Top Notch Tabacstag
Just another optimal shave with Tabac. I think bay rum goes nicely with this soap, and B&M is no exception. My face is smooth and comfortable after der Futur did its job with an Astra SP installed.
I don't think Feather blades will ever be my favorites, but I know I can get a close shave with them, even at the price of a few weepers. I get fewer of those with other blades, and just as close a shave.
Prep: PAA Ice
Soap: Tabac!
Brush: HIS
Razor: der Futur
Blade: Astra SP (1)
AS: B&M Kyovu Bay Rum

 

SOTD November 24, 2015

Prep: Rusty Blade blend pre-shave oil
Razor/Blade: Gillette Canadian Heavy Tech / Astra SP
Brush/Soap: Semogue / Institut Karite
Aftershave: Witch Hazel/coconut oil
Mustache Wax: Badger

This is my morning to use my IK...and I think this is a very nice soap. Easy to lather and it has a faint baby powder scent. A real pleasure to use. Leaves my face feeling moisturized.

 

Tuesday:
hot shower
Shave Secret PSO
Gillette FatBoy (9) 2+ passes
Gillette Minora (2)
L'Occitane Cade soap in a mug
VDH Premium boar
Thayers unscented w/aloe
TOBS Eton College A/S

Just an average shave today. It's a busy week so far and I wasn't very focused this morning. After my whiskers grow back I'll try again.

 

6/8 Clauss
Green Mountain
homemade brush/shavemac silver tip finest

Very nice shave this morning. Have a good one.

 

SOTD for Nov 24th.............

First shave w/my Gillette Fat Handle Tech
Fresh Wilkinson Sword Blade
RazoRock XXX face lathered w/SOC Boar
Witch Hazel rinse & Nivea Cooling Balm finishing w/Fine Platinum A/S

2-paases w/touch for a near BBS shave. The Tech is a very mild shaver which I really enjoyed

 

Any more menthol than this and I think my face would have fallen off. The Glacial Obsidian soap felt like liquid nitrogen, and the Arctique aftershave increased that sensation ten fold. (I love it!) Another wonderful and smooth shave!

 

today's shave
hot water wash with nivea men's face wash and a washcloth
l'occitaine Plisson synthetic
Proraso red
Gillette red tip(b1)
Ladas(3)
Crusella&co Sandalo
today's shave was nice. the red has an earthy smell that's very nice. three passes with the red tip, close and comfy.
finished with Sandalo.
hope y'all did as well, or better.

RR Black Mamba
Feather#2
Druida Ebony Chubby
Sterling Glacial Obsidian
Alum, Dickinson’s +Menthol, Proraso Blue Balm
Krampert’s Frostbite Aftershave


Today’s shave was one of the coldest in recent memory. I worked the lather, slowly adding water with the Chubby. The burn of the Glacial Obsidian increased as I built the lather. My eyes watered through the first pass. Two passes plus clean up led to my usual, near BBS shave. Pass two at an adjusted shallow angle, removed the stubble from my trouble spots. The Black Mamba is my current DE Driver. It is smooth and efficient with a Feather bladde. Ended today’s shave with generous handful of Krampert's Frostbite. The cold goes on and on. I hope you all had a great shave today and are having a wonderful Tuesday.

 

Another great shot @Boojum1.
