    A simply great shave which was so enjoyable. The Gin+Tonic on the Rocks soap provided tons of lather, the lovely scent was so refreshing, and the menthol gave me a fabulous cooling effect. The Glacial Lemon Chill balm and witch hazel literally froze me out!

    Have a super day!

    A Stirling SEptember

    Blade: GEM stainless
    Razor: GEM 1912
    Brush: Jayaruh #60 synthetic
    Lather: Stirling Pharoah's Dreamsicle
    Post: Witch hazel, Stirling Pharoah's Dreamsicle aftershave
    WTG, touch-up

    Pretty smooth shave but a couple of tiny weepers and some redness along the jawline. Nothing too bad but certainly not as satisfactory as most other shaves. Great lather from Stirling as usual.

    Have a nice day!

    Schick J1 razor
    Personna blade
    RazoRock Plissoft brush
    Taconic Eucalyptus Mint SC
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Pinaud Citrus Musk cologne

    That's the end of my tub of Taconic & am kinda sad about that. For me, it's a top tier cream and worked very well indeed. I've got lots of stuff in inventory so not sure I'll order any more right now but, as I said, it's great stuff. Anyway, my face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.

    SOTD: My first shave with this newly-honed 7/8" Sheffield razor from William Greaves & Sons. This was a Goodwill store pickup in pretty sad shape. New black horn scales, brass & bone wedge, brass hardware & blade restoration. Soap Commander 'Devotion' soap and matching aftershave balm, Stirling 'Kong' synthetic. Three super-smooth passes. A keeper. Have a great Hump Day, gents!

    Razorock Slab (Rockwell handle), Tian Li with one shim. Not as comfortable as say the Rockwell or V3A) but quite efficient, head shave easy BBS in two.[​IMG]

    Rockwell, Slab, V3A. The other razors support the blade closer to its edge.

    I haven't seen this razor before. It's like a more aggressive looking Futur with sporty lines.

    Hello, old friend
    I hadn't used Stirling soap in a few years, this was my first try of their mutton tallow lanolin formula, and I gotta say it measures up well with other top artisans. It is also a better value than most, since the tub is nearly 6oz.
    I also recently traded for CL YRP and I really like the scent - I wasn't sure what yuzu is, but it does smell good and combined nicely with the other scents. Now I smell warm rose more, and the patchouli certainly does not dominate.
