Friday mid day shave:

Shavemac GB '08
5/8 Wapi
Col Conk Almond soap
Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS

Good shave, but stil getting used to using straights as I am still having some difficulty right under the chin. And I have to strop the wapi with the pasted side as it did not feel as sharp as I like.

 

Friday's shave

Omega Silvertip brush
Parker 22R version 2 with Sharp 3rd day
Muhle Pinsel Ocean shaving soap (from guess who!)
Keri moisturiziong lotion
Pino Silvestre eau de toilette

I did a total of 3 passes--2 with the grain, and 1 against, and I turned out very smooth, but I gave myself a very small nick on the mustache area. Nothing serious, but it shows I still have a bit to learn from Master Jeff!

Somehow, I've avoided trying the Trumper sandalwood hard soap, but I ordered a bowl last week about the same time I sent my extra puck of Floris No. 89 soap back to London's for credit (I kept the F89 soap/bowl for now...). I was pleasantly surprised by the mellow scent of the Trumper sandalwood and the lather was exceptional. Trumper's non-tallow hard soaps continue to impress.

After 2 days of no shaving my beard started to itch but before I could shave I had to pimp my Shave Den today and replace a few things its not 100% finished but its starting to look nice .

This stuff is illegal it cant be legal to give someone that much Pain !
This stuff is for the serious Menthol head users like Crackstar or Baloosh
this is not meant for the beginner this is is super Awesome Freezing...
Dont even try it if you dont know what COLDEST means..

Just WOW this is serious chills all over the place WARNING : you will feel the pain even 10m later I had to start washing it off during the time it Hit me or ice pickles would have stopped me from going anywhere this stuff would be a super hit in Dubai def. it really cools you down well done on the a/s aswell im sure I can even use stuff of it to mix it further with With hazel to dillute it a bit or to make other a/s a bit mentholated. again not for beginners if your a noob start with Willams menthol or Proraso Green , Proraso Green is like HOT compared to this...
