Shave of the Week Starting 15 July 2024

Gillette Tech razor
Bic Astor blade
Maggard Synthetic brush
TSD 2X Iced Lemongrass SS
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
TSD 2X Iced Lemongrass A/S

My face is frozen! In a good way though. It's been about a year since I used this soap, guess that's part of the curse of having so much stuff. Anyway, a great shave was had. Now go enjoy your day folks.

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Outstanding shave this morning. Returned to ETHOS Grooming Essentials and Frank's excellent "Nuage De Citron" shave soap and splash. Lovely lemon / citrus scent with incredible lather built with the Simpson "Chubby" 1 Silvertip badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the Gillette Super Speed and I finished with the matching skin food splash & Acqua di Parma "Colonia" EdC.

Hope you have a great day. :)

SOTD - 7/16/2024

House of Mammoth Ausflug
Rich Man shaving Grenade with an UltraLUX knot
Rod George shave designs Stainless Steel Black Widow razor with a Kallory open comb head

From the House of Mammoth website:

Ausflug opens with a punchy citrus accord with lemongrass and grapefruit. It is dramatic and vibrant, with aldehydic accents.

The heart is beautifully green, with wormwood, rosemary, and chrysanthemum.

The drydown features cedar, tonka, patchouli, and oakmoss for a classic refined outdoorsy base.
