No. I don’t need anymore soaps, otherwise, I would end up being a bloody baby lamb chop during the pandemic.

I had to stock up the tallow Tabac before they disappeared forever, before, the vegan version might bloody kill me.

Is that your girlfriend on TV @rhodes96 she been a nasty sexy old swag.

Last few shaves

Brush: Alpha Shaving Brushes T-400 24mm Silvertip
Razor: Merkur 37C // Timeless Bronze SB
Blade: Gillette Nacet (5) // Astra Blue (4)
Pre: Shower
Soap: P&B Spitfire
Post: Nivea Sensitive Post Shave Balm // P&B Spitfire solid cologne
WTG, ATG, Touchups = DFS

A crappy end to the week as received my first shot of the vaccine and have felt like crap including a few hours in Emergency but thankfully no signs of anything serious and Covid-19 free. Add to that some annoying allergies and lockdown but things could always be worse.

At least the last few shaves have been positive using this setup as the soap performs great and the scent has certainly grown on me... :)

Stay Safe & Happy Shaves!

What a boss move! Shaving with two razors at once, one in each hand. Kudos. 😁

Soap: P&B Iceni
Brush: Matilda
Razor: Eclipse Red Ring
Blade: Nacet (1)
AS: Pb Bay LIme
I was looking forward to this shave but by the time I’d finished my face had lit up like the Milky Way. Trip to Weeperville. I checked the history to see if I’d grabbed the wrong blade but Nacet is the blade I’ve had plenty of good shaves with this razor so…¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Haha with my shaking hands there's no chance but been super lazy posting and used the same gear the last few shaves, only swapping the razor for something different and the Timeless Bronze SB shaves fairly mild like the 37C. :)

Maybe it's just a dud blade. [Sh]it happens. Or maybe you're just having a bad hair day... :p

I love tallow Tabac, I’m very cautious about being chased by the sexy old swag, because, I’m not at their age bracket, I’m only one year away from the top of the mountain before I go back down again soon.

It might not be commonly known, but ladies get more beautiful as they get older. Maybe just a little attitude adjustment required... :)

I rather walk down the mountain instead of skiing, too early for my graveyard

Edit:- Do you realise we pay too much bloody taxes going up the bloody mountain.

I don't really have too much of a problem with how much tax I pay. I just object when those ... just piss that money against the wall for pork-barreling, self-aggrandizement, lining the pockets of their friends, or for just sheer, plain nastiness for the sake of it. :mad: And yes, that applies to both major parties.

Pre: Hot Shower, Nivea Skin & Stubble
Brush: Yaqi
Soap: A&E Turkish Coffee
Razor: Razorock Lupo 95
Blade: King C Gillette (3)
Post: Nivea Skin & Stubble, Aloe Vera

This is the 2nd time I used the Turkish Coffee. The first time I used it I felt a burning sensation above my upper lip but I attributed that to wind burned sensitive skin and didnt think much about it. Today, lathering up my face, I felt the burning again on a part of my chin where I had recovering acne. I thought, this can't be right. Nevertheless I did my first pass and lathered up for 2nd. I felt the burning now above my upper lip and the same acne bit. It seems like my skin is extra sensitive to this soap in parts where it's had "trauma". The other parts of my face were fine. In light of this, I have to let the soap go. Up it goes on the BST. Pity, as I had dialed in the lather and got a 2 pass DFS+.

A little achey after yesterday's second jab (fortunately nowhere near as bad as the first) so a fine excuse for a bit of pampering...
