my injection to prevent blood clots in my leg following my hip surgery I think I’ll do some sunbathing. The Palmolive Menthol cream’s delightful minty scent filled my bathroom, the lather was perfect, the menthol sensation felt heavenly, and the postshave feeling was so soothing as well as so comfortable. The Prep and the Skin Bracer aftershave were a great finishing combo. I’m hoping the Rapira blade can last until Monday although today it helped me get a great three pass BBS shave.

    See y’all soon - be well and stay safe![​IMG]
