SOTD: June 2026

Friday morning:

Cool shower
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/Super Platinum day 13
Godrej Menthol SC
Bundubeard Stoffel ASB
Viktor&Rolf Spice Bomb EdT

Oh boy today I had to really struggle because this Super Platinum blade was way down but I shouldn’t complain because even though my beard stubble is very tough I still had an amazing three pass BBS shave. Tomorrow morning it’ll be a brand new blade!

Wishing you all a great weekend - be well and stay safe!

Nice shave Akhi! I’m contemplating dipping my foot in the pool ….in the deep freeze shaving soap world!

Proraso Green is lightly mentholated. Also, Stirling has some that are their regular strength menthol as opposed to their Glacial. My first was a sample of Orange Chill.

Shabbat Shalom, Lantzman!

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Another fantastic shave this morning! Returned to Adopted Acres Soap Co. and their "Pineapple Under the Sea" suite of products. An incredible scent with a super thick and slick lather built with the Gypsy Wagon Soap synth for three passes with the Rockwell 6S and I finished with alum, followed by Thayers unscented witch hazel, the matching aftershave splash, CBL Premium Barber Powder & matching EdP.

BBS bliss!!

Hope you have a great day. :)

Todah rabah Akhi!

I’d say that she approves of about 75% of my aftershaves and fragrances!

Shabbat Shalom!

You are very lucky, Akhi. My wife barely approves of me shaving with the traditional wet shave, yet alone liking any AS or fragrance. She'd prefer if I went back to using the electric razor and nothing with a scent.

My wife approves of most. She let's me know what doesn't work. In that sense I credit her with helping to thin the herd. :)
Shabbat Shalom Akhi!
 
For me, a mild razor and Feather blades compliment each other very very well. I'd like to wish everyone a great day and a fantastic weekend!
