    Well.......................... it was sooo bad, I`m not even going to describe how bad my skin feels. I`ll just take a page out of Obama`s book," it ain`t my fault.".........................".George did it". Of course it doesn`t deserve a picture. Look up guys, there`s always tomorrow. Everybody else, have a good one.

    Thank you. Although it came out a little dark, it looked better than the other photos I took.

    image.jpeg Razor: Merker Futur Polished Chrome 2015 (1.5)
    Brush: Vintage Ever-Ready 300L with TGN Silvertip 18/51 by ObiDon 2015
    Mug: Old Spice 1985 Cobalt Blue
    Cream: Route 66 Bourbon Jungle
    Blade: Feather (1)
    Post shave: Thayers Cucumber WH, Jack Black balm, Tommy Bahamas St. Barts cologne

    Swirled up some Bourbon Jungle into my favorite OS mug. The Ever-Ready 300L badger with the TGN knot whipped up some nice warm lather. The TGN Silvertip is a bit scratchy, compared to my very soft WD knots The Futur made quick work in 2 passes WTG XTG. A little touchup on my neck ATG and done. The Cucumber WH felt good, nice and cool. After cleanup some JB and when it dried, some Tommy Bahamas St. Barts. Y'all have a good one!

    SHAVE OF THE DAY

    sotd107.jpg


    PREP: OCCAMS CRUSHED LIME PRE SHAVE SOAP
    RAZOR: 1953 GILLETTE TECH
    BLADE: BIG BEN (5TH SHAVE)
    BRUSH: RAZOROCK PLISSOFT
    SOAP: TIM'S SOAP GREEN LABEL- CITRUS BLOSSOM
    POST: STEPHANS ISLAND LIME AFTERSHAVE



    2 pass shave this morning. Went with a citrus theme, the Tim's soap made a nice lather and has a bright citrus scent. This is the last shave on the Big Ben as it was showing signs of wear on todays shave. Finished off with Island Lime, I added some menthol crystals to it so it was nice and cooling as well. Hope everyone has a great shave!

    That's great! I use both hands with a DE. Right on left, left on right. With a str8 I'm still all over the place.

    Thank you! The Cobalt Blue Old Spice mug is hard to get that wonderful color to show.

    Thank you - I definitely have much to learn though ;)


    Thanks, Kerry :)


    Thank you for taking the time to read what I write :happy088:


    well, I guess it will take some time until I have figured out the most effective way of shaving. But I think in a few weeks handling the blade will feel much more natural.
