Sunday morning:

L’Oreal Men Expert Facial Wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Wilkinson Sword/Derby day 8
Bundubeard Kudu’s Kick SS
Bundubeard Stoffel ASB
Alt Innsbruck AS Splash

I had to do a little repair work on the new Kudu soap because the coffee grinds on the soap puck were preventing the lather from coming up properly but after I scraped them off the lather was perfect. This soap is glycerine based, I love its beautiful coffee/peppermint scent, this is supposed to be the medium mentholated variant but let me tell you that it’s PLENTY cold, and the skincare is wonderful. The Stoffel is a brand new balm from Bundubeard and it has a really nice minty scent, it gives such soothing with lots of moisturizing, and it’s FRIGIDLY cold - Jaco my broer hierdie balm is ‘n skat! Finally the gorgeous old school European scent of the Alt Innsbruck aftershave along with its icy cold menthol punch and I’m good to go. Two passes did the job for me - another phenomenal BBS shave that I enjoyed to the max!

Wishing you all a nice Sunday - be well and stay safe!

Have a great day!​

Morning DE shave, first in a long time.

Wilkinson Sticky
Personna 74
Vintage Faberge (Brut type shave soap)
Rubberset 600N nylon brush

2 pass BBS

Having been fully bearded until very recently, it's been months since I've had a proper DE shave and even longer since I used this 74. While I can't remember which shave number it's on...gotta be close to 10...it seems to be holding up just fine. Still not crazy about the Sticky.

Brut a/s.

I have a few, Paul. The bottle on the right is actually not Bay Rum, but rather a West Indian Lime. Today, I combined the two.

Oh OK.
