Brush and soap:
J&T® Zebrano OUMO Brush SHD WT (Super High Density, White Tips) finest 2-band badger 24 mm and TOBS (Taylor of Old Bond Street) Sandalwood:
Nice woody shave again this morning. Bit back into the normal rhythm, nice lather whipped with the J&T® Zebrano OUMO Brush SHD WT (Super High Density, White Tips) finest 2-band badger 24 mm and TOBS (Taylor of Old Bond Street) Sandalwood. That soap is just good as always. Nice bowl of firm foam and a lusciously filled bun. So that was nice firm lather on the head!
Blade and razor:
The Gillette Nacet Stainless (Russia) used for the 5th time.
The Gillette Nacet Stainless (Russia) has easily met my 5 standard, but I had no doubt about that, as this blade is fine for me, both for the bald head, and nice and smooth cheeks and throat. The Fatip Piccolo Special Edition (OC) with the Gillette Nacet Stainless is a foolproof combo. Nice shaving in the well foamed stubble.
Result: BBS.
Finally: topping off with Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Tütün TFS, Crazy Sandalwood ASB and Loris So Oud makes me smell beautifully like Oriental wood.
 
Prep
M-keramiek scuttle
Zenith boar brush
Arko shaving soap
Mühle Rocca R94 + Tiger platinum #2
Proraso alum
Humphrey's cucumber mellon witch hazel
Pitralon original AS, de vergulde hand balsem

The tiger behaves like a carbon blade. It feels like it is dragging, but in the end I'm cleanly shaven and there is no alum sting. It's like the treet carbon or black beauty.

Brush and soap:
Vie-Long Epsilon White Horse Hair "Fan Shape" 27mm and Speick Active Rasiercreme:
Using the Vie-Long Epsilon White Horse Hair "Fan Shape" 27mm, the waning tube of Speick Active Rasiercreme produced nice lather. The tube is really running out. Good stuff, but I am more of the hard soaps. The Speick does produce a very nice caring lather!
Blade and razor:
The Gillette Nacet Stainless (Russia) for the 6th time used.
The Gillette Nacet Stainless (Russia) does its job just fine. Smooth all around and no irritation. So still nice on cut. In the Mulcuto Schrägschnitt (metal) each blade shaves quite well and with the Gillette Nacet Stainless (Russia) it is a good combination. It can't get much better than this.
Result: BBS.
Finally: bit funny completion with Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Kolonya Klasik Limon, Weleda Aftershave Balsam and Myrsol "Don Miguel 1919" After Shave. A mishmash that goes nicely together.

SE- razor: Feather Professional Artist Club DX
SE- blade: Feather Professional Blade 2x

Aftershave: Striling Orange Chill

Now that the temperatures are going to arctic values today a soap to get used to the cold a little bit already.;)
 
Friday morning’s Grand Freeze:

Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/Astra Green day 12
Stirling Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo SS
Stirling Glacial Unscented ASB
Krampert’s Frostbite AS Splash
Bleu de Chanel EdP

Has anyone ever tried shaving with their eyes almost closed? That’s what could happen if you use any of these Glacial soaps. This Eskimo Tuxedo has the exact same gorgeous scent as the Sharp Dressed Man - it’s based on Creed’s Green Irish Tweed, the lather works up so rich, slick, and creamy with a menthol sensation that hits like a ton of icy cold bricks, but you get a wonderful, soothing postshave feeling. The Glacial Unscented balm and the Krampert’s Frostbite aftershave keep the freeze going for a couple of hours. Three passes gave me a brilliant BBS shave that was so pleasurable!

Have a great weekend - stay healthy and safe!
