Shave of the Week!! Fine "Marvel" razor Astra SP/GSB blade Whipped Dog Synthetic brush Crescent City Shaveworks "Frankinice" SS Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe Assorted A/S This will be the set up for this week. I like all the parts and they like my face so it should work out great. I know this morning's shave was super. BTW, the Frankinice SS has a pleasant earthy scent and a ton of menthol. I like it. Now go enjoy your day folks.
2020-02-24, Monday This morning I got up far beyond my usual time and the sun hurt my hurt my eye not with a languor of sameness, but with barbaric aggression! And I improvised this shot: if I had had a model instead of just the shaving gear, they would have praised me as a new Erwin Blumenfeld... And not for the size of the nose! Well, not only that, at least... The 39C was smooth and did a fantastic job, thanks to this rich soap. Highly efficient aftershaves completed a perfect shave.

Menthol Monday, February 24 Stirling Glacial Wintergreen~~Simpson PL10~~Heljestrand MK32~~Super-Mentholated Florida Water Have a "chilly" day!
I think I'm what made it "barely acceptable." Weak beard, sensitive skin. I can't use DEs, SEs, or Injectors. I was doing pretty well with the OBC, but then something "switched." There was no irritation today, but the shave wasn't as close as I've had before. I still enjoyed the shave.
