    Dove Men Face Wash
    Arko Stick
    Jayaruh #8 Pure Badger
    Schick E2
    Personna Stainless
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayers Rose Petal WH
    FD Old Spice

    The Arko Stick shaving soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #8 Pure Badger brush. Two passes with my Schick E2 razor and a Personna Stainless 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 FD Old Spice after shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Planned Bay Rum Wednesday SOTD
    [​IMG]
    48' Aristocrat razor
    Treet Platinum blade
    Vie-Long horse hair brush
    Ogallala Bay Rum, Sage & Cedar shave stick
    Ogallala Bay Rum, Limes & Peppercorns aftershave skin toner
    HTGAM Bay Rum Aftershave Cologne

    I have totally ignored my bay rum products lately and I was feeling guilty. Ogallala shave sticks are lather machines and the scent of the soap and aftershave are not only unique but complex. The HTGAM bay rum cologne is in your face clovey burn, which I really dig.

    I am fighting the urge to shave right now before bed, I love this stuff so much.

    This is the first time I've tried Maca Root Shaving Cream and it performed nicely. I received a sample of the cream when I purchased The Body Shop synthetic brush. Nice shave today, have a good one.

    Troy M Prep: Mephitis mephitis musk

    5/6/15

    Prep: warm wash
    Lather: Dusy Kabinett
    Brush: Vie-Long 13061M horsehair
    Razor: Gillette New SC
    Blade: Rapira Lux (4)
    Post: Old Spice Pure Sport

    Face lathered the DK with the horsehair brush and it worked well. 2 pass shave with a touch up on my neck and a DFS came about. I set a 5 minute timer for brush soaking in the old Seaforth mug and the rest of the lather/shave/clean up took 8 minutes. I didn't use the vintage cologne pictured here because it is a touch harsh.[​IMG]
