Greetings,

A new eclectic shave set up to start the weekend....Another superb performance from the Ach Brito Mogno Shaving Soap Bar which i use like a shave stick rubbing it directly into my stubble then build up a lather with my wet brush adding more water to the tips of the brush continued building the lather until i get it to the consistency i prefer.

My reacquaintance with both the Personna Comfort Coated & Parker 24C open comb razor has been fantastic....This duo really works well together.

Another close comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave shave off with a few small dollops of Aloe Vera Cooling Gel.

My face & precious swede are feeling smooth cool and smelling divine. ;)

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

A superb, easy, plentiful lather with the large (23mm) Mühle Silvertip Fibre brush. Saponificio Varesino lather is wonderful stuff, and the Claymore had no problem at all removing it and the stubble in two easy passes.

I still love the scent of Bay Rum and the Stirling version is very nice, face lathered today with the faux pony copper Zenith, I'd made up a couple of my own splashes in 2019 and pulled out the #2 for today to use after a rub of infused Argan oil.
The Kai blade still smooth in the copper ATT, 3 passes for an easy BBS finish.
Spot on that.
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.
 
Razor = Ikon B1 OSS
Blade = Astra SP ( 2 )

Soap = Haunted Cabin By McDuffs
with matching splash.
Balm = Barts Ben Nevis.
IMG_1781.jpegWhat a difference a couple of days make,
My face seemed to be in bits with the Lambada
& today was a top 10/10,
I don’t think iv ever had a bad shave with the Ikon so i’ll take it to Indonesia with me next week.
The soap was another BST buy and another great addition although the scent is very weird.
At First i was getting chocolate, Peanut Butter but my wife said she got cookies,
Either way it wasn’t a great scent,
As i lathered up the scent was changing,
I was started to get marzipan or certainly my take on it but once i started applying to the face the scent changed again, something a lot milder, more subtle and a pleasure to use.
The Shave was a total bbs with not a sign of hair anywhere.
The Scent of the splash was the exact same as the soap which sometimes can be unusual,
Over all i’m glad iv got it whether the scent is weird or not.
Until Next time
Enter your weekend guys
