Pre Shave: Homemade
Brush: VDH Badger
Lather: Proraso Green

Believe it or not, with this cheap plastic razor, I got a really great shave, of course there were a lot of clean ups, and a little irritation, no weepers or blood spots. A good cold water "bath" took care of the irritation. A 2 pass, WTG/ATG and like said, a lot of clean ups. Surprisingly smooth everywhere except the neck and upper lip. Not sure I want to keep it. It just didn`t feel right. Probably PIF it. A somewhat Happy Camper, wishing great shave for all. God Bless.

Gillette After Shave Gel

Did three passes as this blade felt it's been in this razor a while. Despite the blade needing to be replaced, it still managed a good BBS shave.

 

I'll admit it, this setup makes me a bit jealous. Love it!

SOTD 11.6.2017

Head Shave Only:
Pre-shave: hot shower
Shave Cream + Soap: Barbasol Sensitive Skin travel size can + Scalpmaster Shaving Soap
http://theshaveden.com/forums/threa...el-can-experiment-sensitive-skin.57755/page-2
Brush: Cremo (by Vie-Long) horse hair
Razor: Schick E3
Blade: Schick (1)
Post-shave: Assured WH (from Dollar Tree), Nivea Men's Crème, Brut AS

This is Shave #21 for this travel size can of Barbasol. I combined it with Scalpmaster shaving soap which I got from Sally's Beauty Supply. This soap by itself is so-so at best, but with the help of Barbasol the combined lather was terrific! The witch hazel was the first time out. I saw it at Dollar Tree and it's quite nice. Not bad for $1 and it's a nice 6 oz bottle.

Have a great week, my friends!

 

Wednesday's planned shave:

Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed+Astra day 3
Stirling Black Ice SS
Gold Bond Moisturizer
Osage Rub AS Splash
Drakkar Noir EdT

A cold enough setup!
