    Very nice! It is going to be in the mid 70's here today. I had forgotten it could still snow!

    Razor: No Name 3 piece tech.
    Blade: Personna Red (5)
    Brush: Omega Syn.
    Cream: Proraso White tube.
    Pre Shave oil: Homemade.
    AS: Dove. Men + Care.
    Bowl: Pick up at antique shop.
    BTW: 8 the hard way

    Different set up yet again. Trying my best to get those pesky areas on my neck without PAIN. So my 1st pass WTG, straight forward all the way(no deviation). Smooth all the way(Proraso). The 2nd pass ATG, not bad, a little drag(#5 on blade), but probably human error. Followed by a 3rd watered down pass WTG/ATG/XTG, feeling with my fingers all the way, got most, but no BBS, I`ll say DFS and maybe a +. Satified but, not overjoyed.

    Prep - Woods Of Windsor Cedar Woods soap / Pre-lather / 3 min steam
    Razor - Gillette Ball-End Tech
    Blade - Gillette 7 o'clock SharpEdge
    Brush - J.F.Martin "Tiny" 30mm HMW
    Soap - Tcheon Fung Sing Ambassador LE
    After - Frozen towel / Brut Original A/S
    Result - Dolphin Squeaky Smooth

    Another excellent soap from my backlog that I'm only getting around to using now. TFS certainly lives up to its reputation, lovely post shave feel.
    An effortless shave all around really, well apart from the "Tiny" 733g handle. The 7 o'clock yellows are a lovely blade, very smooth.

    Prep: Hot shower/ Nivea Original Men's Face Wash
    Pre-Shave: Proraso White
    Soap: Proraso Red
    Brush: Manhandled Wood shop 24mm Boar
    Razor/ Blade: Merkur 1906/ Voskhod (1)
    Astringent: Witch Hazel
    Post-Shave: Nivea Sensitive Balm
    Aftershave: Captain's Choice Sandalwood
    Great shave last night. The Proraso Red is a great performing soap and smells great. The Shea Butter helps with post shave so it is not as drying as traditional Proraso soaps. Back to my Daily Shaver razor/ Blade combo. Captain's Choice Sandalwood is a Bay Rum/ Sandalwood cologne smell and is one of my favorites. Great shave overall!

    I plan to make a TSD purchase this summer to help keep me in good rotation as I put away my Clubman an AV Musk for next fall/winter.

    Biotique Palmyra
    Avon Windjammer

    The Persona blade in the red wrapper with the crisp printing on the blade did not have the smoothness or staying power of the Persona Lab Blue. 4 shaves and not smooth after the first shave, so into the blade bank it went. Left me with a little irritation. Tomorrow...have to go to the magic shoebox to see what is next.
