Hello B&Bers!

This Weekโ€™s SOTD Theme Week is all about Fancy shaving gear!

Show us your favourite fancy shaving gear including expensive soaps, rare razors, your most luxurious brushes, rare/discontinued soaps, special occasion fragrances, etc.
If a shaving item looks fancy, we want to see it regardless of cost. If you use a Waterford or Baccarat tumbler as a shaving bowl, we want to see it! Have a gold plated or diamond encrusted razor? A 500ml bottle of Creed Aventus? Letโ€™s see them too!

If you donโ€™t have anything you would consider fancy, post a pic of your favourite shaving setups. Or post pics of your usual SOTD or just tell us all about it. Fancy non-shaving related items incorporated into your pics works as well. A Patek Philippe watch paired with Arko and a Dollarstore razor is indeed acceptable. Letโ€™s see lots of great images this week!

As always, sticking with the theme is NOT mandatory but encouraged.

Letโ€™s see your most impressive shaving items!

This was the third shave with the Merkur 37c razor and Personna Medical Prep Blade. The shave was close and smooth. Todayโ€™s brush is one of my favorite synthetic brushes: Omega EVO. This brush can make excellent lather from all the soaps I use. The TSF soap was used for the 15th time. It was a perfect shave. Have a wonderful day, folks.
