Razor: Feather Popular DE
Blade: Feather
Cream: Musgo Real
Brush: D.R. Harris Best Badger
Post: Cold water rinse followed by some Musgo Real After Shave Balm

I hope everything turns out okay with your mom!

 

Thursday:

Omega Wooden Handle
Super Speed/new Voskhod
Solo Menthol SC
Keri unscented moisturizer
Eveline Aloe Vera AS Gel
Dolce & Gabbana EDT

I doubt that even a barber would be able to shave me as close and smooth as I am right now - my Super Speed takes such great care of me. The Solo Menthol cream gives tons of beautiful lather, it smells wonderful, and although the menthol effect is very light, it's still there. :biggrin:

Pre-shave soap: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
Razor: Merkur Futur
Blade: Astra Superior Platinum
Brush: EJ Best Badger
Soap/Cream: Ingram Cream
A/S: Dickinson's Witch Hazel, Diplomat Splash

Another great shave this morning! Although yesterday's daytime outdoor temperature reached 89.6 degrees F on our thermometer, there is now a touch of fall in the air--cooler nights, heavy dews, and foggy mornings. Such phenomena have me thinking about warm shaving lather and balms, although I'm in no hurry for summer to end.

 

Happy Thursday From Florida!

Hot Shower
RAB Scuttle
Chubbz II
Klar Kabinett
Star 3-Piece
Voskhod (1)
Cold Water Rag
Skin Bracer Blue

4 Passes = DFS++!

I am not a fan of the Skin Bracer Green, but the Blue is a completely different animal. The Blue is the closest thing that I have ever smelled that comes close to the scent of Speick.

Have a great day Ya'll!

 

I hope all will be better with your mother - may God give her good health.

Shave Rating: 5 Blades

Still not a big fan of face lathering or sticks, but I really like the scent of the Irisch Moos.

The blade surprised me. It's date coded E-4. I was expecting a rough shave, but it was very nice. Great shave.

Dad had the Wild Country stashed in the medicine cabinet and I had to give it a go. Very similar to Clubman. Love it! Brings back many fond memories.

People need to stop posting about musgo real shaving cream... I might have to spend the money and get me one
