MONDAY SHAVE​

Blend of CELLA SS + TOBS Eton Hall SC
Simpson Colonel X2L
PARKER 98R "GOLIATH" RAZOR
Red IP (1)
Alum block
SCS Smoke & Beads Edt
BBS in 4 passes

Used the 4-pass shave technique posted by "guenron" on the main site. This was on a 2 day beard. Excellent results!!!! Very nice shave - no irritation. The Red IP in the Goliath was a beast - but this worked very well!!!

Merkur Open Comb w/ Personna Med Prep
Proraso
SOC
DRH Arlington

I am still shocked how good a shave Proraso gives. I think my face might just love this soap. Anyway the Fatboy really tore up my face this weekend (I'm not sure why) so I switced back to the Merkur which have a nice shave but since I'm babying my face for the next few days I just got a SAS which really is not like me to accept, but 2 passes with no irritation I can't complain. Have a great Monday Gents! :thumbup:

Pre Prep + DR Harris Arlington + New Forest 2213 + UFO U2 "Long" with Feather Portable head and Filomatic #2 + Herbíssimo balm + Sergio Tacchini after shave


Not so bad shave, although a had some itching because the blade (strange, normally it performs really well). By the way, this italian lotion smells really sophisticated and left good the skin! And it was a cheap buy, hehe


Cheers!
