Fourth One Blade In Fruity February

Tonight’s decadent shave
RazoRock JAWS 0.84
Loi Titanium (1)
Damp facecloth aka “shave binky”
AP ShaveCo Dinosaur G5C 28mm synthetic brush
Pre-shave: warm showe
Lather: SV Cubebe sample, bowl-loaded; face-lathered
Aftershave: Ulm Nom
Post-shave: face wash with shave binky

Stayed kind of neutral barely favoring the cap for most of the shave and a little shallow on my upper lip. It was close, relaxingly smooth, and timely enough. Overall awesome shave. Fresh blade or SV Cubebe making the difference? I just know it was joyful.

Hello friends

Beautiful Saturday, here. Today I have my first shave of FFFMM 2024:

Greencult 2.0 plate II
Gillette Silver Blue (1)
SV Manna di Sicilia
Semogue SOC Mistura

An immense pleasure to return for an extremely efficient shave with a brand new blade.

As the only variable allowed will be the aftershave, I chose my favorite: Floïd The Genuine.

With us, on this incredible journey, Thad Jones and Mel Lewis.

Have a nice weekend and great shaves!

SV Saturday

Razor: RR Lupo 95 SB
Blade: Personna 74(31)
Brush: Yaqi Purple Haze
Soap: SV Opuntia
A/S: CK be
Post Shave: Proraso Green Balm, Nivea Hyaluron Gel

Tonight for SV Saturday I just randomly pulled out Opuntia when I was doing my picture this morning and just went with it. I lathered it with the Purple Haze, a brush I happen to love and got a fantastic lather in return. I loaded up the P74 in the Lupo as it is still giving satisfactory shaves with the EJ soap. With the SV it gave an epic shave for such an old blade. My face was glassy smooth whilst the tiny amount of roughness left on my neck was barely enough to mention.

Preshave: Hot washcloth
Soap: Saponificio Varesino Cubebe
Brush: Yaqi 24mm synthetic cashmere
Razor: GC.84 SB, Al Handle, Astra SP #2
Bowl: Turkish copper
Post-shave: Nivea 2-in-1 Aftershave

Used Cubebe for SV Saturday, getting a perfect bowl-lather. The Astra was smoother on shave two, for an easy near-BBS.

Dolomiti & La Faulx, What a Great Combo! Pure luxurious lather and super slick left me with a 3 pass BBS. I like Dolomiti scent alot.

Razor: Muhle R89
Blade: Personna 74(38)
Brush: Simpsons Trafalgar T3
Soap: SV 70th Anniversary
A/S: Clinique Happy For Men
Post Shave: Proraso Green Balm, Nivea Hyaluron Gel

Tonight for SV Saturday I pulled out 70th Anniversary, as it's my favourite, and the Trafalgar T3 which is a brush I haven't used in a while as it can be a bit springy. The lather was excellent as usual so I loaded up the P74 once again in the R41. The R41 is really making the blade work well for me. I think I will use it for the rest of this blades shaves. It left my face very smooth, though my neck wasn't totally smooth it was definitely good enough.

Hello friends

Rainy Saturday night around here. This fourth shave of FFFMM 2024 was an extremely pleasant event:

Greencult 2.0 plate II
Gillette Silver Blue (4)
SV Manna di Sicilia
Semogue SOC Mixture

GSB continues to excel in Greencult 2.0. It easily removed my 3 day beard. I finished with the classic from the 70s, Original Denim which reminds me a little of Aramis.

With us, to end the night magnificently, Lester Young and Oscar Peterson.

Have a nice Saturday evening and great shaves!

SV Saturday 9th March

Preshave: Hot washcloth
Soap: Saponificio Varesino Opuntia
Brush: Yaqi 24mm synthetic cashmere
Razor: GC.84 OC, Rockwell Handle, Astra SP #9
Razor: GC.84 SB, Ti Handle, Astra SP #2
Bowl: Turkish copper
Post-shave: Proraso Sensitive Balm

Used Opuntia for SV Saturday. I stayed with the dual Game Changers, for another easy near-BBS.

I'm liking the Proraso. It doesn't feel like anything special to apply, but once it's settled down, it's smooth, comfortable and not greasy.

SV Saturday

Razor: Muhle R41
Blade: Personna 74(45)
Brush: Yaqi Evil Zebra
Soap: SV Desert Vetiver
A/S: CK IN2U
Post Shave: Proraso Green Balm, Nivea Hyaluron Gel

Tonight for SV Saturday I went with the fresh scent of Desert Vetiver lathered with the Evil Zebra which hasn't seen much use lately. As for the razor I kept the R41 head and put the R89 Rose gold handle on it just to give it a cosmetic face lift as it is just a stunning handle. The 45th shave with the P74 was another great shave, the blade is still comfortable and performs well with just a little roughness left on my neck so no complaints.
