    Friday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Nivea Shave Cream
    Alpha T-400 Silvertip Badger
    Probak Razor
    Gillette Silver Blue
    CWR
    Humphrey's Witch Hazel
    Nivea After Shave Balm

    The Nivea Shave Cream lathered well with Alpha T-400 Silvertip Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Probak DE Razor and the Gillette Silver Blue Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Nivea After Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

  15. 11796507-E647-48A2-A83D-635597803BAF.jpeg preshave: hot shower, then 2-3 swipes of the paa mentholated cube. 1st pass will be with the feather ac sr, and will finish with either the muhle r89 or the fatip picolli. I’ll probably use the soft guard blade for the 3rd time with the shavette because I’m very new with these, and a new feather blade in the de. I just got this savile row silvertip and although I’ve been a bowl latherer up till now, I’ve decided to try face lathering especially with a super great badger like this one. soap: martin de candre forage.

    (Face & Head Shave)

    Greetings,

    A new shave set up to start the weekend..

    This morning I went for the Vitos Vegetal with it's wonderfully 'Full On' vibrant sweet almond scent. If you like almond scented shaving products this soap will surprise you with it's fragrance performance and post shave feel...Superb stuff!

    Like the Cella Extra Extra Bio Organic Aloe Vera Shaving Cream last weekend it's equal in everyway IMHO to the Vitos Red (tallow) version.

    Another close comfortable combined face & head shave with no errors to report.

    Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of P&G Old Spice Original ASL.

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

    Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.:cool:
