Jump start after a long weekend Hot water wash with a washcloth and donkey milk soap @oscar11/ omega knot Bombed Soap Commander Vision Gillette pre-war fat handle tech Gillette platinum-plus (1) Omega Alum Iced Aqua Velva ice blue Today's shave was nice. A cool eye opening shave. I was able to swirl my oscar11 better than i remembered. The trick is not to press too much to achieve the splay, ease into it. It made very nice cool lather. I'm beginning to think the tech is magic, it's so mild, but shaves me so close. I'm not sure how it achieves what much more aggressive razors do, but for where I'm at, it does. Finished with alum and ice blue. Fine jump start shave (sparky should be proud). Hope y'all did as well, or better. I love this compact case, but i think it wasn't made with this razor.

There is a pass-around going on from @twhite if you are interested in trying this razor and two others. Great opportunity! Really enjoyable shave with this combination. Soap Commander is great soap. The @Jayaruh #142 brush is becoming one of my favorites. Nice and relaxing experience all around this morning. Have a great day!

SOTD May 30, 2017 Prep: Hot Shower. Razor: RazoRock MJ-90 Blade: Gillette 7 o'clock SS (Green) Lather: DR Harris Lavender Brush: RazoRock 400 Aftershave: Fine Lavender Wonderful shave, I am really starting to enjoy using creams and shave sticks much more, something I wasn't into 6 months ago. The MJ-90 is very mild, I have senstive skin so this type of razor is right up my alley. I'm Lavendered out.

Anniversary SOTD with my new Parker Varient. Very very very nice shave today. Likely the closest shave I have ever had with a DE, at least without extra strokes or cleanup. BBS in 2 was easy passes. Went with setting 2 today, will try higher settings in the future. Also, this Taum Sauk AS is way colder than I had expected, made me squint pretty bad, but it was very nice. Love the scent.
