I love October in Vegas. The extreme heat is gone. Today was another gorgeous day in the high 80's. Butterflies by the hundreds. Last blooms of the year. Daylight is getting shorter,

A great shave with top notch products. What's not to love.

Maxi, how you liking that Nivea balm? It was all I used pre SR use. I always enjoyed it....even after rubbing it over my bleeding ingrown hairs

Prep: Hot shower
Brush: Neep 28 mm extra stuffed silvertip (what a brush, holds water like champ)
Razor: Bengall by Cadmann & sons
Soap: Penhaligon's English fern
AS: Proraso
Strops: Neil Miller
Result: Uberclean
Fantastic razor, I only need one new pin for it (the washer on one side of the scales are gone, at the wedge).

Good morning Gentlemen!

Shave prep: Face wash
Brush: Haryali badger
Soap: Martin de Candre 'Le Perle'
Scuttle: Robert Becker extra large
Razor: John Barber, 6/8 smiling french point
Strop: nun2sharp's hanging leather strop
After Shave Splash: Cypress Myrrh home made splash
Notes: First shave with this razor (restore thread here), and what a shave. Smooth squeege-like edge, there was a small frown near the heel which had to go before the edge could be thoroughly established, but it took a great edge after that was sorted. The suds were exquisite, and the splash was brilliant - the soft balsamic abre-like cypress mixes so well with the spicy sweetness of the myrrh, perfect for a cool fall morning like today.

I've been using this for a very long time as I do have very sensitive skin. I do love the fact that it's very neutral in scent so it can be used after any soap or scent and doesn't interfere with any follow up like a cologne or EDT. I soothes very fast, does a good job a moisturizing, it's very affordable and a little goes a long way.

Razor – Osborne & Sons wedge
Brush – Semouge custom badger
Soap – Dr Harris lavender , pre-soak with lemongrass & kiwi glycerin bar
AST – ALUM
AS – Penhaligons BB

Sheffield steel today. Fiddled with the edge on the Russian some more. It pays to know when to stop. I enjoy the Penhaligons BB. To me it smells of juniper. I will probably apply a moisturizer or ASB later as it is cold and dry outside.. Have a nice day guys.

All the reasons I liked as well. I was very surprised how long it lasts. I still have a little less than half a bottle left.
