It's another "FREE WEEK" ladies and gentlemen.

It's time to be creative.

Please feel free to post any photo, with any gear and any style you chose, or contribute by telling us what you used in your shave, with comments on the shave, if you desire.

Brush Yaqi 24mm Silvertip
Razor Pearl Flexi Adjustable V1
Blade Derby Premium 2nd
Post & Aftershaves Alum + Stirling Witchhazel MitA + Hyaluronic + Henri et Victoria Cognac &Cuban Cigars Aftershave Balm
Nice aromatic cigarish & maybe cognac scent? The lather was good enough.
Shave with the heavyweight razor paired with the blade was good using between setting 3 to 2 for 3passes without any issues for a dfs+ result. After 2 days of using the light-weight AC razors...this heavy razor shave was a surprise...
Aftershaves were awesome with the matching HetV balm prolonging the great aromatic scent!!!

Pre:-
Razor: Gillette Old Type on Razorock UFO
Blade: „Polsilver“ Extra Stainless only 2nd use by @alin
Brush: SOC Taj Boar
Cream: Vitos Tabacco
Post: TFS Witch Hazel, Vitos After Shaving splash
Result: CCS

Whatever that blade is it’s not a genuine Polsilver. It still feels rough and not a bit like a Polsilver or Wizamet - I binned it after the shave. These two products from Vitos are growing on me after a rather underwhelming start. The scent of the cream is now clean Italian barbershop without any almond notes and the splash while still a powdery affaire is developing it’s own character whereas before I only saw a cheap Floid copy. I’m still looking for that orange treacle though @Owen Bawn
