Williams Wednesday. After my first night shift, I showered and then shaved. The huge Comet brush whipped up great lather and the Schick E3 with the Chick blade on the 9th shave left me BBS. Finished with Nivea and went to sleep.

Hello, my two last shaves in 1 pic :



I had to test these Darwin Popular prototypes that I received recently, not too bad ! Interesting fact, they are not made of the same metal...

Bonne journée Messieurs

Intriguing photo! Darwin prototypes, eh?

Beautiful image with bright reflections and a good blur at some points to complement the image centralization



Thank you Ron for your kind words.

Excellent portrait intricately designed.

Fat Tuesday / Tech Tuesday
Uncharted territory. The prewar tech performed most excellently with a Feather on its 9th shave. I should have kept it to try for a 10th, but I binned it just because. Excellent MWF lather whipped up with the big boar, and finished with Nivea Cool Kick ASB and Gillette Cool Wave AS. Have a blessed day gentlemen.

Quite an attractive mirrored photo, Rod. Love the scratched overlay.

Last week and a half I didn't have the opportunity and time to post my shaves, hectic time at the job, but finally I caught a breather and I'm able to post my last shave of yesterday night:

Very good shave with this little beauty Leresche Modèle #85. The Gillette Silver Blue was a first and on its first use I can say that this blade will fall on my top 5 of DE blades, next shaves will tell in what position though hehe.

Calani soap and balm are a sensorial delicacy. Very good performance and the always present orange aroma is a pleasure.

Hope everyone has a great week! Cheers.

Love the casual, spacious layout, Daniel. Nice looking razor. I used the Calani for the first time today. Lovely soap; great fragrance.

The PdP No. 63 and Cremo Sandalwood complimented each other excellent for a superlather! 2 pass BBS with no irritation.

Date: 22 June 2017

Brush: - Semogue Special Edition 2012 Badger/Boar knot 24/55mm
Cream/Soap: - Stirling Island Man
Razor: - Colonial General Aluminum Head with the iKon Bulldog Handle
Blade: - Schick Proline P-30 #8
Post: - Thayers Witch Hazel 'Lemon' / Bulldog Original Aftershave Balm

I really enjoy the Stirling Island Man shaving soap the color of the soap is light blue when you open the lid and the scent smell soft sweet and relax on my nose, not too sweet that you might hate it straight away and it does smell very similar to Palmolive Classic European shave stick with a mixture of Bay Rum together. I can only smell the bergamot, lime, mandarin, ginger, sugarcane, musk, and rum, this Stirling Island Man shaving soap is worth it to have this in your den.

Gartbnx....

The distressed wood is an excellent backdrop for your gear. That Rocnel SE-G is a formidable looking razor. How does it perform?
