What do you use to take pics like that?

Just a photo tent. I bought one off AliExpress, nothing expensive but does a much better job. I'm also just using my cell phone to take the photos.

Thank you! I’ve always wondered how to take “retail like” photos

Great shave today. Pretty much spent the entire weekend working on the bathroom. Most of the shower tile is up besides some pieces that I need to rent a wet saw for. Probably going to take a day off work this week to get that done and hopefully knock out the flooring as well.

Menthol Monday
I tried Perma Sharp blades for the first time and it went well. I could tell these are pretty sharp, but the shave was smooth and easy. I only made one pass on my neck because it's still a little tender, but Reserve Cool calmed it right down.

Monday, April 23, 2018 - Shave of the Day

Brush  |  Maseto Shaving 'Memphis'
Soap  |  Sapone Di Paolo Agrume
Razor  |  Timeless / Astra SP
A/S  |  Sapone Di Paolo Agrume Balm

Picked this one up at a local Flea market about a week ago for under $20. Brand spanking new and took a fine edge. A 2 pass whisker removal that left me face finely chiseled. No jimps on the tang, but overall very nicely balanced, mild and a fine piece of steel for the $$$. Have a great day and shaves Gents....
