    Did real well with my shave this morning. I decided to skip using the Stoylin Frost Drops for this one, as Aqua Velva would be good enough comfort, and the temp is dropping a bit. "Brownie" got a good "load" of the Razorock puck("Acqua "Shaving Cream Soap"). Once again, I lifted my glasses frames so as to clear off more from around the ear. Note the quotes around the soap name...I think it was Razorock's idea of saying "Yeah I know, odd name, but for this soap it fits".

    Awesome shave and glad you got the lather you knew you could accomplish! You knew you could do it and you stuck to it. I don't bloom and I find that my synthetics will load better than my Omega boar. Take care and enjoy your day.

    Very nice shave Paul, sounds like a great soap. Can you do pictures? You know we love pictures! Pictures make our day. Pictures let us become more involved in you shaves.

    Up and moving pretty early for a holiday weekend. Already took care of the morning PT, knocked out one honey do and finished a pot of coffee. Back to the Speick shave cream this morning. The herbal scent of the cream really adds to the shave. Three passes with no touch ups or buffing let the little guy escape. I just didn't feel like buffing my neck this morning. A splash of Agua Balsamica and I am ready for a lunch date with Mom. I hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday.

    August 2019 Recap

    [​IMG]

    It has been an interesting and busy month with work and Maya going back to school. I continued my year long effort to use up some of my soap and cream inventory. I was not able to finish any this month but I did make a dent in a few. I bought the new Thater Synthetic brush which is really giving my beloved Simpson CH2 Synthetics a run for the money. As always the best part of the month is following the thread with its shenanigans and friendship that extends beyond shaving. I look forward to participating in next month's 30 day thread.

    Tallow all day, every day. Glorious, slick, moisturizing animal fat vs. runny vegetable liquid. No contest. There, I said it. That'll ensure another 250 posts today. :)

    While I have your attention, is anyone interested in a watch, flashlight, refrigerator, socket set, or a pre-owned private jet? Get 'em while they're hot...er...while they're still in stock. It's not too late to take advantage of my end of month sale. :p
