I thought you might see some humor in that.

 

I did, where did you find that picture, it was very appropriate.
I gave my last set of AA batteries to some friends when we were at Sesame place last weekend and forgot to refill.
My fault, won't happen again.

 

Just went to Google image search and typed in rubber duck. There's all kinds to choose from. This was the only one with a camera.

 

Friday:

Omega Wooden Handle
Super Speed/Rapira day 2
Proraso Aloe & Green Tea SS
Svoboda AS Balsam
JHL Cologne

Ohhhhhh, did that feel good - a shave with this Proraso white-bowled soap is a real pleasure. The scent is lovely, the lather is perfect, and the skincare cannot be beaten. As always, the Svoboda balsam delivers its cooling and soothing finish - I LOVE it! :biggrin:

Very nice shave this morning, except for a nick right below my lip where I was in a hurry and set the straight down too hard on my skin. I did three passes: first and third passes with the straight, second pass with the Futur.

FRIDAY!



Muhle R106
Vikings Sword
Penworks Finest
Monsavon
Prorasso White ASB

Happy Friday everyone!! Today has started out absolutely GREAT! My daughter slept the whole night, I had a long awaited update for my phone uploaded, and I had an AMAZING shave!

My Monsavon (finally) arived yesterday! I was very excited to come home and see it. My 1 yr old wasn't too happy as she thought it was some kind of food and threw a tantrum because I wouldn't give it to her. I used it this morning and it lathered up very nice! I can't describe the scent...all I can tell is something resembles citrus is in there? Anyway, the lather was great, the blade was sharp and the result was most certainly a DFS!!

It is a great soap people! I will be using this one too throughout winter as it leaves the face perfect...not oily and not dry!

AOS Lavender Preshave Oil
Godrej MM/Dalan D'men Megalather
Nivea AS Balm
Pinaud Clubman

oooh daddy I am close today. It's been 2 days since my last shave and I was jonesin hard. I had a little too much water in my lather today so I added some D'men, and POW! Turkish Lather Explosion. So after spreading 3 luscious coats on with the Case I am DFS+ on the neck, BBS everywhere else. This brush is so soft that it doesn't matter in which manner I apply lather, be it scrub, dab, paint, whatever - I can't feel the bristles. It's simply the quintessence of comfort. Verdict: Fresh.

Merkur 45
Schick II Twin (D2)
Knotty Badger Silvertip
Tet-A-Tet cream and aftershave

Second shave with the Schick II Twin. I picked the razor that had the most extreme blade flexing to see how it worked. It actually worked pretty well again.

First shave with Tet-A-Tet. (I got them in a Bag of Cookies, Thanks JoAnna!) Very nice stuff. I wasn't expecting the menthol levels from the aftershave. Quite nice.

 

I have some omega cream and proraso ASB, wainting for me in Poland, and yesterday secret santa left a very proraso christmas gist for me:biggrin:
