SHAVE Den Sunday


Prep: Musgo Real classic
Razor: Gillette Tech
Blade: Bic Chrome (1st use)
Brush: Fine Angel Hair Synthetc
Soap: TSD Frankincense & myrrh (heavily mentholated)
Post: Reef Point Submariner

2 pass shave this morning. I added way too much menthol crystals to this soap sample, so it is dangerously cold. Made a nice lather as always, have yet to have a bad shave with TSD soap. The menthol blast woke me up for sure, and seems to help with irritation. Nice and smooth BBS finish. Hope everyone has a great Valentines day and a great shave!

February 14
Valentine's Day & Shave Den Sunday

Weber Polished Head DE
Feather (2)
Kent BK4 silvertip badger
TSD unscented
Alum, Thayer's Lavender witch hazel, unrefined shea butter, and CC Bay Rum

ATG, XTG -> near BBS. I enjoyed some warm TSD lather using my Kent silvertip badger brush and my Becker brush scuttle. It was a fantastic way to begin this special day with my Bride. Sixteen years ago this month she was declared cancer-free, and I thank God for her faith, health, love, and companionship. Valentine's Day doesn't get any better than that.

Happy Valentine's Day!

 

SOTD February 14, 2016
Shave Den Sunday!

Prep: Warm shower
Blade: Personna lab blue (2)
Razor: Vintage Gillette Slim (on pass-around from @youngunn)
Brush: Trader Joe's synthetic
Lather: TSD Bay Rum lanolin
Post: Witch hazel splash, TSD Iced Bay Rum, Nivea sensitive balm
WTG, XTG, touch-up

Nice shave again today with the loaned Slim. I really like that razor. The Personna blade worked well again as expected. My synthetic brush from the Trader Joe's kit whipped up enormous amounts of lather from the TSD Bay Rum soap. That soap is truly top-notch. It has beautiful lather, great scent, and the post-shave feel is the best of any soap I've used. I can't say enough good things about TSD soap - really fine stuff.

The TSD Iced Bay Rum went on nice and cold and I finished with Nivea balm. This was a great shave in the end.

I wish you all a great rest of your Valentine's Day!

Thank you Doug.

 

Thank you.

 

Thank you!

 

I didn't even know about this thread. I enjoyed using some TSD soap this evening. The Cantaloupe scent was a little bland and left me wanting more. Can you guys recommend some more complex and stronger scent choices? Thanks in advance.

 

No problem. I was thinking I haven't done a Shave Den Sunday in a while, and it is a great soap, so why not.

 

If you like floral, you might give the Lavender and Rose scent a try. I also really like the Egyptian Spice. It definitely has a lot going on.
