(Face & Head Shave)

A relaxing early morning face & head shave.

A wonderful performance from my now shabby chic looking Semogue 1305/Vie-Long Shave Stick duo.

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

Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of Brut Sport Style ASL.

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

Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

Tuesday morning:

Cool shower
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/7 AM day 10
MSC Vintage Spice SS
Lubriderm Moisturizer
MSC Vintage Spice AS Splash

My brother Fernando in Johannesburg, South Africa is a true Grand Master when it comes to shaving soaps and aftershaves - his Vintage Spice is an example of his talent. The soap is tallow based, it has the EXACT same scent as the Shulton Old Spice, (to me) the lather is so awesome, it’s super slick, and the postshave feeling is mega comfortable. The Lubriderm moisturizer as I keep saying works fabulously as a balm, and the Vintage Spice aftershave has no stinging or burning because it’s witch hazel based - not only that, that beautiful scent lasts just about all day. I did three slow passes so I could enjoy this shave to the max and did I ever get BBS - wowwwwwwww!!!!

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

Thanks for your great posts. You're a good spokesman for MSC and Lubriderm both. I was wondering about the order of application for them. Do you apply the Lubriderm first, or the aftershave?

Thanks for the appreciation!

First I apply the Lubriderm and then the aftershave.

The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #474 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette NEW Deluxe Razor and the Perma-Sharp Super 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...
