Friday morning:

Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/Shark day 6
RVT Green Fields SS
Prep ASB
Alt Innsbruck AS Splash

I think I’m starting to detect a bit of dullness from the Shark blade - not very much but it’s definitely lost a little sharpness and I noticed it as soon as I began my shave. The Green Fields soap’s delightful peppermint scent filled my bathroom, the lather literally buried my face, and the cooling sensation felt great. I gave myself a good face massage with the Prep which felt heavenly, and the Alt Innsbruck was the perfect finish. Two passes gave me a great BBS shave so no complaints!

Have a nice weekend!
 
M-Keramiek scuttle
Proraso brush
Leresche Citadin Limineux
Rasozero Barbacco
VDH aluin
Thayer's witch hazel
CHH Tobacco, Balea ultrasensitive balsem

The rasozero gives a nice lather. The Leresche is loud and mild.

AP Shave Co Synbad 30 mm
Australian Private Reserve - Mycroft
Tatara Nodachi
Gillette Rubie (1)
Humprey’s Astringent
Myrsol 1919 Don Carlos + Emulsion

The best shave with the Nodachi so far: very close and comfortable! The Rubie is a nice blade which performs good in the Nodachi. And this Myrsol Splash fits good with the APR soap.
I think I have to order new Rubie blades and more Myrsol splashes.

So a this was a relaxing Saturday shave. Have a good day!

You can feel the slightly bigger gap with the open comb, but it was, with this blade combination, a fine and smooth shave. Slightly more efficient.

Have a nice day!

The Eufros is a sample I got from @Snuff and reminds a bit of Le Pere Lucien - Rose de Pushkar, although where that is a more sweet decent rosy smell, this is stronger and more towards the Oud, which makes it a very nice smelling soap. I like it.
Merkur heads are always good.
