Greetings,

A relaxing Sunday morning shave.

The Bath House soap provided a wonderful lather in a short space of time....I find this shaving soap similar to MWF which i like very much, it's fragrance to my nose is a very pleasant 'Spicy' scent which is a great autumn/winter soap, but i use it if and when to my fancy not just for the colder months of the year... Another soap that gives a superb post shave feel.

A wonderful smooth efficient razor & blade duo. I've mentioned in my past postings that the shaving products produced in the sub continents don't get the credit they rightly deserve.

A enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report...Finishing to the shave off with a few small squirts of OUD 24 Hours EdP to the pulse points..

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy your Sunday ladies & gentlemen.

 

Good early morning gents. Just got relieved from my 4 hour post of fire watch. It’s 2 Am right now and figured I’d go ahead and get the shave done. I got a date later on today so I figured I’d break out something new to wear later on today. Fragrance is issey Miyake Nuit D’issey edt. Opens up with a nice kick of pink pepper and grapefruit. And the dry down being my favorite, of leather and tonka bean. Very unique scent to my nose that I love. Anyways off to bed. Sleep well.

OCT 24 SOTD Shavette Cella Sunday

Shavette Shave # 314
Personna Hairshaper (2)
MrEE LE #10 Cashmere Knot Brush
Cella Red SS
Old Spice AS
Maggard's Alum Block
Dickinson's WH
Whiskers: 47.5 hrs



I know it's 2 Dovo consecutive shaves, but I had a great shave with it Friday so why not continue with success. Tbh, I have been lazy picking out a regular straight because I sometimes do not feel like stropping. I have been giving myself a break from straight shaving.
Cella soap is the bomb! It just explodes into a nice, slick, creamy lather. The Dovo shavette loaded with the Personna Hairshaper blade is a dynamite combo. The shaves that I get with this dynamic duo is usually off the charts and today was no exception. I could've stopped after one pass because I looked ckean-shaven with very little stragglers. Of course, I am a 2 pass shaver and after the 2nd ATG pass, I couldn't do any better. The shave was really great! There weren't any incidents to mar this shave. The alum feedback was only prevalent on my lower left neck, but that was it. Witch hazel was applied and then a double splash of Old Spice was in order. Today's shave was truly amazing! Have an awesome day guys!

 

Hopefully, let's try to shoot for it by the summer of 2022.

 

Right, just as I will be settling into Medicare. But seriously, nice-sounding time frame.

 

Hey, it will be a great way to celebrate your admittance to a milestone of being 65 and on Medicare. Don't worry, Paul, it really is not bad at all.

 

Thank you Joe, nothing serious really, just hanging around

It does smell awesome... Very unique.

 

What, Medicare or learning photos on here?

 

All of it!

 

I would agree if I can meet your Summer 2022 deadline for pics.

 

Well, you have 10 months. You have been stalling for many years before I came on the scene in Dec 2018. I think you just have to overcome this fear. It really is not hard to take a photo from your camera and download it in your comments. Really, it only takes a few min to learn and do it. I have fears in other areas and I have to learn to overcome them so I completely empathize with you.

I made a wonderful steak dinner upon our arrival home. In a little while it will be game time with Anthony. He is looking forward to it.
