Today's shave Hot water wash with Nivea men's face wash and a washcloth FS silvertip Reef Point Test Depth ATT Calipso m1 Astra ss (1) RP Test Depth aftershave balm Today's shave was a bit lack luster. The FS silvertip seemed to be stingy with the large amounts of lather it made. RP test depth does smell very nice. A new to me razor, the ATT Calipso. I feel decently shaved, but i had to work get here. It's very mild (if that's your thing, this one is supremely mild). Feather light, it does sing when your on point, but its a very narrow window of operation. Jury is still out, but it was like kissing your sister. I predict a search for a r or h plate when i get round to it. Finished with the matching balm. Seriously hope y'all did as well, or better.

Thank goodness I brought my coldest soaps, balms, and aftershaves to Florida with me because it's ungodly hot here. The Glacial Wintergreen trio gave me tons of menthol freeze and perfect skincare. The soap lathered with an explosion and I had a perfect three pass BBS shave. The balm felt so moisturizing, soothing, as well as frigid, and the witch hazel gave me a menthol blast which off the charts. My wife said she could smell the wintergreen and menthol as soon as I opened the bathroom door when I came out! Now, we're going for breakfast and we'll sit in the sun a little - damn, it's already 83 and it feels like a sauna! lollllllll Have a great day, my friends!
The C3 did it again. This razor gives one of the most enjoyable, close, and smooth shaves ever. No kidding. Hot water preparation AOS Lavender PSO Mike's Natural Soaps Hungarian Lavender Simpson Case Best Badger Schick C3 NOS Dutch Schick (5) AOS Lavender After Shave Balm Happy shaving - Karl

Another great shave. Finished with Glacial Lemon. Holy cow does that stuff pack a punch! For a minute there I thought I was going to have to end up in the chemical burn unit of the local hospital. Fortunately all ended well. Shave on, gentlemen!

Parker Variant razor GSB blade Maggard Synthetic brush TSD Iced Lemongrass SS Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe TSD Lemongrass A/S w/2X menthol Very pleasant shave today as all the ingredients liked each other and played nice. Getting ready for all the incoming rain over the next few day. Hope all is well for y'all. Now go enjoy your day folks
6/20 Parker Finest Badger Brush Sterling Orange Chill Soap 1937 Gillette Sheraton Gillette GSB Blade Fine Accouterments Italian Citrus Aftershave Splash Aqua di Parma Colonia I love the menthol in the Sterling soap that starts the shave off with a straight up orange scent. It smells like you cut open an orange and mixed it with some menthol soap. Then a two pass DFS with the open comb TTO Sheraton which is a somewhat aggressive razor. The finish with a wake up of Fine splash on with the accompanying shot of cologne and I am shaved smooth and smell like a gentleman.
I'm so reluctant to try my new OneBlade Core, I'm afraid it's going to fall apart, or the blade with move during the shave. I'll give it a go in the next couple of hours. Wish me luck.
