SOS March 2020

fine shave and pic..

 

Thank you so much! I really love this stuff and really enjoy using it . The only thing I am not happy about is the brush. Eventhough it is a badger, this type really has got zero backbone and is terrible to use. So this badger will be tossed away and I'll continue with my favorite brush (Omega EVO synthetic - you'll spot it in my other postings)
Have a great day!

 

Thanks!

Thursday morning:

Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/Shark day 6
Gilly’s Lush Life SS
Prep ASB
Aqua Velva Sport AS Splash

Talk about explosive lather - after 25 swirls I was buried in rich, thick, slick lather which has such a delightful scent of lime, bergamot, and some other notes which I find difficult to describe and this soap has an added bonus which is a very nice menthol sensation. The Prep as always gave me the postshave care I needed, and the Aqua Velva Sport went on with little to no sting and its cooling effect felt great, not to mention how nice it smells. Three passes gave me a cracking good BBS shave!

Stick Schick
Schick Proline
CWR
Aqua Velva Musk AS

The Cremo Shave Stick face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #387 brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Stick Schick with a Schick Proline blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Yep...same as yesterday and it'll be the same for Friday and Saturday as well.

Isn't there a "shave of the week" thread somewhere. There seems to be a benefit with sticking with a set-up that works well.

 

Throwback Thursday
Spring training always awakens the baseball fan in me. Baseball also reminds me of my Dad, who shared his love of the game. This glove is the one he got as a child in the 1940s and used to play catch with me for the rest of his life.

Have a great day all!

 

Great gear, almost had to but my sunglasses on because of the glare off the razor.

 

Interesting badger brush, slim chance of getting soap on the hands.

 

Nice gear, hope you are feeling better after your ordeal for a week.
