You guys are wonderful. I don't what else to say.

 

Half way through the week Clint. Have a good day.

 

The Rockwell 6s continues to impress. Great lather from Dr. Jon's and three comfortable passes with a feather and the R6 plate. This shave was so easy - I allowed the weight of the razor to do all the work. My allergies are kicking in, so the scent was muted today, but I enjoy 1803 and the skincare the aftershave offers.

Marvelous shave with the Schick Xtreme3 this morning. Three passes for a dolphin smooth and refreshing finish. Enjoy your day friends.

 

Brought out the BG, had to try it with a Super Pro. Very light stubble today, it was a simple 1 pass ATG and light buffing. The Super Pro was sharp and efficient. A tad more blade feel than the Pro, which I like. Not as smooth feeling as the Pro, but very nice still. I think the razor has something to do with taming it a bit. Left my face feeling smooth and almost rubbery like. The Stirling Sandalwood & Proraso Red worked beautifully together leaving my face soft and supple. Great combo indeed. Something of note I might say. Colonial dropped the Brass General $10, now there are no excuses gents, it's a fabulous razor. I succumbed to Colonials temptation and seductive powers........... Yes, I bought another. The Lady rolled her eyes at me last night. Truly, I have no shame......
Have a great day and shaves Gents!!!!!

Nice results, but it was a first time face lathering with the 2000 and I didn't use enough product. The first pass was golden, but didn't really have enough for a second pass. Didn't really need more than a little touch up luckily.

 

Great picture, my friend!

 

I have to pick up my new Stirling stuff later on today at the post office but before that I'm going to visit Dad at the hospital. I opted this morning for another face-freezing shave, so I used the Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo soap, the Glacial Spearmint balm, and the Osage Rub. Three passes did the job beautifully. Now, the wife and I are going to hit the road.

 

Thank you Roby.
