Brush: Razorock 400 Aluminium Synthetic
Soap/Cream: Wickham 1912 LE Bleu
Aftershave Balm: Bulldog Sensitive

Absolutely nailed the lather this morning, not difficult with Wickham soaps I know. The combo skated to another rewarding drama free BBS, 9/10. We're meeting a couple of good friends this evening, so treated myself to special smellies.

Happy shaves.

Regards,
Chris

Timeless Razor question.

Hi All, Can someone please help, is there anyone out there that owns a Timeless 0.95 or 0.68 (stainless or Ti) straight or scalloped bar & a Rockwell 6s that could compare the 2 Timeless baseplates to the equivalent feeling or aggression to a Rockwell R plate rating? I never use R1 & R2. Mainly...

When entering the bakery this morning the almond scent of almond macaroons welcomed me.

No surprise that the still warm treats went home with me..

And only one soap could be in my set up today, the Sapone da Barba Vegetale alla Mandorla. And yes, like the macaroons, lathered up warm in the scuttle.

Three passes, quick splash Floïd Suave and some Buldog Balm and I was O so ready for my morning coffee !

Have a nice day everyone.

What a shame!
I got up very late and, after a proper brunch, I got to work for you.
A gear experimented in many variations, but... six of one, half a dozen of the other.

All those who seek, in vain, to match my photos, must know that the absence of the EdT is not due to the fact that I forgot it and had too much back ache to go fetch it, but to a precise stylistic choice!

With this spring day I wanted a cheerful music and Artie (we’re on a first name basis) has been up to my desires.





Sapone PS: Valobra Mandorla
Sapone: Castelbel, Portus Cale
Pennello: Zenith, Silvertip, 26 mm
Rasoio: Gillette, Slim Aristocrat, 1963
Lametta: Gillette, 7 O’Clock, Super Stainless

Seems a long time since I used this OC Razor. Fortunately it would appear that I without any problems got the Shave angle right, so no mishaps. Perhaps I needed a bit more work on the R/H cheek but overall the quality of finish was not too bad. This is one for the rotation in future.
