    Pretty good shave tonight. I bowl lathered for a change, but might have added a touch too much water. The lather felt a bit thin. It produced mountains of fluffy clouds, but they didn't feel protective enough. I still walked away with a good result, and the scent it a winner.

    Came home to Colorado with a beauty waiting in my mail box and since I skipped my morning shave gave it a go tonight. A very smooth and efficient razor. Only issue I had was shaving too quickly to get myself in bed on time which resulted in two small weepers on my chin but no other issues. Alum was even quiet on my neck.

    No time for a pic earlier, so I had to pick through the archives and find some.

    The Soap Commander Vision always pleasantly surprises me with what an awesome soap it is. It is such a clean scent, and just that little bit of mint for a small chill. Followed up with some Florida Water with an eye melting amount of menthol. I really like summer.

    Everything came together for the shave this morning. The Route 66 Perfect Storm provided a great slick lather with a nice light fougere scent. Decided to take my time and enjoy a full 3 pass shave. With some touch ups along the jaw line, I managed to catch the baby. Finished with a splash of Fine L'Orange. I hope everyone has a great Wednesday.

    Another excellent shave today. Very close and comfortable. Satisfying lather and scent. I think calendula is just as good or better than tea tree for my face. It has a similar calming effect without the medicinal odor.

    For a 30 year old brush that was never used it worked like it was new. It's a great knot. It's starting to splay more with each use. I'd like 2 find another one.

    A very enjoyable and BBS shave from my Palmolive Menthol cream. The scent, lather, and cooling effect were great and so was the skincare. The Shambala aftershave is very cold and smells wonderful!
