    Greetings,

    Early Morning shave.

    A great performance from the Omega 10005 boar brush. I like to revisiting my boar brushes, they work superbly with hard soaps & Shave sticks.

    Another close comfortable shave the Vie-Long stick provided a slick protective lather in a short space of time.

    Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Cien Men Sensitive ASB.

    My face & precious swede are feeling smooth & smelling divine.;)

    Tabac Tuesday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Tabac Shave Soap
    SlimGem 3D Printed Badger
    Supply SE Injector
    Supply Black Label Blade
    Cold Water Rinse
    Tabac After Shave

    The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with the SlimGem 3D Printed Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Supply SE Injector razor and the Supply Black Label Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Tuesday morning:

    King C. Gillette Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Bic day 13
    Barbon SC
    Lubriderm Moisturizer
    Max Disinfecting AS Splash

    The Barbon cream is so nice - it’s one of the best products from Hungary. I love its scent, it’s a pleasure to lather, and strangely enough it’s like medical anesthesia to the skin because it stops the bleeding from a nick or a cut and it kills the pain right away. The Lubriderm moisturizer is so soothing, and the Max Disinfecting aftershave smells amazing. Two passes were good enough for a great BBS shave that was very enjoyable!

    Have a good day - be well and stay safe![​IMG]

    Razor : Razorock Lupo.72 SSP with a Yaqi handle. Mfg 2021>, mid range. Excellent machining, finish and great design on head for under the nose. Checks all the boxes for my shaving needs for a DE razor
    Blade : Nacet (4) sharp and smooth with excellent longevity.
    Soap : TOBS herbal Sandalwood cream, very nice herbal touch scent that is addictive to many with excellent lather qualities.
    Brush : Yaqi"Moka express" 26 mm synthetic knot. This limited production just turns my crank for face feel luxury.
    Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
    Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave : Ogallala bayrum + a dollop of Geo Trumper Sandalwood skin food.
    Results : Dial 10.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my RR Lupo.72 with a Nacet blade.

    I absolutely LOVE it. I was a little hesitant to buy it but the price is right, it comes with 100 free blades (which are terrific, by the way) and since they added the little magnet to help positioning of the blade, it's a really good design. I have a Leaf Twig & Thorn, both of which are fantastic, and this one is right there with them. Very smooth. And close enough. Not terribly aggressive but that's fine with me.
