The box has arrived!! After opening the box I got a big whiff of Bay Rum. The Kramperts Bay Rum bottle had leaked out. Here are some pics. Here are some of the items that I will be trying this week.
4/21/2015 Tobacco Tuesday! Nationwide Box Tour! Prep: Hot shower with Neutrogena Face Wash with menthol, home made PSO Razor: Muhle R41 (2010), H. Boker straight razor Blade: Gillette Thin Blade (1) Brush: Vie Long Horse Hair Soap: Crabtree & Evelyn - Nomad After: Home made ASB, Das Boom - Chicago Cologne: 1969 I will be using some of the items from the Nationwide Box Tour this week. I have had the Nomad soap on my wish list. It whipped up pretty well with the Vie Long brush. I probably needed to use more product. The Boker was flawless in performance. The Gillette Thin Blade is not as sharp as the Astra SP, but it performed well. The Das Boom - Chicago has the sweet pipe tobacco with musk scent. The musk disappeared pretty quickly. The pipe tobacco scent is still going strong. The 1969 has a light amberish scent mixed with a clean soapish powerdery scent. It plays well with the Das Boom - Chicago. All things considered it was a Darn Fine Shave. Have a blessed day!
4/22/2015 Nationwide Box Tour! Prep: Hot shower with Neutrogena Face Wash with menthol, home made PSO Razor: Muhle R41 (2013), Dubl Duck Goldedge straight razor Blade: Gillette Thin Blade (2) Brush: Turkish #6 Soap: Strop Shoppe - Russian Tea After: Home made ASB, CO Bigelow Face Gel Cologne: Florida Water Nationwide Box Tour day 2. The #6 brush whipped up the Russian Tea into a thick and slick lather. The Russian Tea has a wonderfully spicy black tea scent. It smelled so good that I wanted to taste it. The Duck did a great job. The Thin Blade is on it's last leg, but did a decent job. The Bigelow Face Gel left my face feeling good. The Florida Water cologne started off strong but has not lasted. I can barely smell it 4 hours later. All in all it was a Darn Fine Shave. Have a blessed day!
4/23/2015 Nationwide Box Tour! Prep: Hot shower with Neutrogena Face Wash with menthol, home made PSO Razor: Cobra Classic, CMON Filarmonica Doble Temple straight razor Blade: Feather Pro Light (4) Brush: Vie Long Horse Hair Soap: Shiner Gold shave soap After: Home made ASB, Guess Man after shave balm Cologne: 1969 I am using items from the Nationwide Box Tour this week. The Shiner Gold was whipped up wonderfully by the Vie Long brush. The lather was thick and slick with a scent of mint. The Fily and the Cobra worked well. The Guess Man ASB is a good moisturizer with a light scent and the 1969 will have me smelling good for the rest of the day. Have a blessed day!
4/24/2015 Nationwide Box Tour! Prep: Hot shower with Neutrogena Face Wash with menthol, home made PSO Razor: Muhle R41 (2010), Hamburg Concave Quick Cutter straight razor Blade: Astra SP (3) Brush: Turkish #6 Soap: Stirling - Vanilla Sandalwood After: Home made ASB, Nivea after shave balm Cologne: 1969 I am using items from the Nationwide Box Tour this week. The Vanilla Sandalwood was whipped up nicely by the #6 brush. It has a light sandalwood scent in the background and the sweetness of Vanilla on top. The R41 and the Quick Cutter made short work of the stubble this morning. The Nivea ASB brought the moisturizing and the 1969 will have me smelling good all day. All in all it was another Darn Fine Shave. Have a blessed day!
