New Gear Week / Exploration Blade PIF / NOCvember

Pre: P.A.A. Cube 2.0

Razor: Blackland Blackbird
Blade: Eddison Super Stainless

Soap: P.A.A. Cavendish
Brush: Yaqi Black & White
Bowl: Bluff Cove Pottery

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: P.A.A. Gondolier
Post 4: Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel-Cream Extra-Dry w/ Hyaluronic Acid

Again, dipping into the samples I have. Today's soap is Cavendish by Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements. This soap has a scent I like very much. It's a nice tobacco, woody, leather and vanilla scent. Don't let the notes fool you. The blend is exquisite.

Today's shave included the new Yaqi brush I won recently. It whipped up the Cavendish easy peasy in my goto bowl.

Im on shave number 3 for the Eddison blade. It's still going strong, especially when matched with the mighty Blackland Blackbird.

A four-pass shave was had due to the shear love of the shave. The end result is a sweet bbs shave.

I topped this endeavor with some P.A.A. Gondolier aftershave. Wow! This stuff smells great. It's a very nice, bright, classic yet masculine scent. Absolutely worth checking out if you never have.

All in all I had a great shave. These P.A.A. samples continue to impress.

I hope you enjoy your shave as much as I did mine.

Until next time. Shave on gentlemen.

Brush: Shavemac Silvertip 2-Band 20/46
Soap: Stirling Unscented
Razor: Worlds Finest Safety Razor GT
Blade: Gillette 7o'clock Ninja (14)
ASL: Duru Limon Kolonya 80°

A very fine shave. :biggrin:

After a 20+ month break I was shocked at how mild my Fine WFSR felt! But it was really nice and gave equal results to my other favorites.


Happy shaves guys. :cornut:

The soap & matching splash smells really nice and strong. The lather created by the excellent brush was fabulous...
Still a good shave with this blade in the razor. Although not as smooth nor efficient but still easy & comfortable enough in 3passes for a dfs+ finish
