And then it poured with rain.
 


Pre: DR Harris Coconut Bar, Myrsol Emulsion
Brush: Semogue Owners Club Boar
Soap: Haslinger Schafmilch
Razor: Merkur Futur (2)
Blade: German Shick (1)
Post: Myrsol Emulsion
EDP: APR Suitably Attired Australian
Traveling again - this time a long way from home. Whilst the photo shows the Schick Premium (Wilkie Classic) plastic fantastic razor, I changed my mind at the last moment and loaded up my Futur. Three comfortable passes for a DFS+ with no claret. The audible feedback from the German Schick blade was really loud; I’d rate it as a good all-rounder blade. Didn’t get me as class as other combos, but quite smooth and no nicks or weepers. Flying the flag for Aussie products over here with the APR fragrance.

I'm trying to workout where you are @TomG , looks like a beautiful European city. Have fun!

Brush: SJoL Silvertip
Razor: Eclipse Red Ring
Blade: Minx (5)
Cream: Ingrams
A/S: B&M Reserve Cool

Been a few ears since I last used an Eclipse. Must say it's just as I remembered it, very efficient but awkward in my hand. Not sure if it's a keeper or not at this stage.
Looks in great shape mate - especially for $15 !! Bargain of the year (y)

PAA PRE SHAVE SOAP
GUERRILLA
VOSKHOD
26MM HIGH MOUNTAIN WHITE FAN
MYSTIC WATER BARBERSHOP
FINE AMERICAN BLEND SPLASH

3rd shave with the guerrilla and honesty can't fault it. Love the low profile head, love the fat handle and have had no issues with it being slippery when wet. And most important love the shave it gives. Perfect balance of efficiency and smoothness.

The soap, one of the best i've used. Out of all the barbershop soaps i've encountered Michelle's version would have to be my favorite. Its a bloody ripper!

Pre: Warm Coconut Oil
Soap: Pb Lemon Myrtle, Lanolin & Wormwood
Brush: Omega Boar 10048
Razor: Brass General
Blade: Feather Pro Super (1)
Post: Jojoba/essential oil mix
Shaved with the General yesterday but it was rubbish. I had forgotten the blade count, but the blade had run it's course. Ended up cleaning up with a DE. Changed blade in the General for this morning and got a great shave. LMLW soap very pleasant. @Snooze , is that Tabac soap different to the shave stick Tabac Brush Deodoriser I have?:) Have I done myself a disservice? Should I pull out the Tabac and give it go?
