Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. Returned to Abbate Y La Mantia and their "Don José" shave soap. Nice cool coconut & banana scent with cooling menthol and great lather built with the Paladin "Chief" 2-band badger brush in "Satin Cobalt" for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '58 Gillette Super Speed, and I finished with Clubman Reserve "Tequila Tease" after shave splash & Creed "Virgin Island Water" EdP.

Hope you've had a great day. :)

Shave of the Week Starting 5/20/2024

Parker 78r razor
Super-Max Blue Diamond blade
Burma Shave boar brush
Seaforth! Heather SS
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Seaforth! Heather Toner

A really nice/pleasant shave to start the week with. The Parker/Super-Max combo is superb for me. The Seaforth! SS is very nice also, easy to lather/good protection/nice scent. The Burma Shave brush is quite nicely broken in and does just fine. My face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Outstanding shave this morning! Returned to Stirling Soap Co. and their "West Indies Lime" shave soap. Great citrus scent with a hint of vetiver and super thick and slick lather built with the Paladin "Falstaff" 2-band badger brush in "Juma Mamba". Two passes (plus touch-up) with the Timeless TRBR38, and I finished with vintage Avon "Island Lime" after shave lotion & "Brisk Spice" EdC.

Hope you have a great day. :)
