TSF Special's take on tea and biscuits is spot on. There's no depth to it, just pure gourmand.

Primidi 11 Thermidor an 233 de la Révolution, jour de Panic – Also: Zingari Zischtig


Day of Panic! In the shave-den on this lovely thermidor day. Morning shave, which is inhabitual. My head is doing better, and I'm always happy when I use Mousse Illuminée.

Have a good day!

Please tell us whether stropping is better ona live cow or a live horse

I didn't strop on any of the animals, so I can't speak to their respective stropability, but they tasted great!

Tub Kill!! 🚨🚨🚨🚨

I had this tub for 4.06 years. I think I bought it with a gift card that was my 2021 Lather Games prize.

  • Brush: AP Shave Co. black clear handle w 30 mm Tuxedo Fan knot
  • Razor: Ever-Ready 1912 SE
  • Blade: Personna GEM PTFE
  • Lather: E&S Rasage - Shaman
  • Post-Shave: Lavera Men sensitive ASB
  • Passes & Info: 1 pass head & face around goatee; not very close nor comfortable

Trimmed my goatee really short so I also had to shave around it; unfortunately I paid with some redness/razor burn on the face for it. I guess the blade is at the end of its life cycle.

Shaman was really cool though, yet another nice tobacco scent with some fruity and woody notes. I really enjoy the new E&S base.

Day 2 at my new station (or more accurately, as I found out by finally researching in my fav german - english dictionary: residential area) was a bit harder, but manageable. Tomorrow will be more stressful - we're only 4 staff members in the day shift due to a injured/sick colleague. Well - this too shall pass...
