Monday. Prep: Hot towel Pre shave: Prep Razor: Weber ARC Blade: Gillette Bleue Extra Brush: New Forest Tubby 1 Finest Soap: Ariana & Evans 'Khalifa' Post: Cold water rinse / Witch Hazel / RazoRock Aftershave Wax the GBE is proving to be a lovely blade, and 'Khalifa' is a soap that easily whips up into a wonderfully lush lather, that can hold A LOT of water, to provide a lovely slick, protective lather... the scent reminds me of 'Black Afgano', which in my book is a GOOD thing... finished off with the equally smoky RazoRock Aftershave Wax... RESULT!

Tue. 6/12/18 Good morning friends. A very fine three pass shave today with the Schick N1 fitted with a twin blade. Excellent lather from the Palmolive shave cream. I finished with Old Spice... smooth and refreshed. Enjoy your day friends. ☺️
Tabac Tuesday's Shave Proraso Pre Shave Tabac Jayaruh #291 Gem Featherweight CVS Carbon Steel SE CWR Thayer's Peach WH Tabac AS I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Tabac Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #291 Synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Gem Featherweight Razor with a CVS Carbon Steel SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Peach WH and then Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed... I had been reading reviews of the featherweight, and many were saying how mild they were and they could not get a good shave with them. Well, I don't think most of them know how to shave with GEMs. I had no problem with my FW. I just put the head flat against my face and went to town on my beard. I got a great shave. Now, I can continue through Thursday with it. It is a looker, and it is also a great shaver.

12 June 2018 Day 3 of my "mini focus week". Heading out shortly to my follow-up appointment with the dermatologist. The initial rash is under control. However it seems I've gotten a case of systemic poison ivy. Blisters popping up all over. Hoping for a course of steroids to remedy this mess.
