Theme Week time AGAIN!


It's time to show the B&B community your favourite Artisan soaps and creams.


Being creative and having fun IS mandatory as usual. Sticking with the theme is NOT mandatory. Feel free to post any SOTD photo or just tell us about your shave.


We are talking about posting pics of tubs/tubes of soaps and creams here, so the more creative the better. And yes, Arko is allowed. 😱

This is a wonderfully scented soap. The lather quality is creamy and very slick too...
The shave with the razor paired with this blade was another good session. Smooth and comfortable in 3passes without any issues for a dfs finish. The aftershave surprisingly matches well with the soap...similar.

MMMonday shave, Nov 8th 2021

Razor: Star bar #4 lather catcher- Mfg 1919-20, might of been the last models of the Star lather catchers MFG, tame mid range, beautiful design and works like a charm. I always get excellent shaves with razor and is one of my favorites. Excellence IMO.
Blade: Gem Personna SS PTFE(2) very sharp, great longevity, smooths out nicely + predictable.
Soap: Razorock Santa Maria del Fiore, nice mild vanilla & tobacco scent with excellent lather qualities.(Misted)
Brush: Yaqi 24mm High mountain Silver tip badger, excellent lather generator, pillow like soft tips, nice scrubber + great painter.
Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe and bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups.
Post shave: Razorock Santa Maria del Fiore AS with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(balm) + scentless.
Results: CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers = :a17: Excellent shave with my Star bar #4 with a coated Gem blade.
