Greetings,

A very enjoyable comfortable shave to finish my shaving week off in style the Parker 94R/Dorco PP is an excellent duo.

The Ach Brito Mogno soap is a wonderful performer it gets top marks for it's performance scent, protection, slickness & post shave.
My reacquaintance with the classic Davidoff Cool Water ASL has been a joy to use. It has to be one of my all time favourite fragrance's which I've like since the 90's when i was first purchased some..IMHO it's the best Davidoff fragrance.

It my 60th birthday in June...As a present to myself I will be placing an order for some Goodfellas Smile Abysso shaving soap & matching ASL splash which suppose to be very Reminiscent of the Davidoff Cool Water fragrance. I look forward to trying the duo out.

Another enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Creightons Sensitive PSB.

My face is feeling smooth cool, & smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

 

Fantastic shave Brian!

Who makes that soap?

Thursday morning:

King C. Gillette Facial Wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Rapira day 11
MSC Vintage Spice SS
Aveeno Moisturizer
MSC Vintage Spice AS Splash

The more I use this Vintage Spice soap and aftershave the more I love them. My brother Fernando created a perfect substitute for the discontinued Shulton Old Spice stuff - the scent of this Vintage Spice is absolutely the same as the Shulton Old Spice in every way imaginable - it’s so beautiful. The soap’s tallow formula gives it such awesome lather with plenty of slickness, and great skincare. The Aveeno moisturizer is unscented so it can’t disrupt the scent of any aftershave or fragrance you use, and the Vintage Spice aftershave is witch hazel based so it doesn’t burn or sting - not only that, it smells so gorgeous, just like the Shulton Old Spice aftershave and cologne - it also has great longevity. Three passes gave a dynamite BBS that was such a pleasure!

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

The De Vergulde Hand Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #217 Silvertip Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick M-2 Adjustable Razor and a Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Cella After Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
