SOS: July 2025

I WANTED to like that particular Chiseled Face, but after a while I just couldn't become "one" with the scent combination.

 

Here's The Tuesday(29)Plan:

prep-Nivea 4 Men Bodywash(in shower)
lather-The Wet Shaveing Store(El Azulado*)
brush-Razorock 400 Plissoft Synthetic
razor-Gillette Sensor Deuce Pivot DisposeABLE
A.S.-Aqua Velva Clasic

 

Thiers-Issard 7/8
Yaqi Brush
Vitos Pre/Post Shave
Castle Forbes Lime Shaving Cream
Thayers Rose Petal Witch Hazel
Vanicream Moisturizing Cream

 

Tobacconist is a great scent for those who like the smell of a tobacco shop. It is a dry scent, not of smoking.
Prep: cold water
Soap: House of Mammoth Tobacconist
Brush: Lutin Chubby Lightning
Razor: Rockwell 6S 6
Blade: Persona Lab Blue
AS: House of Mammoth Tobacconist balm

SOTD: 07/28/2025

Razor: Tatara Muramasa Titanium
Blade: Tatara Stainless, 1st use
Brush: Tatara Muramasa Badger Badger
Bowl: Tatara White Bowl Bowl
Preshave: Hwayeon Soap Co. Shaving Gel Gel
Soap: Los Jabones De Joserra Acid Vanilla Cream
Aftershave: Los Jabones De Joserra Acid Vanilla Aftershave
Additional Care: Osma Alum
Additional Care: Thayers Facial Toner: Rose Petal

To start the week I went with Tatara themed shave along with a new scent that just arrived from Spain - Los Jabones De Joserra - Acid Vanilla.

I went for my third shave with the Muramasa and this razor just gets better and better. This was my first go with a Tatara blade. I had figured since I fell in love with their razors I might as well try their blades. I was not disappointed! It paired perfectly with the Muramasa! Even better than the Wizamet for me! Both Tatara razor and blade sliced through three days growth as if it wasn’t there! And I also used my new Tatara Muramasa Adjustable Brush with the Semogue knot. I purchased all three interchangeable knots. Today I used the badger and it was as awesome as one would expect from these two companies. Being able to adjust the loft is incredibly useful.

As for Los Jabones De Joserra what can I say. Performance is always top notch! Super slick and bursting with larger! They really leave your skin feeling fantastically soft. And the scent of Acid Vanilla is amazing! The sweetness of raspberry is met with a sharp lime rounded out with a soft vanilla. Mmmmmmmm……so good!

What an amazing shave! Hope yours is just as awesome!

Greetings,

A relaxing early morning face & head shave.

Everything in my very eclectic shave set up this morning worked together superbly.

A wonderful shave from my 1970's Gillette Tech. Gillette got it so right with their vintage DE razors.

The Erasmic Soap Bowl & Fine synthetic brush both gave an admirably lathering performance this morning providing me with slick protective lather in a short space of time. Leaving a wonderful post shave feel.

Another close comfortable acceptable face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of P&G Old Spice Original ASL.

My face & precious swede are feeling smooth and smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

The Tabac Shave Soap was applied with the Burma Shave Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Supply SE MAX razor and a Supply Black Label Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
