Avon Sterling Six Leather After Shave

The Fatip Lo Storto gives a mild shave and pairs well with the Shark Platinum blade. Maggard Platinum soap makes an excellent lather and the Tobacco & Leather scent smells very good. The Avon Sterling Six Leather is an old one. The car has almost a full tank. I picked it up in a thrift store still in the box for either $6 or $8. It was an even number.
Have a great shave everyone and be safe

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

A fantastic "Lime-a-Licious" shave this morning! Returned to Stirling Soap Co. and their excellent "Lime" shave soap. Fantastic single-note scent with a thick and slick lather built with the WWBW badger brush for three passes with the Rockwell 6S and I finished with alum, followed by Thayers unscented witch hazel, vintage Shulton Old Spice "Fresh Lime" aftershave lotion, CBL Premium Barber Powder and Clubman "Lime Sec" EdC.

BBS bliss!!

Hope you have a great day.

Tuesday morning:

Lukewarm shower
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/7 O’Clock day 4
B&M Spice SS
Stirling Spice ASB
Stirling Spice Cologne

Now this is what I call heavenly pleasure - the magnificent Shulton Old Spice recreated by two master artisans. Will’s soap is a TREASURE - the lather buried my cute little face, the slickness gave me amazing blade glide, and the post-shave feeling was so comfortable. Rod’s Stirling Spice balm like all his balms is a godsend for sensitive skin, and the scent is bang on Shulton Old Spice. Finally the Stirling Spice cologne delivered that wonderful scent that has great longevity. Three passes gave me a super duper BBS shave that I enjoyed immensely. The cut that I got on Sunday is completely healed!

Wishing you all a nice day - be well and stay safe!

For today’s “Try It Tuesday” (I know, not a thing) I’m dipping my toe into the world of Durham Duplex razors with this late 40s(?) Durham Dorset and a pair of modified Feather Artist Club Pro blades.

​

Cheers!

An absolutely marvelous shave this afternoon. MdC lathers so easily and makes heaps of it. 2 days of growth mowed back with the Timeless Aluminum Slant and a 3rd use Voskhod. It was like a hot knife through butter. BBS finish.

Unfortunately, I dropped my alum block and a piece broke off. However, it is still very usable.
