Soap Stirling Hipster
Brush Yaqi 24mm Arctic Sky Deep Blue
Razor RR GC.84 SB
Blade Wetell Super Stainless 1st
Post & Aftershaves Alum + Stirling Witchhazel MitA + Hyaluronic + Reuzel Wood & Spice
Beautiful lather from the soap! Very pleasant scent, thickly creamy, and super slick too!
Shave with razor paired with this long-ignored blade was terrific! I remember during initial use the performance was very good and now double confirmed. It was a very smooth, comfortable, and enjoyable 3passes + a pick-up for a mostly bbs finish without any issues. Especially comfortable was the atg on the chin & upper lips area. Aftershaves were awesome!

Ok, what's in the bottle???

I love vintage decanters like this! Awesome bottle and I love the Bostonian/New Improved!

Sorry, that would be Osage Rub!
Yeah I moved all my plastic classic's to these bitter decanters just because.
I know most won't change scent but the Lilac Vegetal definitely did!

Good afternoon all.

Late post today. Had court. Finally put this probate mess to bed today!! Over two years it took to get it all taken care of. I'll say it once more, "Do your family and loved ones a favor and get a will made. Don't leave it to the courts. It's nothing but a headache.

Great shave today. First use of the Murphy and McNeil soap and I loved it! Scent strength and performance reminds me of Grooming Dept. soaps. Great scent too! "Barbershop De Los Muertos" is an homage to Amouage XXV for Men according to the website. If that's so, I am going to have to score some of that juice! Love it!.

Finished with a splash of Boosters "Polar Ice". No cologne due to court.

Hope you're having a great day!

Soap Stirling Orange Chill
Brush Yaqi 26mm Orange Black
Razor Yaqi AC Brass
Blade Shick Proline P-30 (US) 4th
Post & Aftershaves Alum + Stirling Witchhazel Orange Chill + Hyaluronic + TGS Orange Empire
Superb soap qualities! Very enjoyable scent and a rich creamy slick lather!!
Shave with razor paired with this blade is getting better compare to the initial 2 shaves. Smoother, more comfortable, and surprisingly more efficient! 3passes without any issues for a mostly bbs finish. Aftershaves were awesome! Luckily I packed sufficient shave gears for this work trip...a supposedly 6 days trip now becomes 14++days. Nothing like some good shaves to chase the blues away...
