Shave Den Sunday

Shave Den Sunday!!

Prep: Warm water rinse
Blade: Schick injector
Razor: Schick Eversharp G-type injector
Brush: Escali badger
Lather: TSD lanolin bay rum
Post: Witch hazel splash, TSD Iced bay rum after shave, Nivea sensitive balm
WTG, XTG (neck and jaw only), touch-up

My first Shave Den Sunday post! Received a big haul of TSD products yesterday. Wow!! This was a terrific shave! The bay rum soap is a heavy clove-influenced scent. It reminds me of the holidays. The lather is top-notch - exceptionally easy to load, rich, thick, cushioning - all the good stuff you're looking for. The Escali badger brush lost a good many hairs a couple of days ago but performed really well today. I had enough lather left over to do two or three more passes. The post shave feel after the cold water rinse was the best I've ever experienced. I am really pleased and impressed with the TSD soap!

The Schick razor was a gift to me and I've really enjoyed it. I will return to a Maggard DE tomorrow to begin a new focus, but the Eversharp will be close by and I'll use it off and on.

TSD's iced bay rum was a real treat. It stung a little bit at first and then the menthol kicked in and really cooled things off. I finished with Nivea balm.

All in all this was a terrific shave. I'm overly impressed with the quality of the TSD products! Now I see why so many of you sing their praises.

Have a great end to your weekend!

Shave Den Sunday

February Focus begins a day early with my Schick Type D - The first Schick Injector Razor circa 1935

Shave 1
Hot Shower
Razor: Schick Type D
Blade: Schick (China) (1)
Soap: TSD Unscented
Brush: Rubberset 400-4
TSD Witch Hazel
TSD Aftershave Milk
TSD Acqua Di Gio



3-day growth = 3-pass shave.

First shave with the D - a beautiful razor and a great shave.
First pass (WTG) seemed very efficient, so second pass went right to ATG and a very comfortable shave.

First impression - this razor was extremely easy to maneuver and settle in on the shave angle. Efficient, close and casual - casual because I immediately got the angle and it appeared to flow across the face with minimal to no pressure and even provided a good ATG on upper chin and corners of my mouth where I hardly ever do ATG.

I think I’m going to enjoy this month!

Cheers!

I really like the suction cup storage rack for the razors! I need something like that.

 

Yes Perry, the slotted toothbrush holder is very nice for this purpose. It's a 4 brush holder that I found in the Jungle (Amazon ;-)
Great when you have minimal counter space and not very expensive either. Holds DEs as well, though it seems to get overloaded if I try 4 razors at once. They sell a one holder version as well.

 

Simply exquisite!

 

Thank you.

Great looking shave for Sunday.

 

Thanks Doug! Tomorrow may be a busy day, lots of people at the house! I didn't want to miss out, so I made my photos today!

 

And we also sing the praises because TSD is an ad-free forum! TSD is an entirely user supported community, and we appreciate you joining in!

 

Hope your guests are family and that you have Wonderful Time.
Nothing better than having the family over. It is at times like that, that when people are me what I've do with my life I show them a picture of our family gathering. God Bless.
