I had an exceptionally pleasant shave with my Gillette Bulldog this morning. I love the patina on it. And to me, the Gillette Bulldog has the best looking knurling of any razor I've seen.
As always Ariana Evans The Novelist performed flawlessly. The scent is exquisite too.

 

Hi Friends,

Here my Shave of the Day (04.12.2024)


Razor: Mühle Rocca // Blade: Polsilver Super Iridium // Soap: MWF // Brush: Shavemac // Aftershave: Witch Hazel - Stetson

A wonderful 2-pass have. Smooth and gentle as it could be.

The new MWF performed like a champ and as i lathered up i looked like Santa with it´s white beard

I feel refreshed and ready to face the day.

A 10 out of 10

Have a great time, enjoy your shaves and stay safe and healthy.

Greetings
Thorsten

 

Postshave was a real treat. Not really a difference between the old and new formula. So far, I absolutely love the new version

The Williams Mug Shaving Soap lathered well with the Turkish #6 Horse Hair Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette President razor and the Gillette Silver Blue Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Wednesday morning:

Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Bic day 7
De Vergulde Hand Extra Fris SS
Proraso Blue ASB
Max Disinfecting AS Splash

What a nice soap this Extra Fris from De Vergulde Hand is - a great scent which is aquatic and soapy, it lathers superbly, and it leaves a very comfortable postshave feeling. The Proraso Blue balm is so soothing, and the Max Disinfecting aftershave stings like hell for a second or two but then it feels wonderful - it smells awesome also. Another picture perfect three pass BBS shave that I enjoyed immensely!

Wishing you all a good day - be well and stay safe!
