Good Afternoon!
~08/20/2012~

Semogue 1438 \\ Merkur HD w/ Red IP \\ 3P Pre Per E Post Barba \\ TBS Maca Root SC \\ Nivea Replenishing Post Shave Balm

So I have moved to a new place living with close friends. Although I don't have all my shaving items here, I can change them when visiting home every week. But at least I do have two brushes and couple SS/SC which it easier for me instead of always thinking what I am going to use. Any who today's shave was a great start to the week. I hope you all have a wonderful day Friends!

P.S. - Believe it or not before editing, I took this pic with my iPhone 4S. Picture came out very clear although it was taken from a phone!

Good morning!

My shave ritual on Tuesday consisted of some of my most used hard- & software with the exception of the razor blade, which was a new brand I was given to try out. It is the store brand “TiP” of German supermarket chain “real.-“. Rumors have it they are the rebranded (or actually ‘unbranded’) Platinum Chrome blades from Personna. Nothing is printed on the blades other than arrows.

The set-up around the new blade was:

Musgo Real pre shave oil
Calani Dubai shave soap
Mühle Basic Nr. 02 shave brush with Silver Tip Fibre
Merkur Futur on 3
TiP real.- DE blade (new)
Bloc Osma Alum
D.R. Harris Bay Rum after shave

Not a bad shave at all, I must admit. I did notice the difference of this blade to my customary Feather blade, especially as I was mowing down 4 days worth of stubble. That usually does not pose resistance to the Feather, I felt however a wee bit of tugging with this TiP blade on the first pass. I am curious to see feel how this particular blade will perform the rest of this week in the face of 'normal daily' stubble.
