What's new

SOTD 10/8-10/14" October Photography SOTD Event".

  • Merkur 38C with IP
  • Chubby 1 in Super
  • SCS unidentified "pay it forward" soap. It's blue and very fragrant :thumbup1:
  • Aqua Velva
  • Trumper Coral Skin Food
I've now tried the Chubby with every soap I own except the new Conk sent to me when I bought it. That's up next on "the lathering block". The Chubby has broken in nicely over the last two plus weeks and hasn't lost a hair yet. Love the brush. I did use B&B 2006 once within the last two weeks with some Musgo cream as I was doing a morning shave after an early evening shave the day before - wanted some cushion.
 
40s Aristocrat w/Feather (1)
Rooney S3S1Super
Mitchell's Wool Fat SS
Aqua Velva Blue AS

Well, I tried my hardest to find a replacement for the Feathers, but was unsuccessfu. Best shave I've had in a couple of weeks. With the exception of a tiny bit of irritation on my neck (my fault), a perfect shave!

Vulfix 2235 Super
J M Fraser's Shaving Cream
Acqua Di Parma Aftershave balm

This is the first time I have tried the ADP aftershave balm. It is alcohol free, so it went on with minimal stinging. Left my skin soft, supple and really calmed the little bit of razor burn I had on my chinline. A great shave today!
BTW, the Fraser's cream is really, really good, which makes up for the scent .....not my favorite.
