Greetings,


A new shave set up to start the weekend... The Haslinger soap is another soap i shamefully haven't added to my soap rotation for a while.

The soap is a magnificent performer with only a slight clean pleasant fragrance 'to my nose' the vast majority of shaving soap scents disappeared once i rinsed my face with cold water..The schafmilch sheep milk soap reminds me of MWF, Kent, + which all contain lanolin what i instantly liked about it was, it lathered up in no time without the addition of blooming creating a wonderful luxurious slick protective lather leaving a superb post shave feeling to my face.I have a new shaving soap that ive yet to try out Lanolin Wool Fat, with cedarwood and patchouli essential oils shaving Soap from Natural skincare products Hampshire UK, that i bought from Ebay as a pre-birthday gift to myself ,the ingredients & texture are very similar to MWF/Kent. I'll add it in next weeks SOTD set ups and do a maiden shave with it.

Everything in the shave set worked together superbly.

A comfortably smooth 3 pass + pick ups BBS shave with no errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a generous dollop of L'0REAL ~ Soothing Birch Sap PSB.

My face is feeling super smooth and smelling devine.

Stay safe,and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.

Testing new soaps (8/8) — last day of new soaps

Prep: Shower (Sabon - Gentlemen)
Soap: RazoRock - Emperor
Blade: Astra SP (6th shave)
Razor: Mühle R89
Brush: RazoRock 400 Plissoft
After shave: Nivea Men - Protect & Care
Fragrance: Creed - Aventus
Post-shave: last shave of the week, blade change, razor cleaning with clear water & toothbrush

Soap verdict:
Lather: back to the shiny thick lather like I love, and easy to obtain on top of that.
Scent: RazoRock's take on my favorite perfume: Creed Aventus. It's a scent battle between this and Stirling's Executive Man. You can definitively say that both were inspired by Creed's perfum, but they took two different path to recreate the smell. It's hard to explain, but while you can say ok this soap's scent matches well with the perfume, they do not smell the same way, so it's definitively a good idea to buy both! (more soaps!)

Remainder of yesterday's PAA Solstice lather in the Turkish Copper bowl

Amazing! Yesterday's leftover lather in the bowl...looks dried-up but upon adding some water and working it against the bowl...a healthy resulting lather which is slick enough too. Mild scent still present. Tried shaving with the SR (just completed so called self-honing on film) 2 pass wtg & xtg but not very good. Not really shave ready. Guess my honing skills is still way off.
Complete the shave with New RR SLOC 1st use. Really nice the RR SLOC with BarberPole handle...feels great in hand and on face. Paired with the blade it was OK smoothness and sharpness. Did a 2 pass xtg & atg and no issues with weepers and irritation. BBS and DFS result with the score today at 9/10
