Brush: Omega S10065 24/56
Cream: La Toja Classic
Razor: RazoRock Lupo 95 GT
Blade: Personna Red (14)
ASL: Clubman Whiskey Woods

An excellent shave. :biggrin:

I had to take up (@Raven Koenes) Rave's challenge and shave with my nearly forgotten S-Brush and a tubed cream. Well, I squeezed an inch of La Toja Classic onto my damp S-Brush and started face lathering (adding mini dips of water as required). Rave was complaining about S-Brushes being lather hogs.

As soon as I noticed diminishing lather from the brush, I simply gave the base of the knot a squeeze. With just that single squeeze I had sufficient lather for the rest of the shave AND a good bit spare (to clean the drains with :lol1:).

I still really like my S-Brush. If they came in smaller sizes (20mm or less) the finger would be pressing that buy-it-now button pronto.


Happy shaves guys. :cornut:

I'm loving the colourful vibes of your set-up and products :) Your brush and razor go so well together too, it's just too fun to look at all these pics, getting addicted haha :D
Thank you very much. I thought the brass razor handle and wooden brush handle complimented each other too. I purchased the handle by itself from West Coast Shaving and the razor head from Maggard Shaving and the brush from Wet Shaving Products.

While I appreciate advances in the synthetics I still like the S-Brush too.

A wonderfully happy scent from this soap. The lather is just so creamy and very slick...
Reached my 70th SR shave with this razor. Very enjoyable session. The razor's edge was as smooth and comfortable in 3passes without any issues for a mixed dfs/ccs/sas result. Aftershaves were awesome!
