My first shave at my new place and sorry for no pic. I haven't set up my den yet and just grabbed what I needed for today's shave from boxes. It could be a couple of more days until I do. Two passes with a bit of touch up for a great and smooth BBS shave.

Menthol Monday's Shave


Proraso Pre Shave
Fine Snake Bite
JR #258 Synthetic
47 Gillette Aristocrat
Polsilver Super Iridium
CWR
Thayer's Lemon WH
Aqua Velva Musk

I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Fine Snake Bite Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the JR #258 Synthetic brush. I did two passes with the 1947 Gillette Aristocrat Razor using a Polsilver Super Iridium blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
