Hehe, I did see that thread, and even started reading it but my eyes glazed over and I gave up on page 1 I think Lol!

the barn doors..

fair enough..many british hard soaps had reformulations that rendered them useless..that thread lists them up to current reformulations with ingredients lists and which ones to avoid buying.there are many still floating around for sale on the open market for less or discount prices..

Thank you Joe.

Greetings,

Early morning shave,

A wonderful lather was created in a short space of time from the Boots shave stick leaving a superb post shave feel.

Another great shave to finish my shaving week off on a high.

A close comfortable 2 pass + pick ups silky smooth shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Boots Freshwood ASB.

My face is feeling smooth, & smelling divine.

Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

cool Boots shave Barry.

Thank you Gary. I was fortunate to pick up three sticks & two bottle of the splash before the discontinuation of them. Another loss of great shaving products no longer in production.

Perfect Parker Shave Barry.

Brush: Sawdust Creation Studio Malle Burl
Lather: PAA Atomic Age Bay Rum
Aftershave: FreyjasMagic Thor’s Hammer Bay Rum
Additional Care:
Omega Alum
Dickenson’s Original Witch Hazel

Fabulous Bay Rum shave this morning. The razor, the first Shavette added to the den in 2018, delivered a super close shave. I did manage to small delayed weepers which the alum easily took care of.

Prior to my shave, I had an invigorating X3Bar workout. Yes, Joe,@ Trigger, Beast mode is in the house. Now I am off to my mother’s house for day three of painting her bathroom Fortunately she is not in the supervisory mode, which is strange for her.

Hope you all have a fabulous day.

Thank you Joe.

Terrific Thursday shave Joe. I haven't been in Beastmode for awhile. Lol!

Shavette Shave #588
Magic by Master Barber
Derby 1/2 DE Blade (3)
MrEE Tuxedo Brush
Seaforth Sea Spice Lime SS and AS
Stirling Alum Block
Personal Care Witch Hazel
Beard Growth: 46 hrs



Three passes gave me a very smooth, close and comfortable shave without any red liquid escaping from the confines of my skin.
It's a dreary and rainy day on Long Island so I picked the Seaforth Sea Spice Lime to pock me up. This soap loves water and makes a creamy, slick lather. Here it is:



Had one zing from the alum so I am pleased about it. Splashed on the witch hazel and the matching aftershave to end this session. Take care.

Real nice Throwback Thursday shave this morning-the way it SHOULD be on TT. Great work st the Loading Dock, with the Crown King brush...didn't time it but as it turned out that was OK. Clean and clear shave all around. No damage of any kind, anywhere. As for the aftershave, the pour spout on the P&G version of Old Spice needs to be tighter, as I had to be careful to avoid a Niagra Falls appearance. Did Shulton have theirs tighter? Anyway, smells and feels nice. I'd love to see Shulton by it back from P&G, as if to say "Two can play in this money game, BUDDY!". Very pleased overall. As Outstanding As It Gets.

Thanks Joe....the brush is still my favorite.
