Smells like the Drug Store SEptember!!!! (Stirling Booster)

September 12

Razor - Schick Injector E2
Blade - (2)
Soap - Stirling Electric Sheep
Brush - WCS Synthetic
ASOD - The Veg

Second shave for the E2 Injector following the usual Tuesday Head Shave. I'm thinking about seeing if ESPN might offer a Tuesday night slot. Tuesday Night Head Shaves!! Maybe ESPN 3.

Went with the West Coast brush and the Electric Sheep tonight. Second shave with it and I am just as impressed as I was with the first. Quite a unique scent but it's rather invigorating. There's lemon in there and that sparks a bit of an Arko image but the citronella and eucalyptus turn it into something very unique. I like it. This one may get ordered in a full tub.

Two passes and some touch up for a nice DFS with less burn from the Alum. I made a point of keeping my grip toward the end of the handle to avoid adding any pressure and the razor responded perfectly. Nice shave to get ready for a new week. And the Veg will be a great start out the door in the morning.

Slept in bed until 10am with too much to drink last night and it has been such overwhelming with the guys in London.

 

This was a good shave, but I'm still sick, so I couldn't really smell anything. It is more difficult to be out sick as a teacher than it is to go in and tough it out. Especially this week as my AP Psych students near their first exam of the year.

 

Cool looking picture and brush.

It's really unfortunate that politics have to get in the way because since I'm Israeli it's forbidden for me to travel to Syria, where this Hamol cream is from. It's such wonderful stuff - a great scent, so much rich lather which builds so easily and it's fairly-cooling. It also leaves a good post-shave feeling. I enjoyed using it very much this morning and I got BBS with so little effort. The Red Delicious aftershave went on nicely and I find the scent interesting.

Enjoy your shaves and have a great day!

 

Thank you!
