Decided to give the Willy's another chance on a 2 day growth...

Gillette Aristocrat ~ 1947
Willy’s Premium blade (1) made in the Kashmir area
Slightly rough blade, functional but not as smooth as others
This was a freeby that came with my Pearl Flexi

Who was Willy anyway?
One weeper, but overall very decent shave

Greetings,

Recently I've being on "menthol theme shave mode" the combination of being a cold water shaver & the menthol creams & soaps are an stimulation invigorating tonic for my face & head sensors.

Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Aloe Vera Gel.

My face is feeling cool & super smooth.

Keep safe and enjoy your Sunday ladies & gentlemen.

Hi Friends,

Here my Shave of the Day (06.04.2025)


Razor: Parker Solo Edge // Blade: Polsilver Super Iridium // Soap: B&M Lavanille // Brush: Olivewood Syntetic // Aftershave: Witch Hazel - B&M Lavanille

A mighty fine shave. The Parker Solo Edge is a great shaving tool. Smooth, gentle and thoroughly.

The soap with it´s wonderful manly and elegant scent performed as expected. Tons of glide and cushion.

After 2,5 passes the shave was done. BBS at it´s best.

Applied some Witch Hazel, followed by the matching Aftershave which smelled awesome too, but it is a little different from the soap, more spicy but still wonderful.

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

Greetings
Thorsten

Lather Catcher Sunday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Musgo Real Shaving Soap
Jayaruh #466 Synthetic
Superior Lather Catcher
Personna Gem Stainless PTFE
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Pinaud Citrus Musk EDC

The Musgo Real Shaving Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #466 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Superior Lather Catcher razor and the Personna Gem Stainless PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Pinaud Citrus Musk EDC. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Sunday morning’s Custom Made Grand Freeze:

Hot shower
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Goodfella/Wilkinson day 7
MSC Wintergreen SS
Stirling Glacial Wintergreen ASB
MSC Wintergreen AS Splash
Lagerfeld Classic EdT

Damn, never in my life did I think that there’s a colder soap and aftershave than Glacial Wintergreen but leave it to my brother Fernando to create it. His Wintergreen stuff has the EXACT same delightful scent as the Glacial Wintergreen, the soap is also tallow based, the lather is such a pleasure to whip up, there’s so much slickness, the menthol sensation is INSANE, and the postshave feeling is so soothing as well as comfortable. The Glacial Wintergreen balm gives great moisturizing along with a monstrous menthol effect, and Fernando’s Wintergreen aftershave must be used very sparingly because it’s so potent that it can make your eyes tear for hours - yes, it’s even beats the Arctique from B&M. Three passes gave me a heavenly BBS shave that was so much fun. There are no labels on the soap tub or aftershave bottle because this stuff was made exclusively for ME!

Enjoy your Sunday and your shaves - be well and stay safe!
