SoS: December 5, 2016 - December 11, 2016

Gorgeous setup!

 

Sunday's Planned


Dove Men Face Wash
Arko Shaving Stick
Jayaruh #142
Gillette President Y1
Gillette Twinjector
Personna Super
Chinese Schick
CWR, Asma Alum Block
T.N. Dickinson's WH
Pinaud Clubman

The Arko Shaving Stick face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #142 black badger brush. I did two passes alternating between the Gillette President with the Personna Super blade and the Gillette Twinjector with the Chinese Schick blade. On the first pass, I used the injector on the left side and the DE on the right. I switched sides for the second pass. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with T.N. Dickinson's WH and then Pinaud Clubman After Shave. It was an excellent shave all around. I am very happy with the Twinjector's performance, too. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Happy Sunday, and Merry Christmas!

 

What a nice photo!

 

Thank you, Jeff!

 

Flawless beard shave with the Shake Sharp (Stacked Permasharps) , top notch head shave with the Hawk (Schick Proline). For me the Hawk is a bit too aggressive for a full head shave, I prefer it for a last pass/clean ups, but it sure gets the job done.

Great shave. The 7 o'clock couldn't go to 12 shaves.. but that's ok.

 

SOTD December 10, 2016

Blade: Chinese Schick
Razor: Schick G1 injector
Brush: Semogue 1520 boar
Lather: Stirling Ozark Mountain
Post: Witch hazel splash, Stirling Ozark Mountain aftershave, Nivea sensitive balm
WTG, touch-up

Nice shave again with Ozark Mountain. My wife walked a few minutes after applying the aftershave and said "You smell like Christmas!". She's a tough judge of my aftershave choices and scents in general, so I'll take it! It's a nice holiday scent and performance is top notch.

Have a good Sunday!

 

Razor: Gillette Red Tip A-4 1955
Blade: Pol Silver Super Iridium (3)
Brush: Maggard 22 mm Synthetic (Secret Santa)
Soap: Reef Point Soaps Dragon's Blood
Aftershave: Myrsol Blue

First time using this soap and I must say I am very impressed. I whipped up a great lather to the point that I squeezed out the soap left in the brush and had another pass XTG in the opposite direction. Ended up with a BBS after chasing the baby all over the bathroom.

 

I say he is a keeper. Well played .

 

Nice setup choices today. +1 with Reef Point Soaps and the Dragons Blood is my top choice from RPS.

Excellent picture and setup of outstanding gear Doc. The Envy White know works very well in that handle.

 

Thanks Guy. I've only tried only one other RPS (Tranquility) I liked it also.

 

Many thanks Marine!
