Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Skipped shaving yesterday so today's shave was extra nice! Super hot and muggy morning here today so I went for a Menthol Monday. Returned to Furbo and their excellent "Blu" shave soap. Great old school Blue Floid scent with exceptional lather built with the Simpson "Chubby" 1 best badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the Gillette Super Speed and I finished with RazoRock "Blue Barbershop" aftershave splash (closest scent to original "Blue Floid I've found) & Acqua di Parma "Essenza" EdC.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Furbo "Blu" Shave Soap / Simpson "Chubby" 1 Best Badger Brush / Gillette Super Speed
Wizamet / Alum / RazoRock "Blue Barbershop" Aftershave Splash / AdP "Essenza" EdC

Shave of the Week Starting 6/24/2024

Star 100 razor
Suneko blade
Stirling Synthetic brush
VDH Fresh Eucalyptus SS
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Various A/S

Decided to stick with the VDH shave soap again this week. It seems to be getting easier to lather and providing a better lather as well. The Star/Suneko is really nice, smooth/comfortable/effective and I think the Star razor is severely underrated. My face is happy. Now ge enjoy your day folks.
