Followed up with some QED DaVinci Water

I gotta admit, I got some road rash from the str8, but I DID shave at the sink instead of in the shower.

Another C&E Sienna day...

My wife and youngest son were both sick today, so I stayed home from work (vacationing as a nurse. Gotta love it!).

After a LONG hot shower with my Beaudelaire Rose soap and my Cedar Exfoliating brush (complete with Nancy Boy hair products) I shaved with:

Vulfix 41
C&E Sienna Cream (just could NOT get the right lather today!!:mad: )
Futur and Slant bar (both with Feather blades)
Pacific Shave Oil
QED DaV H2O
Hydrolast Lime & Green Tea Cutting Balm
Hydrolast Peppermint A/S
Trumper Coral Skin Food

After 4 passes with the Futur, I "oiled up" with the Cutting Balm and did touch and cut (using the Slant) for any stubble that I could find. I did get a tiny bit of razor burn on one side of my Adam's apple... However, over 12 hours later and I'm still baby-butt smooth (even against the grain)!!:001_tt1:

Finished up with C&E Sienna EdT

I don't usually post my shaves, but this was one of the better ones I've had in a long while. With my winter induced dry skin, maybe the conditioner and PSO helped out. Or maybe winter has gone away for a while seeing that it's rained the past few days and highs have hovered between 50 and 60 here.

Do you have any Feathers to use in that Progress?

Art,

Sorry about the missing pics. Haven't done many in the past couple of weeks. Unfortunately, I have other things going which are slowing me down as far as pics and participation. I do have Feathers, but I just don't want to use one with a new razor. One thing at a time!

Jeff

Jeff,

For the money it's a great soap. Surrey offers three different versions, I have the deluxe. The scent is very pleasant, and it lathers easier than Williams. However, it doesn't last long...disappears pretty quick, but then, at $1.50 a puck, I don't expect it to last forever.

Jerry, just out of idle curiosity, how's the Shave Shop cream? Do you like it?

Jeff

[DoubleE]

Jerry, just out of idle curiosity, how's the Shave Shop cream? Do you like it?

Jeff

Jeff:

The Shave Shop cream lather wise is very good. I can whip up a wonderful, rich lather with it. It does a nice job of lubricating as well and I get a good shave with it. I just don't care for the scent much. It sort of has a medicinal smell to it. The after shave gel is very functional as well. I accidentally got it on my lips this morning.....tastes terrible! When I run out, I won't repurchase.

Jerry

[crackstar]

Thanks, Jerry for the info, I appreciate it. For me, a scent is usually important in a cream or a soap, so now I know what to do. Thanks again! :smile:

Jeff

[Scotto]

Shave Shop smelled like baby powder to me, so I traded it away. Man, the lather was good, though.... I'll stick to some of the other Taylor's scents....

[Rik]

Taylor's Shaving Shop scent is one of my favorites. I also enjoy the matching EdT

[crackstar]

Rick, Scotto, the 3 Taylors scents I love are almond, avocado, and sandalwood, although I must say Mr Taylors is nice too. The Eton College scent irritated my skin, and I had a breakout especially on my neck.

Jeff

[DoubleE]

Taylor's Shaving Shop scent is one of my favorites. I also enjoy the matching EdT

Oh good grief!! Rik, when you mentioned Taylor's shaving shop, it dawned on me what I'd done! I meant to post Body Shop, not Shave Shop!:redface:

SMF Brush and Cocobola Custom 6/8 Straight (see my avatar)
T&H Ultimate Shaving Cream (Sample)
AOS A/S Balm

The T&H Ultimate Shaving Cream has a beautiful lavender scent. Not too heavy, but very pleasant. The lather reminded me of Taylor's Avocado as far as consistency and lubrication. This will definitely go on my list of things to buy.

The AOS A/S Balm made it's second appearance. I used it last night after having also used the AOS Pre-Shave Oil. This stuff goes on heavy. Two hours later, it has settled in, and leaves my face feeling moist, with just a "touch" of "greasiness". I'm not sure I like it as well as I thought I would. I've got enough for one more use, but now my thinking is that this is something I would only use if my skin were really dry.

0-7= 4 very good

This may not be the appropriate forum for this, but I find the scent of the pre/post far stronger than I would prefer, and it does tend to linger a bit longer than some have said. Great moisturizing properties, though. If it were scent free (or just plain lighter) it would be a much more desirable product.
I'm normally not a big fan of glycerin-based soaps, but this Willi G. is growing on me. The #7 is a little weird scentwise, and the sandalwood doesn't compete with the big boys, but it sure does allow for one close shave. Overall, I prefer them to the Classic soaps.

Thanks

Jeff

It is a blend of lavender and rose hydrosols. Smells real nice and is very soothing. In one of the weird quirks of nature, it smells like neither rose nor lavender, IMO, but something else. Cinnamon, perhaps. Whatever it is, is is one of the nicest things to spray on your puss after a shave. It is inexpensive from Charles at QED (http://www.qedusa.com). I also use it night, after cleaning my face and before moisturizing.

Are you sure it's the L'Occitane soap you've heard less than stellar things about? I've heard it about the cream but never the soap which, in my opinion, provides a wonderfully rich, lubricating lather.

Jerry

Ah man, the cream, they can ram it! I wouldn't take it even for free! I heard a few less than ideal remarks about the CADE soap, but whoever doesn't like it, it's just too bad.
