Today's shave was nice. Lavender Dial bath bar prompted a lavender theme. Sara's soap provided the lather, smoothly drawn away with the diamond edge. Cleanup with the FH. Finished the theme with jockey club a/s.
Hope y'all did as well, or better.

Great shave this morning. I hope you all had a good shave as well!

 

Lollllll I noticed that too with my 2 tubs. Super-cold is not the word, that soap is ungodly-cold but for me it was a big problem to lather and it didn't do my skin any good.

 

Today's shave was very easy and enjoyable. I had great lather from the Proraso Blue cream with a bit of a menthol sensation during my 2nd pass. The Nivea Cool Kick balm is not that cooling, but you can feel a slight menthol sensation and it feels comfortable. The Don Donato aftershave is more mentholated and smells terrific!

Thanks Jim. Have a great day buddy.

 

Thanks buddy.

It's a good way to start the day.

 

My right arm acted up again after yesterday's soap shave. I need to cut way down on right-handed brush-use. I need to use the right hand as it is, for certain areas of my face(well, that's a given).
