Well you should be good for the New years shave. Have a good one!

**Prince** · 12-24-2007, 09:32 AM

Arko shaving soap
Tweezerman Pure badger
Gillette Red Tip SS with Persona blade
Pinaud Bay Rum

I know this is a cheap setup, but it gives a great shave.

Total cost is less than $30 for all this.

**Androclese** · 12-24-2007, 09:54 AM

OK I'm posting this in advance since I usually shave in the evening. I don't have a digital camera so I'll have to wait to post pictures

Col. Conks Almond Soap
Murkur Futur razor
Feather New Hi Stainless Platinum Coated Blades
Vulfix pure badger brush
T.N. Dickinsons Witch Hazle
Col. Conk's Bay Rum Aftershave - Cologne
Nivea for Men Energy AS Cooling Balm with Menthol

Everything on the list is new except for the Col. Conk's products. Since this is officially my second DE shave and the first with the new razor and blades, the Nivea is there in case of emergencies. If I have to use it, I don't think I'll be using my old stand by (Col. Conk's Bay Rum AS) since I can't imagine the scents of the two products working together at all.

All of my post shave stuff has alcohol in it... Oh well I have a high tolerance to pain... I think.

...

Ok shaves over...

Ack one cut or so on my neck, same place as when I tried my Dad's Gillette. A little no nick and all is well. I'm going for the Bay Rum Baby....
