  4. Super Sunday shave Barry. I like Stirling because it has lanolin. The Shave Den soaps have the option of adding lanolin. It wasn't until recently that I like TSD soaps.
  5. Awesome shave Gary. I guess you could press the chunks together.

    5/8 Dovo Best Quality

    I haven't used my Dovo Best Quality straight since March so it got the call today. I did 3 passes for a nice, comfortable shave. I did get a micro weep on my chin, but the cold water sealed it right up.
    I also went with Soap Commander Vision because it's also been awhile since I last used it. It was a sample given to me by Joe @JACarbone. Thanks again Joe. I would say this soap has a barbershop scent to it. It's mild so that it really would go with any aftershave imo. It's easy to lather and it is quite slick. Here's my lather:

    I didn't get any alum feedback. Splashed on the witch hazel and the Pinaud-Clubman Classic aftershave to finish this shave. Take care.

    DE Shave #’s 535 & 536 - Gemini Shave - Busta’s Blend

    Razor: PAA Prismatic
    Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
    Brush: PAA The Green Ray 24 mm
    Pre-Shave: Pears Transparent Soap
    Lather: Tim’s Soap Busta’s Blend
    Aftershave: Floïd Genuine Vigoroso
    Additional Care:
    Omega Alum
    Dickenson’s Original Witch Hazel
    Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm

    Fantastic shaves with the Prismatic DE razor. While delivering an exceptionally close shave the lid razor serenades you while removing your daily growth. Both shaves were done with customary three passes.

    I had a busy two day preparing for and entertaining for Anthony’s birthday party. We had a beautiful day. The kids in attendance enjoyed their first dip into our pool for the summer.

    Hope you all had a great day.
  8. Very nice shave Gary. Does that aftershave a close dupe of the now unobtainable Floid Blue?

  9. You are correct. The Vision soap is Soap Commanders interpretation of a barbershop scent. Very nice shave Joe.
