Octidi 8 Floréal an 233 de la Révolution, jour du Champignon

• Brush: Semogue C3 Galahad Horse 🐎
• Razor: GEM MMOC
• Blade: Personna GEM PTFE (22)
• Lather: Le Père Lucien Narcisse
• Postshave: Naissance 702 Witch Hazel
• Postshave: Epsilon Blue Mediterranean
• Postshave: Nivea After Shave Balm

The blade is getting tuggy, and especially ATG it is quite uncomfortable. Maybe some stropping will smooth it back out.

Have a good evening!

There’s something catholic church about the mix of spices and incense but I like it.

But?

Take this exclusive footage of late Pope Francis. Made me smile.

Vegan, I guess?

Quartidi 4 Floréal an 233 de la Révolution, jour d’Aubépine

• Brush: Muninn Woodworks Gloire de France with Zenith 505BC Boar 🐗
• Razor: Koraat 14.2 Straight Razor
• Lather: Mäurer & Wirtz Tabac
• Postshave: Naissance 702 Witch Hazel
• Postshave: Tabac Original After Shave Lotion
• Postshave: Nivea After Shave Balm

I tried again Tabac, this time with a boar – which worked well enough. I went in rather dry, maybe that helped. In any case, I don’t have any talk based Tabac around, and I believe what I’m using is the OG vegan base (though I through away the packaging, so I cannot be sure).

Have a good evening!

Welcome!

Open Comb Micromtic Open Comb? Is that the sleep deprivation talking?

No, its the official nomenclature recommended by the Department of Redundancy Department

I’m quite tired

At least for your first 50 shaves, you should not use a straight razor when tired. I can feel quite clearly that my fine motor skills decline with the hour of the day, and I made a rule not to shave with a straight anymore after 22:00.

Tridi 3 Floréal an 233 de la Révolution, jour de Fougère

• Brush: Chisel & Hound Blaireau de la République with 24mm G5 Synthetic

• Postshave: Naissance 702 Witch Hazel
• Postshave: Tabac Original After Shave Lotion

Today happens to be the day of Fougère, but I unfortunately missed this. So, Tabac Tuesday + Koorat not Moarteen.

Have a good evening!

I probably should load less

Never

Big soap has taken over

Congratulations! It’s not exactly an editor plugin, but it’s a start 🤣🤣🤣

@djundjila@sub.wetshaving.social – where’s your project for computer-assisted SOTD creation?

Duodi 2 Floréal an 233 de la Révolution, jour de Chêne

• Brush: Semogue C3 Galahad Horse 🐎
• Razor: Puma 100
• Lather: Martin de Candre Absinthe
• Postshave: Mennen Le Grand Large
• Postshave: Nivea After Shave Balm

I’m getting sloppy posting… but here I am finally. I get the anise more and more in Absinthe, and I probably should load less. But it is always extremely slick, and a delight to shave with.

Have a good evening!

The Wetshaving Lemmy Soviet has spoken: no BVWSC shave in June.

Wednesday, April 16, 2025: BVWSC

• Brush: Yaqi 24mm Synthetic Panda
• Razor: King C. Gillette DE Razor
• Blade: Astra Superior Platinum (34)
• Lather: Areffa Phantom of Kiyv Kyiv
• Postshave: Williams Aqua Velva
• Postshave: Nivea After Shave Balm

BVWSC time, this time with Areffa’s Phantom of Kiyv Kyiv, brought to us by @sahenders@sub.wetshaving.social. Unfortunately, April is the cruelest month (with June) for my allergies and hayfever, so I am not really able to give an informed opinion about the scent. But the base was easy to lather, and very creamy – even though it was not bear, but rather beef based (I share the very slight disappointment with @snooting@sub.wetshaving.social 🤣).

Thanks again to @sahenders@sub.wetshaving.social for another excellent discovery!

Edit: Spelling of the Ukrainian capital.

For knives, this is pretty good advice

Ask not whether you will live long enough to use all that aftershave; ask how much you can use in one go without dying or suffering an insta-divorce

J.F. Kennedy (allegedly)

I got 300ml of Tabac Aftershave today. Finally I will be able to enjoy the full aroma of the wirtschaftswunder

👃👃👃

I got my smush as well!

Bummer for the GEM!
