Around the World in 80 Shaves: Iberia!



Today, the Spaniards and Portuguese make war on whiskers:

Filarmonica Sub Cero 8/8, stropped 20/60
Musgo Real, whipped with badger
Had to default to Clubman, as I don't have any a/s from the peninsula.

Because this Filarmonica is such an incredible shaver, and the Musgo was so rich and silky, I indulged in three full passes this morning. Closest, smoothest shave I've ever had!

Someone with a Mastro Livi want to take us to Italy next?

Custom made 8/8 razor by Denis member of a French forum "leretourducoupechou.com", strops from the Wookie of another french forum "coupechouclub.com", a french shaving cream Roger et Gallet, this house produce shaving cream for allmost 140 years !

Only one regrets the razor is made in inox, and the temper is quite hard, it's a pain to hone, and he's a bit agressiv...

Angel.

Warm Shower, Stephan's, Warm Oil
Razorock Caprician Lemon Shave Soap
New Forest Badger
Wade and Butcher Celebrated, 5/8, Barber's Notch
Pinaud Clubman
Vaseline for men

Quick two pass shave with my first vintage razor. The Razorock lathered really well on my face. The WB shaves so nicely.

Preshave: Hot shower
Soap: SRD Lavender
Brush: Silvertip Badger
Razor: 6/8 Wade and Butcher
Aftershave: Pinaud Clubman

This was the first shave for me with this razor after a rescale and heavy sanding and polishing. I now know the feeling of shaving with a razor that is over 100 years old and have to say it was a rush. A full three pass shave, which I rarely do, and very little irritation. A great way to end the night.

It's so reassuring to see that I am not the only one that's a fan of the R&B line, although I am crazy about the after shave balm more than anything else.
