Hi Friends,

Here my Shave of the Day (02.02.2025)


Razor: RazoRock Game Changer .84 // Blade: Gillette Bleue Extra (17) // Soap: MWF // Brush: Maggard 24mm Marble // Aftershave: Tallow Cream

An awesome shave has endet.

The Gillette Bleue Extra in it´s 17th shave did an magnificent job in this razor. Still extremely smooth and gentle. I am really impressed with this blade and love the shave in combo with this razor.

Mitchell´s delivered as always. Lovely scent and tons of glide and cushion. If this would be the only soap to use till the end of my days, i would enjoy every single shave.

2 passes plus minor touch ups and i was BBS.

The Marble Brush from Maggard´s is truly a beauty. The pic won ´t do it´s justice. It has a great knot. Just the right amount of Backbone for me and had no problems facelathering the Fat. I love it.

As Aftershave i used Tallow Cream. A light, creamy scent with hints of honey. Goes on easy and feels light on the skin. Very moisturizing and nourishing.

A 10 out of 10

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

Greetings
Thorsten

Sunday morning’s Grand Freeze:

Quick shower
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Wilkinson day 12
Stirling Glacial Obsidian SS
Gold Bond Moisturizer
Osage Rub AS Splash
Versace Dreamer EdT

Lots of icicles in my face today - the Glacial Obsidian soap froze me to smithereens. I love its black licorice scent, it gave me tons of awesome lather with lots of slickness, and the postshave feeling was wonderful like ALL of Rod’s fantastic soaps. The Gold Bond moisturizer works so well as a balm, and the Rubby Dubby Doo worked its frigid magic. Last but not least the lovely Dreamer fragrance which was a gift from my wife’s cousin. Three passes gave me a most enjoyable BBS shave with no issues whatsoever!

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

Monday 3rd February
Ever Ready 1924 + GEM Stainless #9 + Yaqi Ever Helpful + Palmolive + Brut Original AS + Aloe Vera Gel

Menthol Monday’s Grand Freeze:

Quick shower
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Wilkinson day 13
MSC Citrus Melody SS
Bundubeard Stoffel ASB
MSC Citrus Melody AS Splash
Christian Dior Eau Sauvage EdT

This Wilkinson blade is getting kinda dull but it’s still performing well enough in spite of my hard beard stubble. The Citrus Melody soap smells so beautiful, its tallow formula is so similar to Stirling’s so it gives awesome lather with plenty of slickness, it freezes like a Glacial soap, and it’s so skin friendly. The Stoffel balm soothes and moisturizes so well not to mention how frigid it is, and the Citrus Melody aftershave went on with a monstrous menthol kick. Finally the delightful Eau Sauvage fragrance and I’m good to go. Three passes gave me a helluva nice BBS shave that I enjoyed immensely!

Wishing you all a great week - be well and stay safe!
