Razor: GEM Featherweight 1950's era
Blade: Treet Super SE
Brush: JR#161 NY Mets Special Edition
Soap: Catie's Bubbles "Barnegat Bay"
Post: Hot/Cold rinse, alum block, cold towelx2, Dominello Vitali Calming Post Shave Moisturizer
After Shave: The one and only Clubman Virgin Island Bay Rum
For the final shave of the work/shave week, I decided to take a trip down the Shore(we don't "go to the beach" here in NJ). Catie's Bubbles "Barnegat Bay" was the choice. It's actually made down the Shore in Forked River NJ. After whipping up a fine,slick, great smelling lather with JR#161, the GEM/Treet duo gave its last full measure before heading to the blade bank. 2.5 passes with some clean up. The blade was finally starting to tug some. But hey, it made it to Friday which is all I ask.
Splashed on some VIBR and TGIF was off.
The picture is not mine. It is a shot of sunrise on Long Beach Island however.
