    Pomona…..ich kenne diese Seife nicht. Ist es gut?

    Aber nach meiner Meinung hattest du eine angenehme Rasur!

    Jayaruh #463 Synthetic
    Gillette Sheraton

    CWR
    Humphrey's Witch Hazel

    The De Vergulde Hand Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #463 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette Sheraton TTO razor and the Gillette Silver Blue Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Aqua Velva Ice Blue After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Thursday morning:

    Hot shower
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Wilkinson day 10
    AOS Rose Absolute SS (sample)
    Lubriderm Moisturizer
    Aramis EdT

    Yesterday I received a sample of the AOS Rose Absolute soap so this morning I wanted to put it to the test and I must say that it’s very good. It’s scent is nice - in some ways it’s similar to the Klar Kabinett soap which is also rosy scented, the lather exploded off my brush and was thick with good cushion, and it left a pretty comfortable postshave feeling. The Lubriderm moisturizer gave me a lot of help with its soothing, and finally the beautiful Aramis fragrance - now I’m good to go. Another great three pass BBS shave - no complaints whatsoever!

    Wishing you all a wonderful day - be well and stay safe![​IMG]

    • Razor : Yaqi Ghost TI 90 DC. (safety bar/open comb) "open comb side"
    • Blade : Feather Hi-Stainless.(1)
    • Brush : Yaqi Caramel Cat Whiskers synthetic.
    • Soap : Noble Otter Orbit.
    • Balm : T.N. Dickinson's Witch Hazel.
    • Razor weight : 58 grams.
    Hi all,
    Good after work shave yesterday and the first meaningful rain this year.
    I shaved with the Ghost TI 90 on the open comb side and in my opinion I like it better on the
    safety bar side.
    Just to be clear the previous shave was 2 days growth yesterday was 3 days growth.
    I felt the razor didn't shave as efficiently with the open comb side, sometimes it can take a few shaves
    to dial in the angle on an open comb.
    The hybrid plate design was the main reason I wanted to add this razor to my small modern razor line up.
    1 pass WTG/ATG and a few touch ups done.

    I really enjoyed the Noble Otter Orbit the scent is very nice as was the fresh feeling after the shave a little like
    Proraso green on the face but the scent has more going on.

    I hope you all enjoy the coming weekend the footy is back! (AFL) for me. [​IMG]
    Cheers.
