    Shave of the Week Starting 7/6/2020

    Gillette Red Tip razor
    Silver Star blade
    JR #85 brush
    Proraso Green SS
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Proraso Green A/S

    Long long time since I used the Red Tip and it was just crying on the shelf "Use me, Use me" so I will this week. All these parts like each other so I'm thinking that wonderful shaves will be the result. Now go enjoy your day folks.

    Shower Soap - Echt Kölnisch Wasser "4711" body wash (originally by Mülhens)

    Razor - Stirling Soap's Slant
    Blade - [​IMG] *2nd Shave
    Shave Brush - Wood Razor's TruStone Turquoise (with 24mm Synthetic Nylon Knot by The Golden Nib)
    Chrome Razor/Brush Stand
    Shave Soap - Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements "11235" *(discontinued)
    Scuttle by Karen's Pottery
    Aftershave - Echt Kölnisch Wasser "4711" (originally by Mülhens)
    Deodorant - Heart J Creations - "Citrus Neroli" *Custom Scent
    Fragrance - Echt Kölnisch Wasser "4711 Remix" Eau de Cologne

    I will shave in the morning but will need to go for DFS and be careful. I got a touch of razor burn from my Gillette Red Tip on the Sunday shave. Got too brave with it. Going to back off a bit. I may be adding some PAA Chill Mill menthol crystals to this for more comfort as well. Oh, and I forgot to mention that I am going to include my PAA pre-shave soap to attempt to help this discontinued soap last longer.

    I woke up at a shameful hour!
    But, in fact, I'm not ashamed: I have the constitutional right to do nothing. At least, I think so...

    Today is a rather hot and dry day and I am told that even in the South the bad weather has passed: all the thalassophiles will be happy!

    It has been pointed out to me that my yesterday's shave was decidedly ecclesiastic: Vatican stuff, abbeys and monks.
    There are people who spend their time doing the fleas to me...
    To avoid a rebound effect, today I've limited the use to abbeys only: I wouldn't want to go to withdrawal crisis!

    The Progress, still under observation, has confirmed its efficiency: I am smooth and fragrant.

    I hope you will appreciate the creative effort of adding lavender spikes to today's photo and the one to obtain a chromatic continuity: the green handle of the brush in tone with the green of the fields and the lavender color of the lavender in tone with the lavender cream.

    OK... I'm lying. I just made it up now after I saw the picture!
    Why doesn't Oumo make handles in more conventional colors?

    Menthol Monday's Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Ingram Shave Cream
    Tom's B400 Two-band Badger
    Brass TAR
    Gillette Silver Blue
    CWR
    Osage Rub

    It was a fantastic shave today with the Brass TAR. The Ingram Shave Cream face-lathered well with my Tom's B400 Two-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Brass TAR with a Gillette Silver Blue blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    My English failed?
    What's the expression to say someone's picking on me?

    They're "picking" on me. Just like the "Veg" haters.
