December 2018 30 Day Rule/Focux Pix & Discussion

Neal, could you follow up on what you mean here...let's say, for instance, I don't use a particular shave soap for over a month(which is becoming the case now, as I have many-for me that is). When I bring out that soap(that hasn't been used for a month)will that one lather easier than before?)

 

In my experience, creams lather much easier than soaps. That's what I was after there. As far as leaving them sit between uses (soaps, that is) it depends on the soap. My Stirling soaps don't seem to care how long they wait in their tubs. They lather just as easily every time. Mitchell's, if not used often enough, will actually shrink up as it dries out making it harder and in need of some help getting back to an easy lathering state. The hard soaps, MWF, Williams, anything like that tend to do that. Is that more clear?

 

I wish I knew what a copy party was Perry.

 

It is, yes. The only "cream" I have that "doubles" as a soap is from Razorock, the Aqua "Shave Cream/Soap". I always get good lather going with that one. More of a struggle with my other Razorock, the 3x milled "Lime Burst".

 

Excellent shave and photo Jim. I hope you had a relaxing afternoon.

 

Thanks Danny.

Good idea on the Tabasco bottle.

 

Thanks very much, Gary!

 

Even I have second thoughts on some of my goofy posts. I can't run and hide from a couple of Mods, though.

nice set up, lovely pic..

 

thank you ..

 

It’s not shown anywhere near what it should be at a lot of companies. But with how well we are treated goes a long way, especially when the call comes about needing to go out of town with one to four days notice for a few days or weeks.

 

I'm takin' that baby as a no.

 

James Taylor would have something to say about your post here:

"You can run, but you cannot hide
"This is widely known"

a well oiled machine operates the smoothest...

 

Thank you, Patrick! The soap is definitely worth it IMO.

 

Thank you, Perry! I see the melted chocolate ice cream as well. An interesting color for shave lather.

 

Thank you, Clint!

 

I'm going to have to conduct an "ongoing investigation" to see how I feel about that kind of shave lather.

 

Thank you, Gary!
