Hi Friends,

Here my second vacation shave (20.09.2023)


Razor: Hone SS // Blade: Gillette Platinum (2) // Soap: MSC Grapefruit Zest // Brush: Shavemac Synthetic // Aftershave: Ralon

Good shave. First shave with my Hone Razor. Not quite sure if i will keep it, the first shave was completely BBS in 2,5 passes and it shaves very smooth and gentle, but with it´s 160 grams it is a heavy beast. Build like a tank. If this razor slips out of your hand and drops to the floor…my oh my…i don ´t want to think about it…

The soap smells heavenly.As if you cut into a fresh, ripe Grapefruit. A very natural scent which definitely makes good mood. Scentwise Master Soap Creations is fantastic. With no effort you can produce tons of great, cushiony lather. Last but not least the Aftershave. It smells more intense than the Swiss Pitralon, more „leathery“ and a bit more „medicinal“, but i like this contrast with the fresh, fruity notes of the soap. Skincare is top notch here.

Here some more impressions of our vacation:





Have a great time, enjoy your shaves and stay safe and healthy.

Greetings
Thorsten

Wednesday morning:

Capra soap as a facial wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Canadian Tech/Astra Green day 3
Bundubeard Rooi Afrikaner SS
Fino ASB
Booster Iced Lime AS Splash
Aramis EdT

This Canadian Tech is such a great razor - as mild as it is the performance is fabulous especially with an Astra Green blade. It’s been too long since I’ve last used one of my dear brother Jaco’s soaps - his Rooi Afrikaner is tallow based, it has a very nice herbal scent with soapy notes, the lather is such a pleasure to work up, the slickness is wonderful, and it’s so gentle on my skin. The Fino balm is also from South Africa and it’s unscented, it gives great soothing with plenty of moisturizing, the Iced Lime aftershave is a Canadian barbershop classic, and do I ever LOVE the Aramis fragrance - it’s always been a top favourite of mine. Another three pass work of art - what a great BBS shave this was!

See y’all tomorrow same time, same station!
