Brush: Edwin Jagger medium best badger Soap: Ogallala Bay Rum Lime & Peppercorn Bowl: Muhle stoneware Razor: Gillette Slim Adjustable K-2 (set on 4) Blade: Derby Extra (2) Dickenson's Original Witch Hazel (yellow label) Aftershave: Ogallala Bay Rum Lime & Peppercorn Came close to using the injector this morning. Even put a new blade in it before grabbing the slim. Good lather with the Ogallala this morning. Trick is load the brush like crazy and use almost no water.

Omega boar Proraso soap '49 Super Speed Crystal blade Italian Floid aftershave I have shaving creams and soaps that cost more than Proraso, but nothing does a better job of providing a close, comfortable shave. I enjoy the soap and cream equally. --Previous Message-- : : Semogue 1250 : Connaught cooling : Merkur 1904 : Shark super chrome : Mentolo ASB : : Disastrous lather with the 1250; you cant : face lather with these things when they're : new, they just don't work well.

Schick Grip (tennis handle) injector New CVS blade generic badger brush Dove Got a just-a-tad-too-close shave from this combo today. The Grip, while having a newer head than most of my injectors, has a longer handle and has always given me trouble. My skin isn't burned, just shaved-so-close tight, which, for me, leads to bumps.

Good Tuesday morning all... '73 Superspeed w/ 7a.m. (4) Omega boar MB's Dublin Tweed ss Thayers Original WH w/ aloe Anherb a/s balm Speick a/s 1903 cologne That 7 a.m. is still working well, this time with some Mama Bear's glycerin based soap. I worked up the lather off the soap and went to the bowl and got my usual 2 plus passes as well as 2 passes for my head.

Lord Tech w/ 7 O'Clock Yellow (3) Simpson No.56 Best Badger Brush Floid Sandolor PSG Valobra Menthol S/S Alcolado Relampago A/S Jake's EDC Tried out a new aftershave today from the Shoebox. This one runs 70% alcohol and I think the rest is menthol. Warp's description says "Men of Menthol Take Note" and well we should. This is a very cooling aftershave. If any knows the English translation of "Relampago" I would be interested. The "Alcolado" part I figured out. --Previous Message-- : : Semogue 1250 : Connaught cooling : Merkur 1904 : Shark super chrome : Mentolo ASB : : Disastrous lather with the 1250; you cant : face lather with these things when they're : new, they just don't work well.

Razor: PAL Injector Adjustable Blade: Feather AC Pro, trimmed Soap : P.160 Brush: Mason Prototype Wash : Burt's Bees Deep Cleansing After: Thayer Original, Proraso Per/Post The PAL at the lowest setting was much more aggressive than yesterday's Schick adjustable. Lot's of edge feel, redness, and tender skin, but the shave was very close. I only tried for one shave, but I'm definitely going back to my Progress + AC blade. I think that's the best combo
