Shave of the Day Thread - 2018

[sealer]

My last shavings. Intense week, trying to show to some of my bosses that I am performing, while others are extremely happy for my late fieldwork (completely unrelated to my phd... xD )

I use in both a vintage blade made in UK courtesy of @glenos. Really smooth and gentle (as one could think of an old Briton gentleman).

and

(both pictures took after today shave)

Both are remarkable, as the scents and quality of products used too!!

Pre: Hot shower
Brush: YAQI synthetic
Razor: Merkur 34c hd
Blade: Lara's (4)
Soap: B&M Seville
Splash: B&M Seville

Great shave today and one of those eureka moments to boot.

Usually I would use "Trishave anti rash preshave" underneath my lathers and I never really understood what everyone was talking about by the "post shave feel" of a quality soap.

The last two shaves with B&M Seville I've abstained from the (Cheap Woolies) pre-shave and my word, the difference in the post shave is astounding.

Very DFS after two passes and looking forward to meeting the Melbourne lads later today.

back to real life....

machine: SSSeygus extrem oc prototype
blade: Wilkinson vintage mad ein UK
brush: romera manchurian
soap: Sudsy Delor de Treget
splash: ChatLux Delor de Trget
salve: chatLux Delor de Treget

Terrific! The blade was a bit bad in her third shave, but on the first she just mowed 12 days of beard, I can understand.... I wanted some extra for the skin so that combo was the ONe for today.
Had a good weekend mates!
