    Thanks fellas!

    05 January 2019

    Today's shave ends a 7 day run with the same set-up. Just as close and refreshing as last Sunday's shave. Tomorrow will be the start of my 2019 aftershaves reduction effort. Haven't figured out which one to begin with, but I have all day to sort it out...after I take down the Christmas tree, box up the ornaments, give the compost bin a good turning over, rotate the dartboard, pick up a case of beer for the NFL games this weekend. OK, I don't have all day!

    Soap: ARKO (mashed into a 60's era Old Spice mug)
    Brush: Omega 10086 boar
    Razor: Fatip Grande
    Blade: Personna Red (UK pkg) (7)
    Aftershave: Mennen Skin Bracer

    Great performing shave today with the Rex. Smooth and so effortless but, perhaps even more so than usual as the GD offering with the beef and lamb tallow was absolutely off the charts. A brilliant lather with a nice citrus and fresh type scent. If you’re a citrus type kind of soap chaser, this is it. Today’s shave could not have gotten any better. Well, perhaps a bit of exaggeration as a shave is only as good as the last one. It can only be topped by the next one. Have a great day and amazing shaves everyone.... ;)
