TJ in da house Decent shave tonight, kind of rushed and wasn't used to the Valobra Methol soap......it lathered great but didn't seem like it was providing enough slip I haven't used it a lot though so maybe I need more practice....
Thursday: Omega Silvertip Weishi Chrome/new Treet Dura Sharp Italian Palmolive Menthol S/C Lubriderm unscented moisturizer Vifrex A/S gel Acqua di Selva cologne I find the Treet Dura Sharp in a Weishi is a little too mild for my beard type, so tomorrow, it'll be a Sharp, or a 7 AM. Still, a pretty good shave!

Thursday, September 25, 2008 Start with Hot Shower, Olay Botonical Fusion Body Wash (Ginger & Bergamot), Head & Shoulders Citrus Shamp/Cond 2 in 1 Razor: Merkur 33c Blade: Derby Extra (Day 2) Ugh! Brush: Tweezerman Badger (still some shedding!) Soap: none today Cream: Kiss My Face Moisture Shave Key Lime (I love! this cream) Toner: Dickinson Witch Hazel ASB: Burt's Bees Cologne: Burt's Bees I am dropping the Alba Moisturizing Shave Cream (Coconut Lime) and the Burt's Bees Shave Cream from my rotation. They just don't lather. I guess they are not supposed to. I am also dropping the Herban Cowboy and the Old Dominion Lime & Ginger Soaps. No staying power in either puck. Instead of my usual Hugo Naturals Mexican Lime & Bergamot Soap I used the Olay Botonical Fusion Body Wash (Ginger & Bergamot) in my shower. The Olay worked well and smelled good, but I still prefer the smell of the Hugo.
