SOTD "FREE WEEK" March 2nd - March 8th, 2020

[benos]

Saturday, 3/7:

Razor - Merkur 34C
Blade - Feather
Brush - Leonidam "Bishop" 26mm 2-band badger
Soap - Soap Commander Courage
A/S - Brickell unscented balm

I ended up with a really nice shave today, despite this blade being totally spent and not cutting well. I guess I could've taken it out early on and just continued with a new one, but I still ended up with great results, and my face feels great, so I win, blade! This brush is fun to use, and this soap has a really great scent. Ah, Saturday.

It's another "FREE WEEK" ladies and gentlemen.

It's time to be creative.

Please feel free to post any photo, with any gear and any style you chose, or contribute by telling us what you used in your shave, with comments on the shave, if you desire.

Color, B&W, sepia or a photograph with any type of artistic touch you wish is always desired.

HAVE FUN!​

I just tried shaving with Cold River Soaps and wow! I always thought all this talk about the magical “post shave” experience was some fairy tail or folk lore.. holy was I wrong. This has been the first soap that I haven’t needed moisturizer or balm afterwards. My face felt fantastic, very impressive!

Soap: Truefitt & Hill Number 10
Brush: Maggard's synthetic brush
Razor: Gillette Guard Razor
Blade: GG single-blade pivoting cartridge
Post: Alum Crystal
Aftershave:Nivea Cooling After Shave Balm

Trying to a dull a pretty fresh blade to make for safe headshaving. Made a few temple area passes with this. Bad idea. Instant irritation. But golly, this Truefitt and Hill smells wonderful.

Greetings,


A relaxing sunday morning shave.


Like a vast majority of UK tradtional wet shavers the wilkinson sword "classic" razor was one of my first introductory de razors when i entered the wonderful world of traditional wet shaving, It's a razor that i will always be proud to have in my den purely because of it's classic design, and durable usages.Both the wilkinson sword 'Classic' & 'premium TTO' razors are excellent daily or travel razors that have gave me socially acceptable comfortable irritation-free shaves with each outing. Paired together with a more aggressive blade,both of these ladies can be assertive...

Another enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups silky smooth shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of Nivea Men ~ Body Shaving Anti-Irritation ASLB.

My face is feeling silky smooth & smelling devine.

Enjoy your Sunday Ladies & Gentlemen.
