    Another wonderful shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. Just a tickle from the alum on my neck.

    This years Meet Up brush with last years Meet Up soap. Excellent combo!

    Well the GEMs aren't letting me down.
    With a horse hair brush and all the usual suspects. My push button GEM gave me a wonderful shave this morning. Smooth, clean and issue free. I smell great and ready for what life lobs at me.

    Long days and short nights making this old guy tired, but it should be over by September or soon after.
    Tried to get through the post but failed miserably last night, sorry.
    Anyway, I'm ready for the day.
    All
    Enjoy

    No, but it did make me realize how much easier it is to use a DE.

    Busy week and I'm having a hard time keeping. This photo basically sums up my shaves for the week. 13A▲ soap with some kind of injector. Glacial Lemon Chill splash for the most part but with Jeeves Tobacco Bay Leaf on Tuesday. This shave photo was actually from Tuesday but I haven't had time to take more photos. There is a much bigger donut hole in the soap now than when this photo was taken.

    Trump Tower lobby. 7:00 pm tonight. Fu Manchu. Extra dash of Clubman behind the ears. New shoes (thanks @Paul Turner for the recommendation). I'll be easy to spot.

    July 25 SOTD:

    Razor: Rocnel Adjustable
    Blade: Rapira PL
    Brush: Razorock Plissoft
    Lather: Wilkinson Sword Shave Bowl
    Aftershave: TSD Floid Blue Type

    Same set up as yesterday, and I recycled the same picture. I did a better job of hydrating the soap this morning, and it was a bit slicker. Still not a great performer. If someone told me they liked this soap quite a bit, it wouldn't shock me, but as for me I will be moving on from this one. The shave was still good as I got a DFS. This is lining up to be a busy day. I hope everyone has a great day!

    @clint64, I hope the travel went well.

    Fantastic setup and shave, Rick. You assembled all the top shelf gear for this one. You are living large, my friend. :cool:

    I eagerly await the BoS lather report and scent review from your granddaughters! :)

    Very nice shave, Keith. Terre d’Hermès is a favorite, and that's a sweet looking Omega GMT. :cool:

    Thanks, Charlie!
    Wonderful performance this morning. The Maggards SHD knots are excellent. Paired with the handle Jason @jtspartan made it an instant favorite.
