    June 17th
    Razor: Blackland Vector
    Blade: Feather AC Pro (7)
    Brush: WWB Lemondrop/ Envy Supreme White
    Pre-shave: Stirling Mentholated
    Soap: Stirling GLO
    Stirling Orange Chill witch hazel
    PAA unscented Star Jelly
    AS: Stirling GLO

    Good morning!

    Wonderful shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. The alum was silent.

    Cold water along with GLO was pretty intense. Love it!

    The blade was showing its age on the third pass, it's now in the blade bank.

    Have a great week![​IMG]

    June 17

    Gillette 7 O'Clock PII Trac II
    Personna Twin II Plus Cartridge (4)
    30 Day Crew LE figured maple handle w/APShaveCo Tuxedo knot
    C.O. Bigelow
    Thayers WH, USB, and Pinaud Clubman

    I dedicate my first shave in the new den using a classic aftershave to @Paul Turner and @clint64. I completed two passes for a nice early morning shave, and I "finished up" my Trac II cartridge before stowing my trusty travel razor.

    Errands and setting up shop are on the agenda for today. I hope you all have a fantastic Monday!

    Have a great day, Clint. I hope the face is smooth, the tummy feels good, the traffic is light, the day is short, the clients are happy, and the pivot tables crank out generous tax deductions. :)

    Gillette Tech
    Gillette Silver Blue (4?)
    Semogue BC Mistura
    Real Shave Co SC
    Superior 70

    First shave in a few days and it was nice enough to start the week. Two passes, comfortable, irritation free, but not overly close on the neck. It is probably time to change the blade.

    Finished a stick of Arko on Saturday, well mostly. It was a tiny sliver and I binned it. I'm not too far from finishing the tube of Real Shave Co SC either. It is my last tube of cream besides a few small Russian tubes that I am using sparingly.
