Pre-shave Soap: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
Razor: Edwin Jagger DE87
Blade: Astra Superior Platinum
Brush: Vulfix 2234 Super
Cream: Cyril Salter Indian Sandalwood
A/S: Dickinson's Witch Hazel, Pashana American Bay Rum Splash

 

Well, I was about to do that and then thought about giving it a shot. I am feeling enough burn on my 'stash, chin, and even my left cheek that is telling me I should maybe just deep six the stuff (blades and soap).

PIFing it seems cruel or else I'd think about that. "Here, this stuff hurts me, I'd like you to have it." :happy102

I can PIF the soap surely, but those blades.....

 

Is there someone that you're really Pi.... Off at? (Never mind, I feel really bad for even thinking about that!) :happy102

Razor: Merkur Futur
Blade: Schick Plus Platinum
Brush: Simfix Grosvenor
Pre-Shave: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
Soap: Portman Square Shave Stick
A/S: Meehan Bay Rhum

I received a shipment of Portman Square shave sticks from Krissy yesterday afternoon and took one for a test spin this morning. The stick produced excellent lather and I enjoyed an outstanding shave. The scent though is very different from the Notting Hill cream soap so we will go back to the drawing board for the scent. The Meehan Bay Rhum continues to be a favorite.

We're expecing a foot of snow and subzero temps this week. I'm going to ride my bicycle to work...topless. It'll save gas, and I have not been on my bicycle for a few months.
Seriously, I admire your dedication to mastering what probably can be mastered. Good luck!

 

There is a probably better 'Iced Lime' AS out there Mark.
The Lime is there but it lacks in the Ice department.
I have mixed Osage Rub in this bottle to step it up a notch.
I like the Booster products but I wont purchase this one again.

I had a puck of Conk Amber awhile back, great scent, but nothing else, and prolly the worst shave I have ever had, and said that much in my shave post. I would not buy another puck of Conk anything based on the experience with that puck.

 

Sunday night shave:
Face: Super Speed w/ Astra SP
Head: Fat Handle Tech w/ Dorco 301
C&E BBB
MWF
Alum
TSD Neroli Milk

Great BBS shave with a little more moisture than normal for the drier than normal air we're experiencing.
