Hi Friends,

Here my Shave of the Day (07.07.2024)


Razor: RazoRock Hawk V3 // Blade: Feather Pro Super // Soap: PAA Briar // Brush: Doriancrafts // Aftershave: Alum - Ebenholz Aftershave Balm

I hope you ´re doing fine.

Had a wonderful shave. From start to finish top notch.

Lathered up the wonderful smelling Briar soap in my Fine Lather Bowl which i love. So easy and fast to create great lather.

The Briar scent is definitely Tobacco which just a hint of smoke, added with some kind of woodsy notes, is this scent REALLY a calming and enjoyable scent. Great.

Used the Feather Pro Super in the Hawk which gave me an nice and easy 2-pass BBS shave with no nicks, cuts, irritations whatsoever.

Applied the Alum Block which only had minor stinging to it and lacking of the matching AS Splash i used my Ebenholz Balm which is a huge contrast to the soap due it´s fruity notes. But the scent disappears really quickly so that it is not a problem. Skincare of the Balm is absolutely fabulous.

10 out of 10

Have great time, enjoy your shaves and stay safe and healthy.

Greetings
Thorsten

The Proraso Red Sandalwood Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #224 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the J.A. Henckels Rapide Lather Catcher and the J.A. Henckels Rapide wedge blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Clubman Pinaud Classic Vanilla After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Didn't the Barbasol used to be called "Pacific Blue" before "Cool Menthol"? I like the latter better.

 

Back 9 of the Barbasol/Skin Bracer combination this morning. With this heat, I might as well have shaved with Clubman. Naaah, I learned my lesson a few summers ago as I was "dripping aftershave" from the Clubman. But the Barbasol gave me a real nice shave this morning-clean and clear all around with goose-eggs on the cuts/Knicks, Polka-dots. One pass. Good work from the Skin-Bracer A.S. No cologne today. As Outstanding As It Gets.

 

Thank you.

The Wee Scot made a last minute appearance in my Sunday shave. This little brush definitely punches above its weight.

 

Thank you, Gus.
