    Shave of the Week!!

    Fine "Marvel" razor
    Astra SP/GSB blade
    Whipped Dog Synthetic brush
    Crescent City Shaveworks "Frankinice" SS
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Assorted A/S

    This will be the set up for this week. I like all the parts and they like my face so it should work out great. I know this morning's shave was super. BTW, the Frankinice SS has a pleasant earthy scent and a ton of menthol. I like it. Now go enjoy your day folks.

    This morning I got up far beyond my usual time and the sun hurt my hurt my eye not with a languor of sameness, but with barbaric aggression!

    And I improvised this shot: if I had had a model instead of just the shaving gear, they would have praised me as a new Erwin Blumenfeld...
    And not for the size of the nose!
    Well, not only that, at least...

    The 39C was smooth and did a fantastic job, thanks to this rich soap.
    Highly efficient aftershaves completed a perfect shave.

    I think I'm what made it "barely acceptable." Weak beard, sensitive skin. I can't use DEs, SEs, or Injectors. I was doing pretty well with the OBC, but then something "switched." There was no irritation today, but the shave wasn't as close as I've had before. I still enjoyed the shave. ;)
