    Monday's Shave
    zcws.gif

    Nivea Men Face Wash
    Williams
    Made-Rite 12 Boar
    Gillette Super-84
    Kai Stainless
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayer's Lemon WH
    Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS

    The Williams Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Made-Rite 12 Boar brush. I did two passes the Gillette Super-84 razor and Kai Stainless blade (6), and I ended up with a close, comfortable shave. This was my first shave with this razor, and I found it to be very smooth and balanced. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    This big Kropp is a favorite of mine. Today was a wonderful shave. Just light pressure and all is good. Even the tough spots were relatively easy to handle. :happy036:

    I'll keep it clean - Just kidding. Sorry, I could not resist.

    Mr. Pink is a barbershop type scent. It is funny, but there is a component that reminds me of Bazooka Joe bubble gum (the kind with the comic you would chew playing baseball as a kid) with a tinge of citrus. I bought it in August and have used it 22 times! I know i'm crazy but I actually log my daily shaves. It is a fairly plain type splash, alcohol based, and the scent does not last long. I generally put it on heavier, and if I wet my face at all throughout the day, I can actually catch a light whiff of the scent. It is on par with most splash type AS' but is a great value. I think I paid about $14 for 13.5 oz in a nice glass bottle. It performs like Booster, Aqua Velva, etc. I recommend it as a basic but nice smelling splash. Typical Italian Barber high value product. I understand it is the same as their Blue product, but they colored it wrong and offer it discounted if still in stock. Definitely worth the price.

    I haven't seen that one in years, but remember it was pretty good. I'm bad with movies. I just remember if they were good or not, but for the most part, completely forget the story until I watch them again.
