Brush and soap:
J&T® Zebrano OUMO Brush SHD WT (Super High Density, White Tips) finest 2-band badger 24 mm and Martin de Candre Rose:
Roses this morning. With the J&T® Zebrano OUMO Brush SHD WT (Super High Density, White Tips) finest 2-band badger 24 mm from the Martin de Candre Rose a foam of the über class beaten. Man what tasty.
Blade and razor:
The Rapira Platinum Lux for the 7th x used.
The Rapira Platinum Lux continues great, tomorrow again and then he goes in the piggy bank, but still shaves like the best. In the Rockwell Razors 6s the Rapira Platinum Lux is fine, but in fact any usable blade...
Result: BBS.
Finally: full rose finish with the PeReJa Rose edc, Naturlife Krem Vazelin Gül Ve Aloevera Özlü and Rose Fernelle Provence et Nature Edt. Lovely. Tomorrow for the emotional balance again some Arko.
 
On another forums long time MWF users have problems with it. They think that most likely the hand soap got mixed with the shaving soap batch. It is only soaps that were acquired since March and April...
Nah, he's loading upside down.

Brush and soap:
Omega 20102 and Arko:
I read yesterday or so that there are people who throw that fine shaving Arko in the trash because of the smell. That's fine, because we can't like everything equally. One thing is for sure, they never know how well I soaped up this morning with the Omega 20102 and the rich Arko foam! Tomorrow I'll use a jar of MDC, that foams just as nicely, but not much better. The smell is a subject on which you can disagree, and certainly that of MDC is different and of a different class. However, a kilo of Arko costs a little over €11 and a kilo of MDC a little over €277....... and I'm getting smooth just as well.
Blade and razor:
The Rapira Platinum Lux for the 8th x used.
The Rapira Platinum Lux is disposed of with the old iron. 8x is enough. In the Above The Tie S1 another beautiful result with the Rapira Platinum Lux. However, it is sufficient, otherwise I'll never get through the stock. In any case still nice and comfortable smooth.
Result: BBS.
Finally: Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Kolonya Klasik Limon, Weleda Aftershave Balsam and Loris E-048 Cool Water on top. Gets a bit monotonous, just a few more days on the road and then I'll have the whole stock available again, although it's also good to do with what I have with me.
 
Tabac beard and shaving oil
M-keramiek scuttle
Omega 20102
Tabac shaving soap
Le grelot p hospital 30
Kabban 6/8
Vdh alum
Humphrey's cucumber mellon witch hazel
Tabac AS, Tabac balm

October first so I started with the tabac experience. The lather was good. I have to get used to the smell of the AS again.

The le grelot improved after the last session on the hones. I tested the kabban (i don't know the maker). It is shoulderless and very hollow so it quite noisy.

Have a fine day gentlemen.

This soap for me has a very light smell. I would like it to be stronger.

Shaving Soap/cream: TOBS Avocado
Shaving Brush: Proraso Omega

DE-Razor: Fatip OC Storto
DE-Blade: Perma-Sharp 3x

Aftershave: Espritde Valdemar Fougére

Again an open comb razor but that's completely unconscious because I don't participate in the playful actions of open comb or Tabac because the month starts with a certain letter. :nein1

Of course I like it for everyone who participates but after all I'm not a cow or any other herd animal. :kaputtlachen1:kaputtlachen1
