    Good morning friends. Having not shaved with my GEM G-Bar in a while I decided to take it for a spin this morning and was quickly reminded of why it's been sitting on the shelf for so long. As beautiful as this razor is it's just too much work. I switched to my PAL Adjustable for my third pass and saved the shave. Love Speick shave cream. It's performance is marvelous and post shave feel is excellent as well. Three passes for a hard earned dolphin smooth finish. Enjoy your day guys. :)

    Post: Witch hazel splash enhanced with Stirling Piacenza, Nivea sensitive balm
    WTG, touch-up

    Good shave this morning. A tiny bit or irritation on my lower right neck. That area is pretty sensitive and I have to be careful there. Must have been a little careless this morning. But overall nice result. Sweeney Todd is a complex, deep blood orange scent. Very interesting.

    Have a great day!

    Thanks Jim! This is an app called Photo Lab. There is a filter in there called "Liny Comics". When I use a filter I then alter it by adjusting contrast, brightness, saturation, etc. I like to make them my own. :happy088:

    Thanks for the encouragement. I think in the end that is what it will boil down to....getting the right number.

    My sister made that bowl. She is a ceramic artist. She runs Boise Mudworks. She has also made me a scuttle that I use occasionally.
