    Thursday morning:

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Shark day 6
    RVT Frosty Bay Rum SS
    Prep ASB
    Krampert’s Bay Rum AS Splash
    Azzaro Wanted By Night EdP

    Two gorgeous bay rum scents that are very different, yet they both match each other very well. Mo’s Frosty Bay Rum soap is not quite as spicy as the Krampert’s but it’s still so nice - it has a very clovey note to it which I love. It lathered fabulously and the menthol sensation, although not intense still felt great. The Prep added its own special chilly soothing, and the Krampert’s Bay Rum aftershave’s scent is magnificent - that’s where you get that mixture of spice, cinnamon, and clove coming together. The sensation is so moisturizing as well as ultra soothing. This Wanted By Night from Azzaro has a lovely scent - just two sprays are enough. Another brilliant BBS shave![​IMG]

    Yaqi Metal Timberwolf - Signature Soaps Eboracum - The Leaf Razor (3 blade option) - Al-Rehab Dakar EDP

    A very interesting deviation from the norm today. I was always intrigued by the Leaf but had no desire to bear the cost of importing it from the US. Last week I discovered it for sale in the UK and jumped at the opportunity. Not a seductive razor.....more wham bam thank you ma'am. It was all over before I got properly started!

    Sounds like Krampert's has more clove than Frosty, right?

    Thursday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    Cremo Shave Stick
    B-400 Badger
    Stick Schick
    Schick
    CWR
    Cella Balsamo Dopobarba

    The Cremo Shave Stick face-lathered well with the B-400 Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Stick Schick with a Schick blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Cella Balsamo Dopobarba. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Here's the video.

    Bewildered by the measures taken by those who have neither the experience nor the understanding of the problem and, therefore, not even the ability to choose the measures to counter (if possible) the CoronaVirus epidemic I continue to live as usual.

    And to shave as usual...

    Lots of snow here over the last week or so. This is probably my last shave for February. These tools worked well throughout the month. I'll probably do another rule next month.

    Barbasol FH/Suneko (2). Pretty compelling case for not spending large on a modern aggressive razor.[​IMG]

    Love this Gillette Injector with the Schick Twin blades. Super smooth and the blades just last forever with well over 2 dozen shaves with the first set out of the cartridge. The best twin blades that I’ve ever used. A great evening and shaves to all....
