Stunning Steampunk August 2017 Shaving Highlight 2 of 4 This kit was inspired by ancient Korean warships, horological gears, classic instruments, and modern soap and aftershave. They were smooth shaves with rich lather and a firm razor that left my face feeling fresh and ready. My favorite sample was the Bay Rum. • Shaving Soap: @turtleship_shave_co samples: Bay Rum, Coconut, and Lime • Brush: @turtleship_shave_co Machine with a 24mm synthetic silvertip fiber knot • Razor: 1912 GEM Ever-Ready razor with a GEM by Personna blade • Aftershave/Cologne: @crumbcatcher1 Bay Rum & Leather • Bowl: @gravesco Dead Sexy Neapolitan bowl #traditionalshaving #classicshaving #wetshaving #wetshave #shavelikeaman #shaveoftheday #turtleshipshave #crumbcatcher #PhoenixArtisanAccoutrements #PAA #HTGAM #DouglasSmythe #SmytheSeptember #gravesco (at Los Angeles, California)

Cover Above, Smell Below July 2017 Shaving Highlight 2 of 4 This is the second of two JabonMan soaps I received in May 2017 from a FB group order initiated and skillfully managed by @nathanaeljohn . The earthy goodness with a slight note of shelled peanuts made for an enticing scent along with the slick performance. The aftershave felt and smelled great. I wish its scent lasted longer. As always, the brush was a great latherer and the razor was an efficient chopper. • Shaving Soap: JabonMan’s Tierra Humeda, Eufros • Brush: @envyshave Ltd. Ed.

Dark Coolness July 2017 Shaving Highlight 1 of 4 This is the first of two JabonMan soaps I received in May 2015 from a FB group order initiated and skillfully managed by @nathanaeljohn . It’s a comfortable and sweet smelling soap that matches Flowers in the Dark perfectly in performance and scent. The brush and razor were undoubtedly up to the task. @knockaround shades keep it nicely dark. • Shaving Soap: JabonMan’s Gea, Eufros Premium • Brush: @envyshave Ltd. Ed.

Summer 2017 Shaving Highlights: Bliss in Paradise - 4 of 5 June 2017 This kit was as comfortable as this above-the-water bungalow.
