This is a really good quality soap! The lather is easy to be whipped up into a thick creamy & slick cone of aromatic tobacco pipeish scent! Great for this festive day...
An excellent shave with the razor's F plate in combination with the blade. Rarely used but finally got the best out of this F plate. 3 smooth and very efficient passes for an absolutely bbs finish. Aftershaves were awesome!

Christmas Day Greetings,

As on all Christmas day's since i was a kid, i have always been a early riser due to the festive excitement, now it's my ageing body clock.

The Parker variant is always a pleasure to shave with it's handle is super grippy which is excellent for head shaving without the fear of it slipping out of my
hand whilst shaving.... If i only had the choice to shave with any of my DE razors then the Variant would be a strong contender....Paired together with the Personna Platinum Chrome made a wonderful smooth assertive duo mowing through my face & head stubble with effortless ease....The dependable WS shave stick provided a slick protective lather in a short space of time leaving a excellent post shave feel.

An enjoyable Christmas day face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a few small squirts of Milton Lloyd The Man Cobalt EdT to the chest & pulse points.

My face & precious swede are both feeling silky smooth & smelling divine.

Later, but soon i will be venturing out to the family gathering to prepare the Christmas dinner, my multi tasking-skills come in useful at certain times' and take part in the festive activities, then after that i will be catching up on some well earned rest.

I wish every member of Badger & Blade a merry Christmas. Have a good safe pleasurable day ladies & gentlemen whatever you maybe doing. ;)

Take care...Yours-Barry. :cool:

 
SOTD - Christmas Eve Shave

Razor:
Fatip Piccolo Nickel Open Comb - mighty modern classic excels
Blade: Personna Platinum Chrome (4) - still sharp and smooth
Brush: Yaqi Moka Express Synthetic 24mm - comfortable handle, very soft tips, lather monster
Pre-Shave: CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser Bar, Proraso White Pre Shave - moist protection
Soap: Long Rifle Leatherstocking Shaving Soap - lathers easily, yogurt like lather, stellar performer
Aftershave: Skin Bracer, Duke Cannon A/S Balm - menthol mania
Growth: 67 hours
Passes: WTG, XTG, ATG, touchup
Rating: 10/10

Results: The legendary prowess of the mighty Piccolo was on full display this evening. Relaxing and comfortable BBS result. Great Shave. Long Rifle Soap, my first American Artisan Soap, lathers easily, peaky, moist, thick yogurt like lather. This soap takes lots of water. Feels good on the skin, great barrier of slickness and cushion, good initial and residual slickness, good razor glide and excellent post shave feel. The Fatip Piccolo, Long Rifle and Personna are a winning combination!

Merry Christmas!
