Face Shave
Razor: Karve SS Overlander
Blade: Astra SP
Brush: DG Dumb Courage B13
Soap: B&M Melange

This setup made for a fantastic face shave. Melange is a cinnamon-forward scent that I enjoyed using. B13 is a luxurious knot and I love the pour on this one.

Head Shave
Razor: Karve SS Overlander
Blade: Astra SP
Brush: TNS L5 Fan
Soap: B&M Petrichor

Man, I really love the smell of damp earth. This soap nails that scent. Finished the head shave with the matching balm and HOM Alive EDP.

POMP is so good!!!!! I wish they would stock it again so I could get a backup and the splash.

After being spurred on by MarkB to pick Ethos Shave MD soap andSplash for today's shave I figured I'd use the Lutin Brush acquired from Mark (Shave MD) and then complete the ensemble by using the Weck Med Prep Razor. I didn't intend it to be an afternoon shave but my FIL decided to add the ER to the ensemble at 6:30 so took him there before I had a shave or coffee. He's being treated and getting transferred to Lexington VA now to get his dialysis and follow up for a few days on the Pneumonia and Congestive Heart Failure. They say whenit rains it pours but no one ever says when the pouring stops.......Great shave with a great set up and hope all have a great day !

Thoughts going out to your FIL. Hope he gets better soon. I lost my dad last December. He was going through the same stuff; dialysis, pneumonia, etc. My brother and sister, we were fortunate enough to get to spend one last Christmas with him.

Great-looking brush!! That's a very nice memento.
Thank you Mark and my Condolences to you Sir

I hope things go well for your Father in Law Dave. Pneumonia is no joke. 

I didn’t know that brush was from Mark.  Very nice.

Thanks Frank

Her back was to us but when she turned around it was that young handcuffed girl from two years ago and time had treated her very well!  Well, because I “got game” I made a date for that evening and ditched the boys for a steak at the Broken Arrow accompanied by a pretty lady.  I wore Polo Green that night.  We had an incredible evening and made a date for a couple of weeks later in her home town of Helena.  Let me tell you, a four hour drive is a long way to go for a date but she told me to pick her up at the ranch and she’d show me the town.  Ranchers huh?  Those were my kind of people so when the day arrived and I drove to the ranch I was confused and couldn’t find it so I stopped and called and she told me I was less than half a mile away!  Well, her “ranch” was about a hundred acres which in my world was a hobby farm.  Turns out this was what they had left after selling the ranch.  This was the headquarters.  Well, we dated all summer and she came back down to school and after 6 whole months we wed.  Five kids, 16 grands and the best in-laws one could ask for and it looks like after 36 years of marriage we just might make it work!  And she still likes my Polo Green the best.  This Stirling isn’t an exact match but it sure is a good starting place to apply some vintage Polo juice.

Lipp reminded me of both Stirling's goodness and the beauty of green scents. Polo Green [vintage] was my go to when I was young and had hair. And now Green Irish Tweed is a common reach when I get that yearning. Not as GOOD as Polo Green, very different, but nice.
