SOTD December 12, 2016 Blade: Chinese Schick Razor: Schick G1 injector Brush: Trader Joe's synthetic Lather: Stirling Ozark Mountain Post: Witch hazel splash, Stirling Ozark Mountain aftershave, Nivea sensitive balm WTG, touch-up Nice shave yet again with Stirling Ozark Mountain and the G1 injector. Smooth and comfortable. I'm trying to use up this Stirling sample so I can move on to other den goodies, but it looks like I have a good many more shaves with it. Stirling samples are generous! Have a great Monday!
Hello TSD - I had a black-and-white-shave today - Mystic Water Soap "Orange Spice Tea" - The Tuxedo - RazoRock Black Hawk - Feather Professional - Alverde ASB Really nice and smooth shave ... though I think the blade is pretty much past its prime. Second pass has been a little tuggy. I'm not sure how many shaves I got from the blade ... about a dozen, I think. Time to replace it with a new one. Soap is fantastic, as usual. Never had a bad shave with a Mystic Water Soap. The scent is rather light but very pleasant - to my nose it smells more Bay-Rum-like than the actual MW Bay Rum soap itself.

Parker Variant razor Rainbow/Gillette Silver Blue blade Jayaruh #85 brush CO Bigelow SC Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe Skin Bracer A/S w/added menthol Started with the Rainbow blade in the Parker but the first stroke told me to change the blade so I grabbed a GSB and proceeded to have a wonderful Monday shave. I also find it amazing that the CO Bigelow SC never, ever fails to give a great lather and help in any combo I try. I could use it exclusively but I'm not. To many other nice products to try. Anyway, I'm ready to go do the "honey-do" list. Now go enjoy your day folks.

Spicy Menthol Monday Ginger's Garden Argan creams are legit. I got very thick and slick lather with plenty of residual slickness for a superb shave. I also love this scent. The aftershave is cooling and very moisturizing. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk
