SoS: September 11, 2017 - September 17, 2017

Nothing like a good face-freezing BBS shave with the Glacial MITA soap on a warm, humid morning followed by the Diana Menthol balm and a couple of splashes of Alcolado Glacial. Now I feel like there's a built-in air conditioner working in my face!

Have a great Sunday, guys!

The long neglected Damaskeen started out well but I had a hard time getting to BBS on my head (GEM PTFE). Out of practice maybe, or perhaps the Blue Stars do better for me. I let the R41/Nacet clean up.

Hi Jamie, Great pic. How did you like the Porthos? I am not sure I ever used Aramis, so I am not familiar with it.
I like art work. I noticed Doug used the picture of himself in the flying vehicle which he also used on the Lime Ginger Tea Tree graphics.

The original Schick injector delivered a superb shave this morning taking on three days of stubble. By the second pass it was already a smooth shave. After three passes it is now nothing but face-rubbing goodness.

Still in my jamies, (9:15 am)

Bill this is going to be a lazy day. WTG/ATG, very little clean-up. I had one of the most relaxing shaves in ages. I guess that put me in the mood to lounge for at least a 1/2 day. If this isn`t a BBS, then it`s the next thing to it. I guess that blade sliding effortlessly across my skin is actually our goal, no? Beautiful! God be with each of you with love in your heart.

 

Shave of the Day for our 24th wedding anniversary date. Shave was A+ and dinner was absolutely outstanding. Feeling incredibly blessed.

Aftershave - Taylor of Old Bond Street Sandalwood

Thank you Doug!

 

Today was a bit of a reset. I put a new blade in the Slim (randomly pulling out a Shark from my cache), pulled out the previously overstuffed Thater which has been "shed free" for several shaves now, and lathered up some awesome smelling Catie's Waterlyptus. Stirling Lemon Chill AS batted cleanup. For today's full review of Catie's Bubbles, check out my Reviews of 30+ Soaps thread.
