    WEDNESDAY
    My last shave at home for the next two days as the wife & I are heading out of town today for a lil' R&R.
    I'll be checking in 'remotely' when I can.
    Have a great Hump Day, all!

    Had another great shave again today (3 in a row). I'm not sure I'll ever be a fan of the Toro razor, the base plate has really sharp corners that wanna dig in if not careful. The Acadian Spice has an odd scent but the performance is great. The AS left my face feeling fantastic without the "burn" typical of my other BR aftershaves.

    Do you need a permit to have that brush? Looks good. Have you tried to unscrew the top. I've read that originally they had interchangeable heads.

    I'm with you on the Super-Max Platinums. I picked some up last year based on a review. I still use them on occasion to see if it was my technique, but they pull a lot so it's one and done. I use a very light touch and find Feathers are my go to blade.

    Wednesday March 18, 2015 "Day off Shave"

    Pre Shave: Hot Shower with Dove Soap for deep face clean
    Prep: Homemade Preshave oil with peppermint.
    Brush: Omega Boar 65
    Soap: VDH M-bomb (8 drops)
    Razor: Merkur Futur
    Blade: Astra SP
    Post Shave: Gentleman Jon Alum
    After Shave: Witch Hazel with Peppermint, Nivea cooling post shave balm, Proraso Pre/Post, Family Dollar Spice aftershave.

    Thoughts: What a great shave today, I went back to my Futur after a break from it while using my new BarberPole. The shave was smooth and irritation free as expected. The VDH was great once again and by adding the m-bomb from The Shave Den Shop makes VDH a very luxurious soap! I was in a Spice mood today so I went with the Family Dollar Spice after shave, I hadn't used it in a while and what a treat it was to venture back to :). Hope everyone has a great day! Shave on and enjoy! God Bless :)
