The window's missing, but at 2:30 a.m. it wasn't usable.

I felt like Floris and that's exactly why I used it.
Merkur's slant, armed with SOC, was very mild even against the grain.

I changed the balsam because I wanted a different feeling.
And I had to look for the Strauss CD.
It was the last one: I should have started from the bottom...

Friday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Col. Conk Amber
Jayaruh #1
Schick C3 Repeater
Schick Proline
CWR
Aqua Velva 5 in 1 ASB

The Col. Conk Amber face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #1 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick C3 Repeater with a Schick Proline blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva 5 in 1 ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Have a great day!​

 

Is that a new MW, Joseph?(Mystic Water). I'm not familiar with that one.

 

Friday:

cool shower with Antiquaromas Black Pepper & Ginger bar soap
Homemade PSO
Gillette RedTip 3+ passes
Parker Platinum SS (2)
Mondial Tabacco Verde soap in a warm mug
Century boar
Thayers Lavender WH
Tabac A/S

Second time using this Parker blade. I used it for the first time awhile back and it's been sitting in the dugout waiting another turn. I seem to recall the first shave was okay but today it got binned. I hadn't shaved in a few days so I had extra stubble but most decent blades in the RedTip would have produced a better shave with fewer strokes.

The weighted forearm gig continues to work well, despite SWMBO’s conviction that she will hear a thump and rush in to discover my decapitated noggin on the floor! SWMBO learned the tale of the Tybee Island face slashing almost 5 yrs ago from my daughter-in-law who treated me that morning. Let’s just say she’s not a fan of my straight shaving pursuits.

Despite all that, the first WTG mug pass with the Dovo Special was a success, and did take a little less time than yesterday. The Valet Auto Strop VC4 with the standard M-Bombed Nancy Boy accompaniment performed in its usual exemplary manor to complete the shave and bloodlessly deliver your happy narrator to velveteen BBS land in short order. I feel cool, clean, and velveteen!

RAZOR: Dovo Special and Valet Auto Strop VC4
BLADE: Feather FHS-10
PREP: Cold water rinse followed by Chel Cooling Gel used as a preshave
BRUSH: Jayaruh Custom Rosewood Silvertip Badger #378
CREAM: Nancy Boy Signature w/ 6 drops of M-Bomb
POSTSHAVE: Cold water wash with Glyce Glycerin soap followed by Humphreys Lilac WH and Nancy Boy Signature Scent Cooling After-Shave Gel.
