June 2021 30-Day Rule/Focus Pix and Discussion

Excellent shave Andrew! Congrats to your son on his HS graduation and his full ride to Univ of Ala. Roll Tide!

 

Thanks, Joe!
My rough shaves are few and far between these days. I've got my angle control down. I credit that to learning to use mild razors and adjustables at their lowest setting.

Thanks, Clint!

Thank you, Andrew!

Yardley Black Label~~Simpson Emperor 3~~Pre-War US Tech/Gillette Platinum~~Ambre Loup Rania J.
I was still fairly clean-shaven after yesterday's Laune shave, so I opted for a Tech shave.
Pre-War USA Gillette Tech loaded with a fresh Gillette Platinum blade.
Soap du jour was a soap that exceeds all expectations.
Yardley Black Label is a soap, I wish every shaver could experience at least once.
New juice again and this one is a real winner.

​

Ambre Loup by Rania J is a Amber Woody fragrance for women and men. Ambre Loup was launched in 2012. The nose behind this fragrance is Rania Jouaneh. Top notes are Cloves and Spices; middle notes are Labdanum, Vanilla Absolute and Peru Balsam; base notes are Guaiac Wood, Agarwood (Oud) and Cedar.

Here's my review from Fragrantica:​

Review is based upon an 80% alcohol batch.
Ok, this juice awoke a memory in me, that I considered long since disappeared. With the first spray, I got an olfactory, face-full of my grandfather's humidor. He was a confirmed cigar smoker, but rather than the acrid stench of a burning cigar (yuck), this amber bomb, with its clove and cinnamon notes, embodies the moist, fresh, cured tobacco of a fine Cuban cigar (yummy) resting comfortably in a high-quality humidor. I consider this fragrance leaning heavily towards the masculine, as I wouldn't care to smell this on a woman, but that's a personal opinion.
The oud is softened with vanilla and balsam, so if you are looking for a "barnyardy" note, you'll be disappointed. Not I, because if I want barnyard, I'll reach for something else. This is a creamy and luxurious gourmand perfume with real longevity. Full day without a problem. Projection is quite strong at the onset, but as it dries down the sillage retreats to respectable levels. If you are an amber-lover, this juice is just what the doctor ordered. This is my third bottle form the house of Rania J. and they have all been winners.
Highly recommended.​

 

Fabulous tech shave and pic Joseph.Hope you are well..Happy Friday.

Sous vide whole brisket experiment. I'm only at the first step. Smoking the brisket for three hours. I'm waiting for the smoker to come up to temp. Step two and possibly the toughest part will be making it fit into a vacuum seal bag. Then into the water bath for 36 hours at 155°. Hopefully Sunday dinner will be a success.
