    Wow, and my wife gets on me for taken up two shelves in the bathroom cabinet. She states that she will start calling me “Duane” (Reference to the Duane Reade pharmacies here in NY). I would prefer Pasteurs.

    I must say, that looks impressive, Mr. Cawtuh. Oh, I already DID say that :)).

    A "relaxing" shave today, as we will be up around 90. 0:25 to load the Acqua Shaving Cream Soap(Razorock)onto the brush(Stoylin "li'l brudder). Lots got on, I'll say that right now. 2 solid passes, but three weepers just appeared out of nowhere. Cleared off all the Astroturf in good form.I was careful with the Aqua Velva not to create a Niagra Falls, and I may have been TOO careful, as I didn't get that much onto the face and neck. As it is, I think the soap scent outdoes that of the Aqua Velva by a little bit. I'm not sure I like THAT, as the Acqua is just your essential spring water scent. Need a LITTLE more AV next time. Pretty Excellent.

    I’ve seen your shavemobiles before, Bill, and have to say your SWMBO is a definite keeper!

    Zingari Man SS - The Wanderer (Barbershop)
    Simpson Chubby 2 Synthetic - Royal Pearl
    Drew Dick Damascus - Green Kirinite
    Zingari Man ASB
    Floid AS - Black

    Chubby 2 and Zingari Man Shave Soap....wowzers. Very nice lather today, a mix of bowl and face lathering, with tons of volume, cushion, density, wonderful forward barbershop fragrance. Definitely one of the top soaps in my world for ease of sliding a straight razor over skin. Great in between pass face feel, plenty of slick for follow up buffing or touch up. Frigga easily swiped 48 hours of growth in 3 passes, XTG, XTG, ATG. No shenanigans, just BBS smooth skin. Followed with Zingari Man ASB, a light milky balm/lotion in appearance, not too greasy, quickly absorbed. Finished off with a new aftershave (trial size) of Floid Black.

    Hope everyone has a Sensational Saturday!

    timabababaluka No exceptions. Except.....

    My concern would be the citronella (although I do like eucalyptus). There's no doubt in my mind, though, that it's a solid performer--that mutton tallow is nice! :D

    Great shave report, Tim. To put on my pre-retirement hat, it appears highly unlikely that you will be renouncing your shavette to straight razor journey! Good for you, hope it cools down a bit for you and yours!

    Thanks, Joe! Just waiting for that catastrophic failure resulting from feeling too secure too quickly ;):D
