Another great shave using ProRaso. I can't say enough about these soaps. They are absolutely the best bang for the buck for any wet shaver, especially if you buy them in Italy for a little more than $2 a tub.

I love the powdery scent of the whole ProRaso line, and the aftershave splash is superb.

Black & White. A filmic Western reference. The time on the clock was random. Didn't notice it until hours later when I went to process the raw DNG on my computer.

And, what of the poor Wee Scot trapped in the pill jar? Also, quite random.

Maggard Limes & Bergamot today. Great scent, great soap. I loaded the oscar11 for 20 seconds and got enough great lather for 3+ passes. I put a new Voskhod in the Slim. Great smooth, close, nick free shave. I finished with Fine Platinum.

Have a good day Gents!

Another great shave using ProRaso. I can't say enough about these soaps. They are absolutely the best bang for the buck for any wet shaver, especially if you buy them in Italy for a little more than $2 a tub.

I love the powdery scent of the whole ProRaso line, and the aftershave splash is superb.

Wonderful photos gentlemen!!!
 
Razor - Louis French SE
Blade - GEM
Soap - Wickham SS Imperial Tonic
Brush - Simpsons Wee Scot Badger
EDC - No. 4711

Trying out the French SE razor using the GEM blade in place of the proprietary wedge blade. The shave was extremely close, so much so that I nicked myself twice but that said I don't feel much irritation, so it's not as aggressive as I thought it might be.

Have not worn the 4711 for sometime and it makes for a pleasant change.

Enjoy your evening/day Gents! :D
