Great B&W shot: you really nailed that gear!

Sunny colors and picture!

2020-10-15, Thursday

I slept like a log and when I woke up, I was greeted by thick rain and a gray sky: beautiful.
I'm really tired of having the sun on me all day long.
Of course... for those who are forced to go out is no fun, but for those who can stay at home and possibly light the fireplace is very nice.

With these colors I could use matching fragrances: the northern European shades suit much better my tastes.
I love Dutch painters, I'm not much interested in windmills, even if their grandeur impressed me a lot. Let's not talk about cheese!
But, these soaps and their fragrances, are exceptional to my nose.

The small Albionic brush continues to satisfy me enormously, and the razor...there are few of them who did not appreciate it!

Perfect day for the British EdT, which takes me to gray days of decades ago.
Smooth, fragrant and without sun in my eyes, I am really happy!

Not sure what I like better, Sergio. The view out your window; the framing of your photo or the chosen shave gear. So, I will call all three "molto bello".

Thank you, Joseph: a shot of self confidence!

Thank you.

Thursday's Birthday Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Proraso Red
Jayaruh #1
Gillette 46-47 Aristocrat
Gillette Silver Blue
CWR
Granddad's Blend AS

Today's shave celebrates my 73rd trip around the sun. The Proraso Red Shaving Soap face-lathered well with Jayaruh #1 Brush. Two passes and touch ups with my birth era Gillette 46-47 Aristocrat razor with a Gillette Silver Blue blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Granddad's Blend AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Have a great day!​

Many happy returns Jim @Jayaruh
