  8. I don't remember. I've inhaled too much shaving soap for my brain to function.

    January 13th
    Menthol Monday

    Razor: Gillette BlueTip
    Blade: Feather Hi-Stainless (1)
    Brush: Omega S-Brush S10019
    PS: Stirling Menthollated Pre-Shave & Proraso Green
    SS: Stirling Christmas Eve
    AS: Proraso Green

    Happy Monday the 13th, way scarier than Friday the 13th. I'm continuing on with my sample reduction but I got plenty of menthol in my pre and post shave products.

    Also decided to go easy on my face with a mild razor. The BlueTip paired with a Feather is a great combo as long as I don't apply pressure to make up for the mild feel. Obviously my shave wasn't as close, but that was the goal after yesterday's dermisectomy. After 3 passes and minimal cleanup, the alum was kind. I did top a few razor bumps which was expected and did provide some feedback. Evil Autostrop...

    I still laugh when I think a about how we turn our shaves into mini dramas. Fun times.

    Lovely picture and shave, Evan! The Blue Tip doesn't come up in my rotation very often but I enjoy it every time it does.

    Great shave as usual Clint! Love the green. Now I am ready to dig my pickup out of the snow so I can drive to work.

    Oneblade Synthetic Shaving Brush
    Salsa Bowl / Timeless Shaving Bowl Scuttle
    Razorock Black Label Soap
    Pearl SBF-11FB, TTO Open Comb
    Feather Blade
    Black Tie Gentleman EDT – Dupe of Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille

    Sorry I have not been keeping up but things have been busy.

    I had a very surprising first shave with the Pearl TTO open comb razor. What was surprising? The moment this shave started I was amazed at how smooth this razor is. Honestly, I would compare it to my Karve with the C solid bar plate. Yes, this $10.40 razor can run with the Karve. I know it is crazy but it really is that smooth. The Razorrock soap and the Feather helped the Pearl mow through three days’ worth of growth.

    Finished it off with the Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille dup.

    I hope everyone is doing great and I have not forgot about y’all.
