Great shave. No complaints. I do however think that my Barbasol FT is a bit more of a smooth razor compared to the Gillette Big Boy Deluxe. Razor:Gillette Big Boy DeLuxe Blade: GSB Brush: SOC Boar Soap: Old Spice Shaving Cream A/S: Zirh Erase (missing from the photo)
Yep Guy, you dun gooood! Did she keep the EO percentage that you had her use in the sample for her production shave cream? I want to order a tube of this and I hope she didn't water down the scent; it's amazing just as is!

Ha! I actually had thought you composed the non-shaving items in you pic! Boy, I am such a Luddite and I am just content I know how to use my simple editing software on my computer.
Tuesday's Shave Pre: Hot shower w/ Grandpa's Pine Tar Music: Celtic Rock mix Lather: Arko Brush: Omega 13522 Razor: '46 - '50 Heavy Gold Tech Blade: Wilkinson Sword Classic Post: Witch Hazel, Nivea Sensitive Balm, Tabac aftershave Got a much better lather today but still a little weak. Might try bowl lathering tomorrow. Really focused on my technique today, went slow and focused on applying no pressure. Got a good close shave with minimal irritation, but still got a weeper around my chin, but the chin is one of the spots I struggle with. I think in the future I may need to cut the Tabac with some water or witch hazel, burned pretty good when I put it on. Bit strong too, not sure how I like it, will have to see what the wife thinks.
This shave was ok. I got some irritation on my throat and a weeper on my upper lip. I don't think my lather was where I needed it to be. The menthol in Gada Cool Mint and Stirling Lemon Chill witch hazel is very refreshing. And I've come to enjoy using my Slim once again.
I have a sample of Razorock Classic that Omar sent me a while ago. Today I tested it and had a nice shave with my tech which I haven't used in ages.
Wednesday's Nivea Men's Face Wash ARKO Stick Wild Cherry PTS Schick M2 Adjustable Personna Injector CWR, Asma Alum Block Thayers Rose Petal WH FD Old Spice AS The ARKO Stick face-lathered well with my Wild Cherry PTS Brush. Two passes with my Schick M2 Adjustable and Personna Injector blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, alum block, and a final cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayers Rose Petal WH and then Family Dollar Old Spice after shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
I hope that you will convince her to go with your formula on this one; it is spot on! The SC sample you gave me is dried out in the little tub now but, when I break off a little piece and hit is with a warm watered brush in the lather bowl of my scuttle, it explodes into creamy aeromatic lather that has great performance qualities. Well done Guy!

Vielen Dank für die freundlichen Worte, mein Freund. Ich bin kaum in der Lage, herauszufinden, die meisten Deutschen mit Hilfe der Jahrzehnte alten Klassen und Online-Tools. Ich wollte nur in Deutsch zu schreiben heute, denn ich liebe Tabac und Vorschlaghammer! Pass auf Dich auf! Paul
Paul, ich bin mit Dein Deutsch sehr beeindruckt. Bei mir, ist Deutsch fast instinktiv weil ich es während meiner Kindheit lernte. Obwohl ich israelisch bin, bin ich vom osteuropäischen Ursprung, und ich war immer deutschsprachig. Gerade eben ich auf den Gut Rasiert Forum durchsuchte, wo ich auch ein Mitglied bin. Liebe Grüße und einen erholsamen Abend!
This will be Wednesday's shaving plans! Neutrogena Men Facial Wash Large Horsehair Barbershop Super Speed/SuperMax Blue day 2 Italian Palmolive Menthol SC Gold Bond Moisturizer Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS Hey, just because the weather here in Montreal is very cold doesn't mean that I'm going to stay away from my menthol - in fact I'm going to have an even colder shave than I had today. That Neutrogena facial wash is awesome, the Palmolive Menthol cream is such an icy delicacy with great lather, a wonderful minty/traditional scent, and terrific skincare. For an extra chilly finish I'll slap on the Aqua Velva after I give my face a nice massage with the Gold Bond moisturizer. I'm going to really enjoy my shave in the morning!
