awesome shave and pic Gus..

 

Thank you, brother.....

 

Here it is for Tuesday(12th):

prep-Nivea 4 Men Bodywash(Energy)in shower
shave-I don't know*
brush-Stoylin "li'l brudder"
razor-Gillette Sensor Deuce Pivot + DisposeABLE
A.S.-Stoylin Unscented Splash


*-I know the company at least-Phoenix AA. This was PIFed to be, and I believe it's one of their Planet scents. It smells real nice. . Not much came, but hopefully by swirling the brush around some, I can get in a few shaves.

 

Today
Hot water wash after shower
Rockwell synthetic
Stirring Island Man
Rockwell S6 (6)
Persona lab (1)
Iced Florida water superior 70 bay rum mix/atomized application
Today’s shave was nice. I’ve been getting terrific shave from a70’s super speed, so the Rockwell felt like a3/8 ratchet. It performed like a nice tool as well. Even a bit of a weeper on my neck. The island man felt right at home with the homemade cocktail of Florida water and bay rum (iced). I liberally applied the mix and feel cool and fragrant. EwwWee I feel pretty. Could use a haircut though.
Hope y’all did a as well, or better.

The Merry Mixed Up Month of May!

May 11

Razor - 1918 Gillette Old Type
Blade -
Soap - Stirling Iced Coffee
Brush - Stirling Two Band Synthetic
Post - Alum

Another shave with the 1918 Gillette and Sputnik. Still plenty smooth and definitely sharp enough to do the job. As I mentioned yesterday, Sputnik is a really nice teflon coated blade that tries to be a Voskhod. It definitely works for three shaves. I do have a tuck of old time Sputnik's but haven't opened them. Maybe I should do that just to try one. Might be interesting. I'll think about it.

For the lather it was Stirling Iced Coffee for MENTHOL MONDAY!! Haven't done one of those in awhile. I just used the nice Stirling synthetic brush. No need to get fancy. That Iced Coffee scent and Stirling lather is all the fancy you need!

Have a Tremendous Tuesday tomorrow!

Thank you very much
