    I remembered you mentioned that in a previous post. I would say you where creative rather than cheated. :) Looks like it worked. :happy088:

    Blade: GEM Stainless
    Razor: GEM Featherweight
    Brush: JR #60 synthetic
    Lather: Ginger's Garden Salty Mariner
    Post: Witch hazel, Fine Platinum aftershave
    WTG, touch-up

    Nice and easy shave with the Featherweight and Ginger's Garden Salty Mariner soap. Smooth and comfortable per usual. Fine Platinum finished it all off nicely. The Featherweight does a superb job.

    Have a great day!

    Today's shave.
    Hot water wash with a washcloth and donkey milk soap
    Parker silvertip
    Bombed Route 66 Sweeney Todd
    Parker 99R
    Persona Crystal (3)
    Omega Alum
    Crusellas Gardena
    Route 66 Sweeney Todd Botanical Balm
    Today's shave was nice. The big Parker brush always feels, luxurious. The Sweeney lather, awesome as always. New to me razor. The Parker 99R did very nicely, mine seated the blade nicely. I couldn't see or feel any difference between the sides. The handle is large and heavy. It sounded off very well. The shave was close and comfy. I'm surprised that I haven't heard more about it. Finish with alum, Gardena, and Sweeney balm. FABULOUS.
    Hope y'all did as well, or better. 20170525_081010.jpg

    I'm terrible at scent descriptions! Irena (@soapbuddy) describes it as "Crisp ozone with salty sea spray and ocean air. Smell the thunder of waves crashing against the shore." That's dead on. Nice, salty, sea air scent.
