What are you shaving with Thanksgiving Morning?

I'm using Crabtree & Evelyn Tallow-Based. A special soap for a special day.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Tosuke Japanese traditional straight, rooney stubby finest, unsure of which of my many tallow based soaps Ill use. This is pretty much every shave though not just on the gobble day.
 
PC Bay Rum soap. I'll follow that up with the Bigelow Bay Rum balm, then do the CBMS* with Pinaud Clubman Bay Rum, and top it off with the Bigelow Bay Rum Cologne.

I'm going to smell like holiday centerpiece when I'm done! :w00t:



*Charles Bronson Mandom Shower
 
Ooo, good question. Maybe my MWF since I haven't used it in a few days. Or my Godrej. Either way, it should be good.

Nothing (ie not shaving on Bird day). Why? Because I will not be at work on Thursday.

HOWEVER! I will have to go to work on Friday.

So on Friday (with two days of face hair) I will be using:
1) Razor: Gem Circle G
2) Blade: Persona Single Edge Super Stainless Steel blade.
3) Soap: Mama Bears Dragon's Blood Shaving Soap
Note: Typically I do three passes with my normal shave but with the Gem Circle G I only have to do two passes.
 
I will be using:

TI Silverwing 5/8
Simpson Chubby 1 Super
Castle Forbes pre shave
Penhaligons English Fern
Dominica Bay Rum Lime
Castle Forbes Lavender AS Balm

Have to make it count, I have to work tomorrow unfortunately. But I'm excited, I just received the EF tallow soap from a fellow member today. Can't wait!
 
Thanksgiving will be a no-shave day for me. My no-shave ritual is...

CADE Juniper Bark Face Scrub in the morning followed by some Thayer's Unscented. After that, I'm leaning towards some T&H Spanish Leather.

At night, I'll moisturize with a combination of CADE Youth Concentrate and pure shea butter.

Face will be all set for Friday's shave of Art of Shaving Sandalwood soap and a Gem 1912 with a fresh blade.
 
Believe it or not... I have been shaving with an Injector for the past week. We've been renovating a bathroom, so a lot of stuff was moved around. And I just happened to have an Injector out so I put that in the extra bathroom that I've been using during the renovations.

I am not, nor ever have been, in love with Injectors. But used properly, they can deliver a fabulous shave. And once or twice I think I have done just that.

Prairie Creations Old Spice Soap

No Mandom Shower, but certainly FLOWERY!
 
Not sure on the razor yet: either GEM pushbutton with Ted Pella blade or Merkur Futur with a Vincent (part of a sampler--I don't have high hopes for the blade)

Ogallala Bay Rum Shave Soap
Royall Bay Rhum A/S
 
The kids & grand kids are coming here so I shaved last night to save time. Used the SS instead of the HD for a change.
