    Love hearing your description of your shave. Beautiful razor!

    Brush: 23mm Shavemac Silvertip Badger
    Creme/Überlather: Al Raz Da Bomb Custom Shave Creme (scent: cloves + orange + a hint of cinnamon, formulation: dense)
    Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel
    Post-shave: Trumper's Sandalwood Skin Food
    Cologne: Sparks, Claiborne
    Facial Moisturizer: Trumper's Facial Moisturizer
    Result: Second time with Da Bomb today. The lather was even better than yesterday. I have not experimented by mixing it with any other combination(s) of soap/glycerin yet, but will soon - once I am certain I got the hang of this formulation, which I feel is very close. However, I am not sure if I will see an improvement in quality/density of überlather...this thing is as dense and moist as I have seen in "überland", so far. As far as the shave, my Novelty is one of my first and favorite spikes. This thing is like the "Genie in a bottle" who willingly grants his master's every morning wish - "Whiskers be gone"...and "Poof", just that simple. The shadowy and pesky growth magically disappears and makes way to a smooth and refreshed skin. And so my friends and fellow shavers, as every other cycle in life, this battle of wills will once again come to bear fruit tomorrow. Stay tuned as the saga continues. Same bat time, same bat channel.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Default Saturday morning

    Pre: Shower
    Razor: Revisor and Merkur 26c (for head)
    Brush: Ikon 24 mm silvertip
    Soap/Cream: Omega/Top Secret
    Post: Prosraso
    AS: Alcolado Glacial
    Result: Mr Clean
    Tons of super lather today. I did some laps on balsa and then a lot of laps on two different leather strops and the Revisor showed her best result so far. Actually I should send her off for honing, but I like her so much that I don´t want to send her away, lol. Have a good day today All! Only free day this week and a lazy shave it was
