YARN | Are you wearing Brut? | Wayne's World 2 (1993) Music | Video clips  by quotes | 1553f42e | 紗
 
I have brut 33, old spice and imperial leather. Only the expensive stuff lol
What you actually have are bottles of rubbing alcohol with synthetic scent enhancers. Dries your skin out and makes you smell like Ben Gay.🤣🤣

Good point I have isopropyl alcohol I might just use that mixed with some cigarette butts and stale beer. I call it man about town.
 
1956 Gillette Red Tip Super Speed with a brand new Gillette Platinum blade.

Barrister and Mann Fougere Gothique soap topped off with B&M DFS splash

I have 2 Muhle razors. A standard and an open comb. I also have the cheapest silver tail brush I could find. For at least 10 years I tried a bunch of different blades, and I recently found the Muhle blades to be really good. Now that my beard is about 50% gray, I realized I need good blades to cut through without irritation. I really only shave 1 or 2 times a week to keep the cpap from leaking. The open comb excels at weeklong stubble and back shaves.

I used the Muhle green soap for a few years but I then discovered the Speick products. https://www.speick.de/en/products/care-series/men.html

I like both the creme and the shaving stick / soap. My son's and I use the after shave also. Good stuff and not overpowering. I had my pharmacist sister look into the speick plant and history and it is pretty interesting stuff. It has been used for centuries to help people chill.
 
Last week I got 100 Gillette Platinums ( The good ones, Russian ) for $15 on Amazon. You have to be careful on Amazon with blades because all the good ones like Gillette Platinums and Feather Hi-Stainless are heavily faked, but there are ways to tell by the packaging and/or the writing on the blade itself. And when you find trusted sellers remember who they are.

I haven't been shaving really as I'm fully bearded now for the winter, but I keep a 40s NDC super speed with a Feather and a small tin of PAA Cad handy for touching up above and below my beard line.

The beard's pretty gray and by now I look as old as @Thumbpicker. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:
 
@Floyd Eye can you PM me a link to those Gillette blades? I really liked the trial pack I got of those and want to get a small stock of them.

I got four bottles of Speick for my birthday. It's nicer that the cheap stuff I normally use like Old Spice and Brut 33 (cause I'm cheap) without being excessively expensive. Also Speick first came about in 1930s Germany so it's a master aftershave ;-)
