    RyX DoH!

    That's what I was checking. It's labeled "bath foam" but came in a set with a tiny synthetic brush and a kids version of a cartridge razor. I put it back next to the bathtub for the little ones to enjoy.
    Only change is that I'm not a bay rum user since I avoid clove heavy scented products. The rose and Rub didn't clash so much that I wouldn't use it again. Generally I do prefer alcohol based splashes over gelled balms or WH/non-alcohol AS.
    That makes sense. Not living where those old steam radiators are common, do they get dangerously hot? Enough to make a pressurized can pop? I have a bigger problem with folks putting 12 ounce soda pop cans in the freezer. It's messy but not dangerous.

    Rick, there usually are warnings to keep away from high temperatures.

    Rick, there usually are warnings to keep away from high temperatures. It is common sense because if you heat a gas in a closed system, the pressure will increase because the air expands and causes the container to burst. Lighting a match to an air-filled balloon will burst for the same reason.

    Good morning, guys!
    Completed Dovo Shavette shave #62.
    Lathered with Piacenza with Rocky brush. Two passes, touchups, a chin and neck weeper, produced an awesome BBS. Changed my technique on the fool's pass. I treated my moustache area like it was my cheek so that I was pulling down with my finger as I was going ATG and I got the best results. Usually, I would keep the blade stationary and move my face downward or move the blade upward with my face being fixed. Anyway, the blade was the Voskhod and it really is smooth and sharp. It is the 2nd shave on this blade. Weepers were gone with styptic and witchhazel applications. Topped the shave with the Piacenza AS. My face is refreshed and clean.
    Result Grade 95 = A
    Have a great Monday, guys!
    PS, I will be using olive oil for my next shave.

    I have the A&E “The City” Sandalwood and Oud being delivered today. It’ll be my first new experiment with Sandalwood in several years.

    Thank you Danny. It’s really unusual for me to have less than a near perfect shave. Occasionally I’ll get a pretty good nick at worse. I have all my razors pretty well dialed in so things are on auto pilot. I also tend to not keep razors that require more effort than I’m willing to put in on a daily basis.
