How Do Speedy,
I tried to PM you, however, you have it disabled.
Just a heads up, its SE Safety razors only on TOST3.
A snapped unmentionable blade is OK, classed as a SHaDE & "makers name"
Everything else is classed as an unmentionable.

Fuzzy is likely to chuck a brick

I got a sample of A&E Ouddiction (Honey Oud) from a friend I've mine I had lunch today from lodge, this soap is a MUST! have in the den is great for Autumn and Winter season.

I know most wet shavers aren't a fan of cinnamon, because, too much cinnamon can give you allergic reaction or bad irritation on the skin so you need to be extra careful.

This soap A&E Ouddiction (Honey Oud) has a touch more cinnamon than the Declaration Grooming Massacre of the Innocents (milksteak base), the Ouddiction scent opens up with cinnamon, vanilla and honey. I can smell all together with a light rose with sandalwood, honey, oud and vanilla, then I get the spicy cinnamon scent in the background with Tobacco, Bergamot and Patchouli. This is a very warm and wonderful mid-dark scent for Autumn and Winter season, and the BEST part about this soap is also FANTASTIC! combination together with a great drink of a nice triple belt of Sailor Jerry Spice Rum which has vanilla and oak with hints of clove and cinnamon spices.


PS. @Tony'schin maybe I don't have enough post count yet to be able to receive a PM, I didn't bloody know this forum is SE Safety razors only on TOST3.

Thursday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Proraso Shaving Cream Sensitive
SlimGem Silvertip Badger
GEM-LP 3d Printed Razor
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Pinaud Lilac Vegetal AS

The Proraso Shaving Cream Sensitive was applied with the SlimGem Silvertip Badger brush. One pass and touch ups with the GEM-LP 3d Printed Razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Lilac Vegetal AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I had quite a noce shave witht the Enders Speed Shaver and a Schick Proline B20 today.
So far I'm not overly impressed with Mitchell's wool fat. Initial lather seemed great and sickness is very good but the lather falls apart quickly.

29/01/21
Vintage Month - Razor #29
Pre: Shower
Brush: Edwin Jagger Medium
Soap: Faena Dorica
Razor: Rolls Razor - Stainless set 1935
Edge By: @Tony'schin
Post shave: Alum, Cold water Rinse,  TC's infused Witch Hazel
Balm: Barts Balm Cinnamon & Patchouli Balm & Lotion
Aftershave: Williams Formula 1 original

I am always a bit apprehensive when i plan to use one of my Rolls kits, no need really.
This kit i adopted from another forum member and it is the most comprehensive set i have, it includes an addressed "thank you for your purchase" letter from Rolls Razors to the original owner in 1935.
I completed a "Pyramid" refresh of this blade on the 5K, 8K & 12K hones then gave it 100 laps on the box strop.
A fantastic bowl lather with the little EJ badger and the Faena soap, plenty slick goodness for the shave. The brush is quite "Floppy" but using just the tips you get a nice scritch on the face when loading, then face paint - lovely.
I found the angle pretty much straight away and off i went, very smooth WTG and XTG with a little cutting indication when going ATG but not uncomfortable.
I completed 3 full passes for a DFS++ result, nothing from the Alum rub and feeling real comfortable.
A nice post shave with a last minute change to the Williams Splash - it just seemed right?

Stay safe and enjoy your day All.
