My cell phone camera sucks, but I used Aqua Velva today, with a Proraso sandalwood cream, and GSB blade in my Muhle rosegold R89. That was a lot of lather, enough for probably 4 passes if I had used that many!

Sunday

Prep: Hot Shower-Stirling Bath Soap
Soap: Los Angeles Shaving Soap-Woody Lavender
Razor: Gillette Slim
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (1)
Brush: Whipped Dog Silvertip-22mmx48mm
Aftershave: Pino Silvestre AS & EdT

WTG-XTG-ATG (adjusted angle for my beard a bit)


I wanted to follow up the last MdC shave with the LASS Woody Lavender. LASS soaps are excellent and can hold their head high against MdC. I really like the Woody Lavender scent (and the lower price relative to both MdC and the other LASS soaps). I finished up with Pino.

Gentlemen,

Here in NE Ohio, the second week of April finally brought Spring weather with it. I hope the rest of you are breaking free of the long Winter as well. Last weeks IOTW, cheap soaps and creams, drew a lot of attention. This week, it's drugstore aftershaves. My favorite, Speick, may be a drugstore aftershave in its native Germany, but I'm not sure it qualifies in Ohio. This being a truly international forum, I plan to break mine out this week. For today, it's a cheap, but high quality face chiller: Barbasol Pacific Rush

I just bought some of this yesterday for just $1.75 at a Dollar General and really like it.
