SOTD "FREE WEEK" May 21st - May 27th, 2018

05/23/2018 - Wednesday Night Shave - Recipe -> *Frozen Cherry's and Ripe Bananas*
I really love the Stirling Glacial Black Cherry soap - I got this last year and its a Frozen Cherry Popsicle! Just great, not sure if there was a matching after shave last year? but I saw it offered last week and they are using clear bottles now - Really cool looking! So I ordered it and of course requested the Glacial aftershave (I always do when offered), gotta say it is amazing - just like the soap. I have been using the PAA rabid banana pre shave soap CUBE for 3 days and wow is this a slick and amazing product - very strong banana scent and so is there Star Jelly (this is a new balm he is offering with menthol added - it is becoming my best balms, it has alcohol and the menthol - just so soothing and not greasy at all) - Cherry and Bananas! now that is one great combination. I forget the model no. for this PEARL OC - 3 piece - but its aggressive - I tried these brasilian Gillette blades for the first time - and the jury is out? not sure if there rough? or was it poor technique on a Razor I barely use - still a good shave and any irritation is healed in the morning - advantage on night shaving....
peace - JAMIE

First use of the SuperMax BDT in my reference Shake Sharp v1.0 (in my usual twin configuration) . First impression is smoother than the Karve-D and at least comparable in efficiency. I think I'll add the C plate for the Karve and see how that fares, but if the Karve doesn't best it I really don't imagine I'll find anything that does.

The soaps/bars you're using always seem to come with interesting geometry. Do you cut them/use them in a specific way?
