6/11/2015 Throwback Thursday!! Prep: Hot shower with Neutrogena Face Wash with menthol, home made PSO Razor: Muhle R41 (2011), Dubl Duck Goldedge straight razor Blade: Astra SP (4) Brush: Vie Long Horse Hair Soap: Speick After: Home made ASB, Speick after shave Cologne: Aqua H2O I had to reach deep into the cabinet to find the Speick. The Vie Long brush had no trouble whipping the Spieck into a wonderful lather. The R41 and the Duck did a fine job knocking down the stubble. The Speick AS and the Aqua H2O were a nice finish to a Darn Fine Shave. Have a blessed day!
Congrats to you and the wife on 26 years. Thanks great! I hope you guys have a great night and wish you the best on many more.
A very nice shave with the Blackland razor this morning. Since I started out relatively 'clean' as far as stubble goes all it took was one WTG pass and I was out the door. Oddly mild and effective
Shave of the day Pre- Hot shower, Oil cleanser Soap/cream- Proraso eucalyptus and menthol Brush- Turkish nr 6 Razor- Merkur 37c Blade- Rapira super stainless Post- Cold water rinse, alum, Proraso eucalyptus and menthol aftershave lotion, Proraso eucalyptus and menthol pre/post shave and Nivea sensitive cooling aftershave balm Very nice shave today, i had like a week of growth. CHILDPLAY for the merkur. The rapira was okey, but not sharp enough for me or at least not sharp enough for such a growth. The coldness of proraso products is great. I love proraso products! I have a travel size of proraso pre/post, but I'm definitely getting a full size one when its all used up =) Long time ago I used my My Turkish nr6 and it is way better than my semogue haha. A little scritchy but I will break it in!
Razor: Gillette Redtip, (A-3) 1955 Blade: Gillette, Platinum (8) Brush: Silver Tip Badger, Butterscotch handle 24/67 (VIG) Soap: Knock Out Shave Cool Blue Mug: Soak my brush in the Old Spice coffee mug for about a minute. A/S: Clubman Pinaud Musk Made a new brush last night and had to try it today. Worked very well. First time I have used the Gillette Platinum blade past 7 days. The blade performed excellent. Good shave tonight. Excellent soap and A/S.
