Santa Maria Novella Shave Cream
Truefitt & Hill 1805 Aftershave Balm
Proraso Aftershave Splash

SMN is different than Proraso/CO Bigelow. I'm convinced of that after only two shaves with it. It smells similar, but that's where the similarity ends. The protection/moisturizing/lubrication it delivers is far and away better for me than its cheaper cousins. I don't know that I'd drop $50 for a tub, though.

This has been my shave of the month so far.

Hey Gentlemen,
Here is my shave for the day! Was so enamored with this shave that I forgot to put on aftershave, so none today.

Breakdown of today's shave:
Cream: Proraso (obviously)
Razor: 1960 Gillette 195 adjustable "fat boy"
Blade: Astra super platinum (as box shows. Wow what a difference from the Walgreens blades!)
Brush: unknown badger (?) from Uncle. (I normally use a cheap VanderHagen boar brush, but got this from my brother who has gone full beard)

B&B Essential Brush
Red Pack Personna
Gillette 3-piece black-handled W1 1976
Green Mountain #10 formula
Nautica aftershave splash

Nice shave for choir practice tonight and very good timing for my 2000th post at the wonderful Badger and Blade.

**woodsrider** · 10-14-2009, 04:58 PM

Wednesday:

Simpson PJ3 Super
Taylor of Old Bond Street Mr. Taylors cream
Muhle R89 with Gillette "Swede" blade
Thayer's Rose Witch Hazel w/ alcohol
Clinique Post-Shave Healer
Knize 10 EdT

The Taylor's is a nice cream, particularly at its price point. Mr. Taylors is a great complement to woody and leathery fragrances.
