    Wow! What an AWESOME lather and shave with the Palmolive. Better than C. O. Bigelow. (Of which I have two full tubes if anyone's interested in a trade. ;))

    Oh yeah! Third shave in a row with this group, one more to go. I'm thinking weekly set-ups from now on.

    The weekend! Even though we lose an hour’s sleep on Sunday it’s still a glorious thing! Going old school Cella for the mid-week shave had me thinking about old school scents and so today’s soap of the day is TOBS Sandalwood. Nothing hits me as old school quite as much as this one. Love it!

    I have been pining for the General and so succumbed to the temptation though the Timeless OC .95 SS was on deck. The Sunday shave will belong to that scalloped and polished beauty.

    Thoroughly enjoyable three pass BBS shave. Topped it off with some Blackstone Sandalwood balm and Guerlain Santal Royal.

    Well let’s get through the day, snow and hopefully, safe home to those you hold dear. Happy Friday all!

    Great shave! I’ve seen the Blackstone products on sale at Marshall’s and TJ Maxx. I’ve been tempted to get some.

    It is a new product and I believe it comes in four scents.

    Are the Cremo shave sticks as readily available as their other products?

    Well sir, perhaps I'll see you over there next week! My other ulterior motive for weekly sets is to use up some creams that are aging.
