    Hi Friends,

    Wednesday Shave (06.09.2023)

    IMG_0296.jpeg
    Pre: PAA Cube // Razor: Tatara Masamune // Blade: Feather // Soap: Sudsy Soapery Pink Peppermint // Brush: RazoRock 400 // Aftershave: Sudsy Soapery Pink Peppermint

    Another great shave. The first time I’ve tested a Feather in this razor. It worked well, but nevertheless I am not a fan of Feather blades.

    Good 2,5 smooth and gentle passes. Soap and AS are wonderful.

    A 9 out of 10

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

    Greetings
    Thorsten

    Wednesday morning:

    L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Junjie/Astra Green day 3
    Captain Nemo Blend 47 SS
    Prep ASB
    Captain Nemo Blend 47 AS Toner
    Floid Vigoroso AS Splash

    Not quite a Grand Freeze but still colder than cold enough to satisfy my menthol needs. My man Abir’s Blend 47 soap and aftershave have a very nice eucalyptus/minty scent that’s quite similar to Proraso Green, the soap’s vegan formula gives it great lather with plenty of slickness, the menthol sensation really kicks in during the second and third passes, not to mention how skin friendly it is. The Prep is so cooling, soothing, and moisturizing, the Blend 47 aftershave toner is also a great relief for razor burn or irritation, it smells much nicer than Proraso Green and it has much more menthol in it. Finally the Floid Vigoroso aftershave splash’s beautiful old school barbershop scent along with its strong menthol wallop and I’m good to go. Three passes gave me a brilliant BBS shave that was such a pleasure!

    Enjoy your day and your shaves - be well and stay safe![​IMG]

    Williams Wednesday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Williams Mug Shaving Soap
    Ever-Ready C-40 Boar
    No Notch Gillette Super Speed
    Gillette Silver Blue
    CWR
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Pinaud Citrus Musk EDC

    The Williams Mug Shaving Soap lathered well with Ever-Ready C-40 Boar brush. Two passes and touch ups with the No Notch Gillette Super Speed Razor and a Gillette Silver Blue Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and then Pinaud Citrus Musk EDC. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
