National Bison Day

Rooney Emillion 2 Porcelain-Jade Finest (24/55)
Soap Commander Love (True Rose) shaving soap
Wolfman WR2-SB/WRH3
Personna 74 Tungsten (3)
Ginger's Garden Rose Petals aftershave

It's a wet, gray day here, but I had a great shave. The Soap Commander made very good lather with a wonderful fresh rose scent. It left my skin feeling a little dry, but the aftershave took care of that.

Saturday Night Shave was Ethos Lavender this sample was provided by very kind Gentelman from DFS Extraprotein.

Soap is scent is very clean, mild lavender there is little licorise among I could smell unless it’s just me lol, but not overbearing tho.

There aren’t perfumes or powders coming into my nose just very clean natural lavender scent. Extremely nice in my opinion.

Lathers super fast and easy and within few drops of water 18 swirls that’s it nice thick lather like yogurt.

Razor if Choice I don’t use often is:

Karve SS
Blade Tatra Platinum
Post Shave - Lucky Tiger
Afterhave - Fine Fresh Vetiver
Zingary Man Balm
Brush WW Whiskers 25mm Black Wolf
Shaving Bowl Captains Choice

Have a Great Weekend Stay Safe Everyone

Alan H. Great stuff, it looks like you have dipped into the Fresh Vetiver a bit. Assuming it is a good choice perhaps beyond green vetiver?

7th November 2020 AEST

Brush: TF Customs Clear/Black/Yellow 26mm 2 Band Finest
Razor: Rocca V4 R96
Blade: Astra SS Blue (3)
Soap: RR Moroccan Secret
Bowl: Rover from Artisan Arcade
Pre: Shower
Post: Nivea 2 phase A/S lotion & Sensitive Post Shave Balm
WTG, ATG + Touchups = DFS

A much better shave limiting the number of passes as the blade felt smoother and no irritation but far off the efficiency I expect from the Rocca.

8th November 2020 AEST

Brush: TF Customs Clear/Black/Yellow 26mm 2 Band Finest
Razor: Rocca V4 R95
Blade: Wizamet SI (1)
Soap: RR Moroccan Secret
Bowl: Rover from Artisan Arcade
Pre: Shower
Post: Alum block // Nivea 2 phase A/S lotion & Sensitive Post Shave Balm
WTG, XTG, ATG = BBS

I was suspicious that the R95 would feel slippery when wet but man was I wrong as this thing is super grippy! The shave was buttery smooth, very close and no irritation, barring the accidental nick on the adams apple. Its safe to say I have cured my RAD and look forward to adding some more Wizamets as this combo is hard to beat!!!

Wishing you Good Health & Happy Shaves!
