Hot Shower / MR GLO face Soap / EJ Pre Shaving Cream / Muhle R41 / Astra SP / Vulfix 2236S Super Badger / TOBS Rose / Trumper Coral Skin Food / BRUT ALASKA Lotion / cologne Rose

So SWMBO just called the house (I work from home) and informs me that she got a sitter and that we're going out this evening. Thus, I had better be BBS and smell good. Love that woman! I would have loved to punt the shave until this afternoon but I don't have time. So here's how it just played out:



Prep: Hot Shower + Proraso Pre/Post
Scuttle: Dirty Biry 1.5
Brush: Thater SRP LE '11 (Fan)
Suds: Prep + Glycerin
Razor: Schulze 6/8
Post: Alum + Thayers WH w/Aloe
ASB: Prep
EdT: Armani Mania

Results: I saw the classic edge banner start popping up around the forum and me being week, ended up buying the NOS Schulze and the Prep products. Both defineatly delivered today. It was also so nice to NOT be using the Jack Black brush. The lather was wonderful! Only thing is that my son came home from day care this week and gave all of us his cold so I couldn't smell it. However based on the lathering capabilities I'm willing to assume the scent is more than acceptable at the least.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!

Friday

Razor: Dovo Best Quality 6/8
Brush: Omega boar
Soap: Institut Karite
Toner: witch hazel
A/S: Old Spice

Silky-smooth BBS in three passes + touch-ups. The Old Spice was the perfect finish for this dreary day.

Thanks. The picture says it all....

Prep-Hot Shower....Ahhhhhhh
Brush-Thater 2 band on loan
Cream-Cyril R Salter Sublime Citrus
Razor-C-MON Filarmonica 6/8 on loan from a friend
Thayers Lavender WH
St. Charles Shave Lavender AS
Proraso pre/post

First time to use the cream, a Filarmonica and a thater. This shave was incredible. The razor was smooth as silk and the Cyril cream is just superb! The thater brush is amazing as well. Walked away feeling most gratified.

Good shaving and God Bless!

PREP: Hot shower with Mr. GLO
RAZOR: Merkur 38
BLADE: Feather
BRUSH: Simpson chubby 2 band
CREAM: Fitjar " Sandalwood"
ASTRINGENT: Razorock Alum stick
ASB: Skinfood
EDT: Sample of Encre Noir
RESULTS:

I got a few creams that I had been wanting for awhile and the Fitjar is one of them. This cream is awesome. I felt like I loaded it perfect but I actually overloaded it ! I did 3 passes and had enough for 3 more easily. So a tiny bit goes a LONG way. Everything is here in this cream, the slickness the cushion, and the smell ( although it doesnt open up till u actually lather it. ) Also used the Alum stick today and it was a pleasant surprise.
GREAT SHAVES TODAY GUYS!!!!
