In contrast to last week's theme, this week we would love to see your exciting pics with some degree of blur. This can be the whole photo or just certain areas like the periphery. Please show us your skills here, or it could be simply down to some thing else!!:a54:

Good morning


Monday’s shave, have to be back to work again. Stubble felt very wiry and tough (most likely just my own perception but who am I to judge my stubble…):



Pre-shave treatment 1:

Logona Mann shave cream pre shave lather, left it to soak the stubborn stubble for about 5 full minutes. Followed up then by one of my favourite set-ups:
Musgo Real pre shave oil
Calani Dubai shave soap
Mühle Basic Nr. 02 shave brush with Silver Tip Fibre
Merkur Futur (first pass on a setting of 2.5 and second pass on a setting of 3)
New Feather FH-10 blade
Bloc Osma Alum
D.R. Harris Bay Rum after shave


The Futur has established itself as one of my rotation’s favourites; I am SO keeping this one!

Wishing all of you a great week ahead!
 
Monday morning:

*Warm water
*Jaguar 2003 - Boar
*Arko Regular SC - mug lathering
*Rotbart OC - Rotbart extra dünn (Germany) (4) - W+ATG
*Warm water
*Cold water
*Allume di Rocca Naturale as pre AS (1 min.)
*Cold water
*Hâttric Classic


Unbelievable how much creamy lather I can make with that Jaguar 2003 shaving brush in my mug. The size of an almond nut of the Arko regular SC was more than enough for 5 to 6 passes. You like it huge, go turkish with Jaguar 2003 and Arko shaving cream. :thumbup:
