Last shave before November?

[DutchWolf]

Hello fellow shavers,

I was wondering what your last shave before November is going to be. Its going to be a long time before we are going to shave our full faces again so I decided to make it somewhat special.

I bought a 1954 first flare tip Super-Speed "Z1" about 2 weeks ago and didn't use it since I liked my Gillette adjustable from 1962 so much. But I got some great tips on how to clean it and it came out beautifull. So here is the list what I used for my last full face shave before November.

Razor: 1954 first flare tip Super-Speed "Z1"
Blade: A fresh Astra SP
Pre shave: Proraso Green
Shaving soap: The Goodfella's Smile Abysso
Brush: Yaqi Synthetic 24mm
Aftershave: Floïd Suave

So what did I think of this shave? It was a DFS. Although I must say I do like my Gillette Adjustable (setting 4) more. I found the Super speed a bit too aggressive for my likings but maybe I need to get more used to it.
The shaving soap Abysso is just amazing, great scent and a lovely lather.
The Proraso green, blade and brush is something I always use so they always are good for me.
And to finish with Floïd was a nice finishing touch, It luckily didnt give me a real harsh burn.

Let me know what you guys will be using for your last full face shaves!

Yesterday's soap was MWF and today it will be Tabac. Brush was Simpsons Colonel and today I'm going with the Chub 2 in Best. Razor is always the Fatip Piccolo, loaded with BIC Chrome Platinum. For the post-shave I've been hitting the Malizia Uomo Vetiver regularly to freshen the foggy rainy days.

Not home yet. Spent part of my workday putting up insulation...so I'm all itchy and will definitely need the late night shower.

So why not shave before I go to bed?

Razor: the long-handle Progress

Blade: new Shark Super Chromium

Soap: probably Proraso Red

After: Afta balm

My last shave of October was with my 2 piece RFB, GSB, MdC Fougere, Rudy Vey 24mm TGN, Clubman. I will use a similar setup today for my first shave in November.
