What a great way to get the family involved in your shave! This week let them pick out your shave gear. So maybe it isn't exactly what you would choose for that day, but go with it! Let them get a little glimpse into what it is that makes your shave time such a special time for you. This week's Theme Week is My SO/Kid(s) Picked this out for me Week. I, for one, am really looking forward to this. Have fun!!
In order to get my SO to play along was to limit her to soap/cream and A/S. even then I had to limit her choices to pick from 6 soaps and 8 A/S. Monday: Cella & Proraso A/S Tuesday: De Vergulde Hand & RazoRock Baby Blue Wednesday: Thursday: Friday: Saturday:
SOTD 1/14/2013 Preshave - hot shower, Nivea face wash Cream - TOBS Lemon Lime Brush - WD 24mm Silvertip Blade - Polsilver Iridium / Israeli Red Razor - 1952 Gillette SS A/S - Aqua Velva The wife picked out the shave cream and the Aqua Velva tonight. Out of all of my aftershaves she likes Aqua Velva the best. She picked the Lemon Lime TOBS because its the shave cream she bought me as a Christmas present.
Today my wife selected: Tuesday Soap: L'Occitane Cade Brush: Omega 49, the red one Razor: '55 Blue Tip Post: Thayers Rose Petal WH, B&BW Oak No complaints here.
Tuesday: De Vergulde Hand & RazoRock Baby Blue Wednesday: Tabac & Ogallala Bay Rum and Sandalwood Thursday: Erasmic Cream & Pinaud Clubman Friday: Saturday: The wife asked to pick out my shave last night for today and tomorrow. I made the mistake of telling her where to find everything. When she opened the drawers and medicine cabinet... I got the deer in headlights look. She said you have way to much stuff and don't need to buy anything else for about 4 years. I was rolling inside, thinking back to the stories most of you have shared. Little does she know, I'm waiting on two packages.
Selected by my wonderful wife: Soap: TSD Egyptian Spice Brush: The Dridecker Razor: Merkur 34G Post: Brut ASB, Brut cologne She done good!
As I entered the bathroom for my saturday's leisure shave my SO called from under the shower: "Oh yeah, I should pick your shaves this week!" - "Only if you wanto to, dear." - "Okay. The most right handed soap, the midle razor ande the left brush." - "There's six razors, dear." - "Then take the one to the left of the centre. And the pudding mould bowl." So, what did she pick? This: Wonderful BBS shave.
I haven't been keeping up with the posts here I have in the SOTD), but my wife has been picking out my soap, brush, razor and aftershave every day this week. She hasn't made a bad choice yet. I asked her about it the other day, if she minded doing this for me. She said no, she actually found it interesting to get involved with what interests me. She also liked smelling all the soaps before making her choice. Man, I love my wife
I asked my wife to pick out my scent and she wanted me to use one of hers...the Body Shop's Neroli & Jasmin... Now this is diffinantly a ladies perfume, so I tentativly tried a shot...It's GREAT!! I went a head and sprayed away...Used the same scent shower gel later and loved it too...Smells like a Mediterranean Orange Orchard...
Last day of the Theme Week. My wife picked out... Soap: AoS Sandalwood Brush: C&E Pure Badger SE: Gem Jr. Lather Catcher Cologne: Curve She done good again!
