Wax or glue it's a pig to shift once it's stuck to a razor.

@Nightguard when you clean the razor under the hot tap before placing a fresh new blade, the wax get melted away clean very easy and quick not glue.

Not always. I can assure you of that.

Shaving Brush: Silvertip Hair Epsilon Butterscotch
Shaving Soap: Santtu (Sandalwood) Razor Master
Razor: Merkur 37C
Blade: Stainless Gillette 7 O’clock

Great looking shave Juan! That Sandalwood soap from Finland looks really good. How is the scent? Strong? What kind of sandalwood?

Oh! Have you shaved with the Myrsol Shave cream yet? What's the performance like?

It's going back today [emoji17] along with my X3 slant. I did just cave and order a Wolfman though.

They are sometimes stickier than any glue...and they seem to love nice shiny razors

Felt like getting my chill on the other night, So I took out the every so icy Arctique. Almost had me in tears - with the quality of the lather

 

[chingy17]

Used my Razorock Synthetic for the first time as well this week! Whipped up a fierce lather and felt really really good on the face. Thanks to some of the members here for their recommendation

@filobiblic - I was going to ask Juan the same thing. I'm loving the Toivo Pine Tar from the same range; I suspect that they will come up with a very robust sandalwood scent.

 

[TomG]

Pre-Shave: Too early even for a Darwin beer
Razor: Slim
Blade: I honestly don't know. I think it might be an Aussie Spolier
Soap/Cream: Godrej Menthol (with Lanolin)
Brush: Omega 10005
AS: Aqua Velva
Post-Routine: Finish shower. Get dressed, have coffee. Put the kid in the bike trailer, and ride him over to childcare.

Trying to finish off this Godrej, but even using an @Osman amount of soap it's lasting longer than I would imagine.

Cracked a beer yet, Eggs?

Cracked a beer yet, Eggs?

Had iso 9001 and as/nzs 4801 audits today. As soon as the auditer was out the door I cracked the first. Then I went down the pub.

Struth! Hope the Auditor wasn't wearing surgical gloves and holding a torch?
