Nice! I love all the Speick stuff I've used (stick, cream, deodorant, and body bar). It's one company that really really knows what it's doing.
My shave yesterday:
Uber aggressive German Military Slant w/ Red IP
Simpson Ehsan (2 band XL2)
Irisch Moos SS
Alum
Aloe Vera Gel (to heal from that aggressiveness)
Pen's BB ASB
I haven't nicked myself in a looooong time. Got 3 yesterday with this crazy razor!

Sunday Morning:
Hot Shower/Proraso Glycerin Cleansing Bar/Hot Towel
1955 Gillette Flare Tip Super Speed
Swedish Gillette (Shave #2)
Tweezerman Deluxe
Noxzema Lather SC
Aqua Velva Classic A/S
Vaseline IRML Lotion
I'm starting to regret my decision to sell off my Noxzema stash. Truth be told, I never got a great lather from this stuff until today. I think it has to do mostly with the brush that I used before. My Kent/Altesse is a pretty decent sized brush. In fact, it's the largest one I own next to the Omega Pro 48 badger. When using the Kent/Altesse with the Noxzema, the lather that I always got was very foamy and airy and not very good. Today, using the Tweezerman, I got a very exceptional lather that provided very exceptional results. The Tweezerman, in my opinion, is a VERY underrated brush. It's a great starter brush or a great brush to have in your regular rotation and you can't beat the price at just $10-$15 a pop. Great shave today.

Early Sunday Morning (or late Saturday night)no photo alas:
Nancy Boy Cream
Merkur Straight Metal Handle silvertip brush (part of Futur set)
Mastro Livi "New Grind" series 6/8
L'Occitane Cade ASB
Saturday was a strange day for shaving. I was feeling dreadful in the late afternoon/early evening, didn't feel up to stropping, and gave myself a cursory one pass (in several different directions!) with the Futur and some Cade, whipped up with my littl' Plisson size 8 (which is becoming a more and more interesting brush to memore elsewhere). It was a crummy shave, but at least I shaved, and the smell of the Cade was comforting.
Stayed up late watching movies and TeeVee with the sig.other, and by the time she was ready to hit the sack, I felt fully recoveredand my face was feeling as stubbly as it had earlier in the day. So I got the Livi, stropped it, lathered up some NB (because of this thread, otherwise I would have used Cade again) and gave myself a decent three passes. I'm not good enough with straights yet to get BBS, but it was a DFS, fer sure.
Then I relaxed, hit the sack, and slept like a baby.
(* * *)
I am loving (and very jealous of) all the pictures! Wha, are you all secret pro photographers or something?

Indeed. The Speick line is impressive. I love their products.

Was a great shave. The Salter cream is very nice, lots of lather from a small amount, and well worth the price I think
