Soap & Aftershave The Goodfellas Smile Italian Orange
Brush Yaqi 22mm Ever-Helpful
Razor Karve Brass OC-D
Blade JAWS Platinum 1st
The lovely stout brush whip up a very nice lather from this soap. Smells wonderfully refreshing together with the splash.
The infamous and rare JAWS blade paired with the appropriately teethed OC razor, at the beach no less, turns out to be quite harmless (except maybe the jellyfish). Enjoyed 3 very smooth & efficient passes for a bbs-dfs finish...

OK I have just found my next purchase, everyone should own a pack of Jaws blades, where can I buy them? I can't even find them on Google image search.

Brush: Cadman 30mm Tuxedo
Soap: NO Jack
Razor: Frederick Reynolds Swayback
Post: NO Jack

Today's theme was 'Sunny Days', so anything marked as a summer scent or featuring Aquatic or Citrus Accords. I saw lemon, lime and orange so that's that box checked. Along with that it was supposed to be a colour coordinated pic, tried my best but I'm not artistically inclined.

Right, as to the actual shave, very good. The swayback has a nice heft and feels good in the hand, certainly glad I got this. For the soap, hmm, I'm not so sure. I have the same issue here as I've had before, I pick up mainly orange. I had the same thing with Novus Spice, there is seriously something wrong with my nose! On the plus side, the Mrs liked it.

Smooth and seemingly smelling good.

Hope everyone has a grand one.

Cheers

Marc

A very close and comfortable shave this morning. The M7 Manchurian is a genuine treat so soft and so much lather. Two passes was all I needed.

A weekend at the sea shore - my skin took a kicking from the wind, sun and salt spray. Time to apologise to my face. Only one soap for the job - as far as I am concerned - Signature unscented goat's milk base. The most 'healing,' moisturising and restorative of any soap I own. End of. My skin feels great again and I look somewhat rugged and windswept. Saludos a todos - I.

Thank you Iain. Fabulous image. Thought for one minute you’d been trying to develop the seafaring look of our very own @Satanfriendly
