Friday's Shave Cold Water Wash Col. Conk Bay Rum Jayaruh #339 Boar Damaskeene OC Gem Glue Star SE CWR Lucky Tiger My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Col. Conk Bay Rum Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #339 Boar brush. I did two passes with the Damaskeene OC razor with a Gem Glue Star SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Lucky Tiger AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Friday’s shave: L’Oreal Men Expert Facial Wash Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster Super Speed/7 AM day 2 RVT Green Fields SS Prep ASB Acqua di Selva Cologne This was a most enjoyable and effortless BBS shave - all it took were two passes to get it done.

Have a great weekend!
22 February 2019 One more shave with the Merkur 45 tomorrow. It's OK for a travel razor and even though I'm just edging around my beard these days, I can't get used to the lack-o-weight.
Weber DLC razor Astra SP blade Vie-Long Silver Tip brush Fume SS Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe Daxton A/S Needed a change from the G4/74 combo. That's a great combo, giving me tremendous shaves but...had to have a change. And a fine shave was had for sure. All the parts liked each other and my face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.
