Panna Crema Africa face lathered with my Shavemac Silver-Tip Fan, Oh So Good, had another easy Two-pass with the Krona. Tomorrow I'll use Jabonman Orient Breeze and my Badger Best/MilkChurn style by Deruitem, back to my Injector Shaves.
 
Vitos Extra Super today - provided a great lather to knock down 3 day's growth.

Nice but not good enough to keep from trying my MdC sample for 2-pass Tuesday.
 
You guessed it.... tonight's gonna be Panna Crema Vetiver! Sprayed a little Encre Noire on my wrist last night before bed to get me in the mood.

Enjoying my croaps, but today and tomorrow I'm taking the days off to experiment w/ a pass-around brush and hard soaps/soft creams.
 
No shave today, yesterday was Jabonman Oriental Breeze. The Oriental Breeze has a very nice scent, made my 4 y/o son sniff it from the tin and he didn't care for it, he did sniff the lather and liked it much better. I had to load my brush twice to get a good first pass and I had enough left in the brush for a second pass. It's a fairly soft soap that builds into a slick & rich lather, overall a pretty nice soap/croap that is protective and won't dry your skin.
 
I only shaved once on my 4 day trip (RazoRock Third Eye) but I'm back in the saddle with QCS Rose Otto. :thumbup1:
 
Jabonman Tangerine and Vetiver. First time using Jabonman soap - I wasn't so sure about this soap at first, but it provided a really good, comfortable shave. It softened my facial hair nicely, provided above average cushion and glide, rinsed off my face nicely, and smelled very, very nice.

I have been loving my Mystic Waters Irish Traveler. Tons of thick yogurt lather with super post shave face feel. I am loving this Croap Month.
 
I think I've literally tried a different croap everyday for this entire month. Today was TFS Bergamotto Neroli Intensa which was a sample I got last summer from Barbiere Di Figaro. This soap is incredible. I keep forgetting about it because it's in an unmarked little sample container, but it's very good stuff.

Second shave with the Jabonman Oriental Breeze, I had a decent face lather with my J.L. Petree Horse/Badger. I think additional loading is needed, I was accustomed to a 35-45 second loading of Panna Crema, Jabonman is quite a bit firmer so I'll shoot for ~80-90 seconds. The lather was on the thin side but also very slick and the two-pass shave was quick & easy without any skipping, tugging, nicks or cuts.

I'll use the Jabonman with my Omega Synthetic tomorrow and increase the load time, trying for a fuller, thicker lather.
 
Well in my mostly non-awake, under caffeinated state I grabbed RazoRock XXX by mistake.

I like mistakes like that :thumbup1:

Sounds like a great mistake to enjoy making!

I do not need an official "Croap Month" to Vitos away my horrible beard...
But for those who have not yet "Croaped Up" - this is an excellent idea!:shaving:
