Soap: Westman - Dark Man
Razor: Frederick Reynolds Swayback
Post: Westman - Dark Man AS & Balm

Really loving this one, I caved and plumped for the EDT, fingers crossed it comes across as well as it does in the soap.

Think I might have to whip the stones out this weekend, the Swayback was feeling a little rough this morning. Still a decent finish but could do with a touch up.

Hope everyone has a grand one.

Cheers

First try of this soap company, soap is too soft for my liking, however the performance is top tier, lather takes some building but I enjoy that in a soap. Le Maurice continues to impress and Wilkinson Sword blades are a great pairing.

Mrs TC bought me this razor set years ago, it came with soap, blades and what looks like a badger/boar mix brush, its really does not look or feel like those plastic bristle heaps they are pushing now. Anyway i decided to give the razor a run out.
TBH i was quite surprised, it may sound and feel a bit "Tinny" but its done a fine job on my stubble.
3 passes for an easy comfortable BBS finish.
Enjoy the sunny weather all.

Smashing shave after getting up off night shift, the soap and attar both have oud as a scent with the attar also having a hashish profile. Warm sunny afternoon so off to mow the back lawn and get some stripes into it.

Lather - MWF

I’d forgotten I have some Eucris cream, which may have been a better fit for this hot weather. But the MWF did what MWF always does… perform beautifully. Great two pass shave, but I just kept polishing to a perfect BBS.

Some bottles of Stella in the fridge for Friday night. Woohoo!

Blade - Tatra #3
Soap - Gron Lycka Mr Cool
Brush- Yaqi Sagrada Familia
Post - Proraso Green lotion & balm

A super-cool shave was needed today - all day in the garden in between my night shifts.
Really like this soap - high quality lather with cooling menthol and the Tatra has performed exceptionally with the Rockwell. The Green Proraso twins finished things off with aplomb. A top shave that.
Have a great weekend all (if you're not working) and enjoy your shaves.
