Tuesday: Omega Silvertip Ming Shi TTO/Super Max day 3 Arko shaving stick Arko Aqua A/S gel Lubriderm unscented moisturizer Aramis EDT I really love Arko soap, because it always delivers great lather and skincare.

The Aqua gel has a fantastic cooling and soothing feeling, and today I needed it, because the Super Max started to pull a little too much. A very good shave today.
