October 2019 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

OCtober

MWF~~Simpson PJ3~~Dovo 91~~Burt's Bees Bay Rum
It appears the MWF users are waning...
Not PRIMO. When Primo commits to something, he goes all the way.
Another luscious lather, loving loaded and layered on the face.
The Persian Jar, however, lost a hair during loading
Nevertheless a creamy base provided the Dovo a slick base on which to work.
Tried holding the blade itself on an ATG pass on the right-side of my chin with success.
The point of the Dovo left a mark on the left cheek during the WTG pass.
Excellent results, nonetheless.
The BB Bay Rum is a wonderful way to finish a shave.​

 

Terrific shave and picture, Joseph!

 

Thank you Evan. I do have some shavette experience and also do some SE butterknife every May hem.

Very nice Terry! Some scents take getting used to then turn out to be the favorites for me .

Nice setup Tommy! Love the Avon.

Nice gear Jim! Clusterfig has a nice ring to the name .

Great stuff Charlie! My stomach is growling for some of your stew but I will settle it down with another 2 cups of coffee . I could smell the ingredients as I was reading your post.

I will try not to knock my WSP Blackbeard into the sink today though it is a thirsty soap Paul. I dont know what the rules state about " accidental blooming" but I'm assuming you may be joining the " soap bloomers" club due to the fact you just publicly declared a blooming experience. Can someone clarify this for Pauls sake and my curiosity?

Sounds like an awesome weekend Joe! Cudos on hitting the gym. Theres one just down the street from here but I havent crossed the threshold in years . Kind of miss seeing the posers in tight t-shirts who did a 5 min workout and the women in velure tracksuits and full makeup reading magazines while on the sitdown bikes. I went to relieve stress and stay fit but sure got a chuckle at the same time. The cost of membership has about tripled since then.

 

Thank you Charlie. I am a little better today. My plan is to rest this weekend.

 

The Boston Blue Ming faagaht where he paahkt his caah.

 

Thank you, Patrick!

 

Great looking shave Blair. Your Version 2 of the Core is reported to be much more efficient than my Version 1. You can try a Gem blade in the razor by removing the spine. See if it locks in place well enough to shave. If not you will have to use a hole punch to alter the cutouts on the side of the blade.

 

Stick and stay, make it pay. We used to say that in construction to guys who talked about quitting and going back home. Glad to see to havent wavered Joseph! You may get the "MWF Ironman " award this month.

 

Wonderful shave and report Joseph. The Dovo is simply gorgeous.

 

Spies in Kentuksylvania!

Gem Damaskeene OC

Cold River Schapenmelk
Dominica Grand Bay Rum Aftershave

​

I am up and moving this morning which is a win given the way I felt last night. Back to the Damaskeene OC for the weekend. My wife bought this brush at a craft fair and I replaced the knot with a TGN finest knot. It is a little on the floppy side but still some nice scritch during face lathering. Three passes and touch ups just let the baby escape. A splash of Dominica Grand Bay Rum aftershave and I am ready for a day of rest. I hope everyone has a great Saturday.

 

Beautiful picture and gear, Clint!
I'm hoping for a quick and full recovery.

 

Just blood, sweat and tears tbh...

 

Thanks, Patrick! I have been an LA Fitness member for 38 months. I have gone 5 to six days a week and sometimes I go 2x in one day. At 64, and with a family history of diabetes, stroke, cholesterol and heart attack, I needed to take better care of myself. I rather put the money towards a gym membership than to give it to a doctor. I think everyone should do at least 30 min of daily exercise. You can walk, swim, do body weight exercises like pushups, sit-ups and even stretch bands without paying for a membership. Where there is a will, there is a way. Have a good day, Patrick!

 

Nice shave and report, Clint! Glad your feeling much better. Relaxing at home sounds very good to me. Enjoy your day of rest my friend.

 

Terrific shave, Blair! Have a nice Saturday afternoon!

 

Gary, excellent shave and post! Have a great Saturday!

 

Very nice shaves everyone! I'll skip the quoting, as the message would be very long.
I think i'll skip shaving today, more to shave tomorrow.

I did get these today, had to splash on some Aqua Velva. I like it a lot!

 

Keeping Up Appearances, again!

 

Thank you Jim. 30 more minutes and UGA football starts.
