    Glacial would be be great for a DE or SE shave but with a straight I need to keep some feeling, so I know if am about to fillet my cheek.

    The knot has broken in nicely.

    Yeah, some times I get sloppy. Had to orchestrate a School Night outing with the MOM working an evening shift. The twins got invited to the trampoline park for a B-day party. So it was posting between regular duties while getting supper ready early. Turns out it wasn't just jumping around. The young man's folks also sprang for standard kid kibble - pepperoni pizza, followed by the expected cake and ice cream. I'm glad we went though. He invited all 16 kids in the class. The only ones that came besides his family were my girls and the teacher.

    Materials used (Duplicate at your own risk)

    Receptacle; Ceramic dish; Country of origin; Japan
    Method of agitation; O-Pro#98; Country of origin; Italy

    Preliminary Results; Equal quantities of Product #1 & #2 in combination with Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) resulted in a white colloidal suspension of sufficient quantity to partially fill Receptacle; Ceramic dish & saturate Agitation device; O-Pro#98. See image 20192602-35; END
    A & T 20192602-35.gif
    Secondary Results; Applied WCS #35 (See;White Colloidal Suspension in previous Reference Above) to Test Subject #⬛ ⬛--⬛ in standard test pattern. WCS #35 removed via G-Type 195 (1959 model on setting 9 with affixed replaceable "GSB" blade). Repeated procedure two additional times to assure reduction and smooth surface resulted. A fair portion of the WCS #35 remained in the ceramic receptacle and agitation device. If further testing should occur, it is suggested a larger quantity of both Product #1 & #2 be combined (prior to addition of DHMO) and stored for further testing. Post Testing procedure included application of GEV ehT in sufficient quantities to mask the scent of Product #1 & #2, althogh this may have been unnecessary as the Test Subject survived the procedure and seemed in good spirits with no apparent physical or psychological injury.

    Good morning!

    Awesome shave to start the day! Loading the soap like I hated it cured my woes. Three passes for BBS. Just the slightest tickle from the alum on my neck.

    Prep: Cold water and Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap
    Blade: Schick
    Razor: PAL Injectomatic
    Brush: jtspartan Tuxedo flat top synthetic
    Soap: Route 66 Cavendish
    Post: Witch hazel, Jeeves of Hudson Street Tobacco Bay Leaf aftershave

    Easy shave with the Pushbutton. I'm working to finish off this sample of Route 66 and it looks to have one more use. It'll be up again on Thursday. Smooth shaving with this combination.

    No rest for the weary. Concert at the school tonight so I'll be home late. Then up and right back at it tomorrow.

    Have a great day!
