Unconditionally Superb Shave
I decided to go with US and my Silver Surfer brush for my first post Tabac shave and I am delighted with the results. I used the salve as a preshave butter and the toner to finish up. L&L has one of the top performing lathers and today was no exception. The brush was noticably softer than the boar I've been using and it loaded faster. I think I'll skip the boar on any LE soaps in order to make them last longer.

Good Morning everyone, here's today's SOTD-

Vintage Gillette Blue Blade.

The Software-

Trumpers GFT shave cream.
Safari for Men cologne.

Pinaud Clubman Special Reserve a.s. Splash.

I had a fantastic shave this morning. This old Aristocrat is one of my most favored razors that not only looks great, but shaves great too. I always get great results wit it. And the GFT is one of my favorite shave creams too. It was a win/win Shave! I love the performance and scent of the GFT so much, that I didn't want to use the other products and throw the aroma off. I did use the cologne, however, since they go together so well. Thanks for checking out this post. Have a great day all!

Thank you Doug. I couldn't help myself. Of course it does not help to that I was watching NCAA Football and having a few beers at the same time.

 

No complaints about today's shave because it was a three pass BBS beauty. The Sharp Dressed Man's gorgeous scent, rich, slick, awesome lather were so enjoyable. The Derby blade in my Junjie did the job with no issues at all. I didn't use an aftershave today - just a little moisturizer.

Enjoy your day, guys!

Unforgivable aftershave balm by Sean John
As good as it gets for a Tobacco Tuesday. The wsp is showing a full moon, but teamed with the long omega knot, delivered yet another great lather. The floating head is awesome. Three passes for a great smooth comfy result. Finished with a Tobacco wash, then an unforgivable balm rub. Nice mix of aromas.
Hope y'all did as well, or better.

DC 4 life!!! I am anti Marvel!!! We finally disagree Steve - let the fight begin~ haha

 

Creepy!

One of my VIVID childhood memories! I am talking 1979-80 - I was in kindergarden and used to watch DR WHO On PBS - channel 2 in Massachussetts - there was a episode with a Hand that was alive and crawled around on its fingers! I awoke screaming in terror - Dr Who hand !! help help - I will never forget that knightmare and the horror!

I watch it now and it is ultra cheesy! but that was my favorite doctor who... your shave takes me back... nice job
