SoS: September 28, 2015 - October 4, 2015

Leader-how can a name be better than THAT????

 

I forgot the blade- store brand stainless (2)
I really like the Nivea balm not much scent just clean feeling and smelling

 

optical illusion
just the normal Florida water bottle

 

Can you believe it's that time of the week again? We start a new SOTD thread tomorrow HERE
As I've done in past weeks I'll close this thread for a very short time later tonight or early tomorrow morning.
Happy shaving!
Kerry

 

I look forward to another great week of shaving for all of us.

 

well, it will last you a looooong time, I'm sure.

 

A decision has been made(by this author)! I'm going to work Aqua Velva Musk into my winter rotation. If I like it(and I've used it before), I just may place Stephan Bay Rum on waivers(good as it is). And of course, there's still Rise. AV Musk would save me on shipping, as I would simply put it in my car and ship it for 2 minutes to my apt....price? ZIP.

 

Nice pic and Bold move Celestino. Did they have to set up a road block while you staged this shot?

 

Late Sunday SOTD


Gillette Bostonian OC razor
Personna Blue blade
Simpson Berkeley badger brush
MWF shaving soap
Lilac Vegetal

 

I messed up when I was trimming my beard, so I shaved most of it off.

Prep: hot shower, Nivea Face Wash.
Brush: Turkish #6.
Razor: Schick Krona.
Blade: SuperMax Titanium.
Cream: Barbon.
Post: Barbon AS, Myrsol Emulsion.

Well, like the opening line says; I messed up while trimming my beard. I left the mustache and goatee area, but I'm going to shave that off because I don't like how it looks on me. It was a pretty decent shave, two pass BBS with minimal irritation. I'm still having to re-learn all the skills I neglected while growing a beard.

 

I think Santa is bringing me one of those! Glad you like yours!

 

Nice picture Guy.

 

Welcome back Thorsten!

 

Thanks Mark!
