Big Knots Week / Tabactober / OCtober

Prep: Nothing but a nice warm shower

Razor: Gillette NEW Deluxe 1931 (#5134)
Blade: Persona Platinum Chrome

Soap: Tabac Original (tallow)
Brush: Van Der Hagen Pure Badger

Post 1: P.A.A. Alum No-Slip Grip System w/ Dry Dock System
Post 2: Dickinson's Enhanced Witch Hazel Deep Cleansing Astringent w/ Menthol & Eucalyptus
Aftershave: Pinaud Clubman Musk
Post 4: Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel-Cream Extra-Dry w/ Hyaluronic Acid

Being that it's Clubman Friday I wanted to mix things up so I paired some Clubman Musk with the always wondered Tabac soap.

I did a three-pass shave with some cleanup and earned a nice bbs face. I do have to say though that I'm still feeling a small bit of irritation after a handful of hours. I believe this is most likely due to being a little too aggressive myself with the cleanup. The Persona blade is pretty good, sharp blade if I do say. This definitely played a part.

Overall another really nice shave today.

Enjoy your shaves gentlemen!

Pre:
Cold wet flannel to my face & head.
Pears Original Transparent Bar Soap.
Brush: Omega 10066.
Bowl Lather.
Bowl: Home Bargains Stainless Steel Side Bowl.
Lather: Haslinger Schafmilch Shaving Soap.

Post:
Cold water face & head wash with brush squeezing's, Cold Water Face & Head Rinse. / Homemade (~Autumn/Winter mix~) peppermint lavender, eucalyptus, + Tea Tree essential Oils Mixed Together With 200ml of Care+Witch Hazel. /Geoffrey Beene Grey Flannel ASL. / L'0REAL Soothing Birch Sap PSB.

(Face & Head Shave.)

Greetings,

A new shave set up to start the weekend. Carrying on with the OC-tober focus with the FaTip Grande which paired together with the Bolzano SI superbly.

Both the FaTip Grande & Parker InjRzr performed wonderfully.

One thing i find with the Bolzano SI like a lot of DE blades it feels smoother & performs better on the second pass. However, this could have been down to me familiarizing myself with the blade again after another long hiatus of not using them. Their sharpness is near to the Feather Hi stainless with a smooth edge.

A very close comfortable face & head shave with errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of L'0REAL Soothing Birch Sap PSB.

My face & precious swede are feeling smooth & smelling divine.

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

Aftershave Stirling Haverford Splash
Marvelous lather from the soap, whip up nicely by my widest fan badger brush...
Enjoyed this shave after a few weeks with a DE. This razor's edge did not feel good the last time I used it so today put it through the La Lune stone with some slurry and then water. The resulting 3pass shave was much better. Crisp and comfortably smooth edge. Managed a mixed dfs-ccs-sas finish. The aftershave is always good...
