Thanks Ron, I don't reply everytime but I love reading your feedback and of course you are the master of sotd pics with consistent quality pics. With busy fast-paced lives I thank u again for taking time to view my photos.

Thank you, Jamie.

Thanks Ron, today you had a naturist shave , I've never tried any vegan soap how does it compare to the so-called normal shaving soaps we use the most​

.​

Come to think of it, I rarely notice whether a soap is tallow or vegan, except when I purchase it [if the soap is available in both I buy the tallow]. I've found that sometimes the tallow produces a richer lather for me. In the case of Ginger's Garden Spice Grenade the soap whipped quickly into abundant lather which could easily have served for two three pass shaves.

An excellent close to the week, gentlemen. Thank you for the glorious photographs and well-written posts. All were greatly appreciated.


@DblD - Intrigued by the Proraso/Osage Rub splash, Doug ... a fine finisher?

Yeah, it is a real nice finisher for me. It just adds more of a Menthol kick without compromising the scent of the Proraso. I'll add a 1 to maybe 5 ratio. I really like the Proraso Green scent.

I had a good shave tonight with my AlumiGoose V1 with a Weber Wave handle loaded with a Feather Pro blade and some La Toja and my Muhle STF 25mm brush. I love the way this brush feels on my face. It just covers my face and I love it.
